Thanks for your help!!

Yes it is similar, so using the pictures i sent you my home position need to be to my left bottom corner and any movement out of home need to be -- movement, i'm right!!

thanks!

They are wired in differents pins; X axis home/limit X--- in same pin, x limit ++ in another pins, Y axis home/limit Y--- in same pin, y limit ++ in another pins.


Question sir!!
If hit the autozero, when the machine finish with the home process it should be zeros on all 3 axis?

Once it is in home with zero at all axis, if i'm going to cut a part do in need to move all axis to the far position of the axis or i can execute the gcode from home position?

When the machine is in the middle of the table, the homing direction in all axis is suppose to be a positive movement or negative movement?

Thanks!!!!!

Sir i attach a draw of the machine a build.
i don't know how to configure it or if i need to calibrate the axis.
My home and --- sw are conected to the same port, one port for x axis and another port for y axis home/-- sw and the x axis ++ limit sw "far" and y axis ++ limit sw "far" in another 2 ports, my controler have only 5 ports for home or limits sw; i only got one port left for a Z home or limit sw.
I don't know if i can put home sw and -- limit sw together or if a installed them in correct spot  like in the draw.

i'm zeroing the machine in the far position of the x axis and y axis.

This all i got right now, i will keep reading until your respond, thanks help you guys can give me.!!
thanks!

Hi to all, my name is Gerardo and i just start with this project, reading some post i fix the homing issue, but for some reason on the x axis if i hit Ref Home All  with the machine positioned close to the far limit sw it move home sw and it measure +18.5 from a corner to the other corner and the machine is moving really slow, if i execute roadrunner g-code when the machine is moving to a - position when it reach the +0.000 it is over the middle of the table and not close to the far sw like in the beginning, also this movement from a + number “+18.5” to a – number -0.005 is really fast; is faster than the homing speed, do I need set something else, thanks for any help, and sorry if I mistype.
Thanks!@
