Title: Smooth Stepper Homing error
Post by: kencor1 on August 13, 2008, 12:17:57 PM

I just installed a smooth stepper from warp9. Everything is working well except when I try to home the machine, the Z axis will hit the home/limit switch the slowly back off, but when the y axis hits the home/limit switch it seemes as it starts the mach goes into e-stop limit switch error. I have tried different setting in the smooth stepper config and in mach Debounce, nothing seemes to help.  I have read the Manuel but it is incomplete and I just am lost right now.

Thanks,
Tom

Check out the Warp9 site. Thought i saw something posted there on limit switches.

Get the latest plugin (13c I think) it has the digital filtering options and it seems to work very well.

I was able to fix the problem by rewiring my switch's to normally closed, and they are now working properly. Thanks for the help
