General Mach Discussion / Backing off homing switches
« on: August 28, 2012, 03:55:04 PM »
I have the problem that a few people seem to have had of the gantries not backing off the homing switches properly.
The z homes but when it touches the home switch it stops. The diagnostics show that the switch is clear but the other axis will not home or just jerk a bit and stop. If I lower the z then they will home. Only the x, thats the english x btw the long axis , backs of a few steps. neither the y or the z do. Can this backing off be adjusted?

Just reading a thread I had missed and realise that I have not connected the earthing to ground. I will correct this tomorrow and see what happens.
