    Homing question

    Mach 3 R1.84.002

    I have homing switch position on the X axis at 100mm in from the left or zero end of the mill table
    so that it is less distance to reference from middle work area. Saving time.

    That switch is active if the table is already within that 100mm of the travel.

    When referencing the axis goes in the negative direction looking for homing as it should.

    Now acording to the PDF manual, if it is active it should look in the other or positive direction for home but it doesn't.

    It just says "One or more homing switches are active....Please fix, then home"

    Now what am I doing wrong? Is it a bug?

    Thanks, Greolt

    Don't know about R1.84.002 as I have upgraded now.

    But there is a setting in Version D1.90.075 that will make this work as per manual.

    Config / General Config / Home Sw Safety / Checkbox

    All good now
