General Mach Discussion / Dual Axis homing

« on: July 01, 2012, 10:03:20 AM »

Hello
I try a gantry milling machine with a dual X axis (C slave) to homing.
All axis has its own reference switches. Z and Y works well.
With the hook "Home with Master Slave Axis" will stop the X axis and moves the switch again free. (C Slave the same)
Without active "Home with Master Axis" adjusted the slave axis, but the X axis run over the reference switch.


Mach3R3.043.058W-33
PlugIn: SmoothStepper_v17f

Attached is the xml

How I have to set does the homing also works with the slave?

Regards
Philipp
