General Mach Discussion / Limit switch being triggered whilst homing?
« on: July 04, 2015, 08:27:00 AM »
Hi guys,
My homing and limit switches are the same and all are wired in series to the same one port.
If I hit a limit switch it is triggered straight away in mach and works great.
My problem is when I am trying to home all the axis. If I have my limit switches enabled when it homes as soon as it hits the limit/home switch Mach3 sees the limit switch triggered and just stops. I thought Mach 3 was set to ignore limit switches when homing?
If I disable the limit switches whilst homing Mach3 does home but it seems to go past the switch trigger by about 1 second before starting to back off, which is odd as when limit switch is turned on as soon as the switch is hit mach sees it and stops.
Any help would be much appreciated!.
Thanks
