Title: Move off Home Switch
Post by: wlbjab on April 26, 2011, 03:43:48 PM

My Z & Y axis home switches suddenly stopped working ( they are wired in series ). They used to home with Z first and it would move off switch and Y would home and move off switch. Now - Z mvoes first and hits switch and does not move off. Y will not home. Then the X axis will home and move off switch ( X axis is wired seperatley.
Any idea's?
Thanks
Will

I'm guessing you may be picking up a little noise now.  Have you tried to add any debonce and see if that helps?  Moved any wires around or anythng to induce noise?

Brett
You are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!
Wow, thank you very much. I spent 3 hours fighting the problem before I desperately posted for help.
Thanks again
Will
