Hi there,
Thanks for the replies - they've cleared up a few {a lot} of the issues and created a few more...
Bubba, it sounds like you've set up your limit switches to act as home switches as well. Am I correct in thinking this (ie. is it possible to use the same switch for home and limit?)? If so, how exactly does the software work for the home switches? Do you tell it to 'home' and then it goes in a certain direction (depending on setup) until it hits the home (limit) switch and then reverse out a bit like you explained? Would this position, just off the limit switch, be home or can the machine move back further to make home a different point?
I have always avoided the subject of home switches, mainly because I never knew what they were exactly or how they worked, so I may as well learn about them sometime (like now)... I'll also go and play around with the settings in TCNC to see what I can find.
Thanks again
Warren
