General Mach Discussion / Re: Spindle Relay Control Issue

I'll check this out in a couple hours when I can get back up to the school.
However, it isn't just turning off as I hit "Go to Home". If I toggle the spindle on, and it is sitting at home position, it will not start. If I jog X,Y, or Z in any direction, it will immediately turn on.
I'm no expert in it, but I would assume whatever the homing script is (nothing custom, just the default in mach3), it would quit executing after reaching home position, and not continue to lock out the spindle? Unless maybe the homing script is NOT finishing its execution, but sitting there in limbo blocking future commands, but the jog overrides it and allows the queue to clear?
