Hi All I am New Here and am just getting Started I built a machine and used Mach 3 in Demo Mode which worked fine until i hit the line limit.
So I decided to make the plunge and purchased  mach 4. I am now setting it up and can't get the machine to move when i click the  Ref all home. In the  Diagnostic page it says it's homing but none of the axis move. I have to hit stop to allow the axis to once again to move using the jog buttons. Am I missing something in the pins setup. Please Help!!

Can you think of things that should be checked.
Please make a list I could check.

Thanks all
Ill post a picture of my homemade machine when I get a chance.

That sounds like a restart of Mach4 is needed. If that doesn't fix it, then you have some of the settings wrong in Mach4 or ESS plugin.

Why not start a new thread, give a brief description of your setup and include your machine.ini as a lot of things can be discovered from this.
