PoKeys / Homing on Y Axis, 2 Motors (Slave), Limit Switch
« on: May 08, 2023, 01:37:49 PM »
Hi,
I am using the Pokeys57CNC with motors 0, 1, 2, 3 connected.
Motor 0: X Axis
Motor 1: Y Axis
Motor 2: Z Axis
Motor 3: Y Axis Slave
I've got two switches per axis (Limit -, Limit +). No dedicated home switches. Home is sharing the Limit - switches.
Problem: X and Z Axis is homing fine. Y Axis homes with both Motors, but if it reaches the Limit - switch, only ONE motor stops. The Slave keeps on rotating, till I hit the emergency stop.
Should be: If the Y Axis homes with both motors, if the Limit - is hit on the Master axis, the slave should stop too.
What am I doing wrong? Where could be the problem?
I feel like I tried all combinations of settings. Sadly most of the topics and solutios reference old Versions of the Pokeys Plugin or Mach4. Buttons or Checkboxes are missing, which might be the solution.
I attached the settings of both, Mach4 and the pokeys plugin.
Best Regards,
Markus
