Title: Home/Limit referencing.
Post by: Leeway on March 17, 2006, 01:18:17 PM

Hey fellas.
Finally had time to get my switches wired up.
I currently have the X-- and X home wired to the same switch. I am aware how to use the soft limits, but how do I get the machine to pull off of the switch automatically to a certain point? I am not sure of the accuracy of the switch, but its the best way I have right now of setting zero at the same place on the machine every time. My Y is setup the same. The X++ and Y++ limits are shared. I would just like it to pull off too. I know I can set these to be able to jog off it. I was just wanting a way to reference.
Thanks in advance.
