Ok I have set up my mill with 3 switches one at +Z max one at -X max and one at -Y max. All wired in series set to NC and wired too input pin 12. In ports and pins I have X,Y,&Z home all enabled and set to pin 12. I also have limit -X,-Y,&+Z set to pin 12 enabled. And in the homing/limits menu I have set X&Y to home neg.
So when I hit ref all Z moves up and trips the home switch, then backs off. As soon as I hear the click of the switch releasing it trips "limit switch tripped" if I disable the limit side and just leave the homing enabled it homes just fine. But with the limits enabled it trips limit every time... I thought mach ignored limits when homing? Am I doing something wrong here?? I'm currently short on inputs till I get my second lpt port and bob and I'm out of switches.. does each axis need a separate pin? I will eventually set it up with limits on both sides and each axis on a separate input but it mite take me a couple weeks.
