    Contact the card manufacturer and ask if there plugin supports slaved homing.

    The manufacturer not answer.

    A similar problem on two cards purchased in different places.
    Slave A_axis stops along with Y_axis (switch YHome).
    It is imposible to correct skew of the axis(((

    Make sure that "Home Slave with Master" in General Config is NOT checked.

    Thanks for your answer.
    Yes: "General Config"->"Home Slave with Master" is not checked.
    If A_axes is not slave, all 4 home swiches works good.

    Sounds like the plugin does not support slaved homing.

    Hello

    I have the same card mkx-IV driver v2.39.9 and mach3.
    Have you been able to solve your problem?

    I have a switch on each motor of my axis (Y & A).
    Axis A is slave to the Y axis.
    When I run a RefHome RefHome (2),
    1- Y and A move together until touching switch Y.
    2- Y and A stop
    3- Nothing happens but I have to trigger switch A by hand.
    4- Y and A go back.

    If I resume the step by first releasing the switch A
    1- Y and A move together until touching switch A.
    2- Y and A do not stop
    3- I trigger the Y switch by hand.
    4- Y and A stop
    5- Y and A go back.

    An idea of ??why this behavior?
