    Default Y axis not reference - missing home switch on current axis

    Hello to all,
    new to the community and this is my first post.
    I am finished assembling my cnc router.
    I am using Pokeys57cnc controller.
    I have a problem with home switches and especially with the one on Y axis.
    I have configure them in pokeys plugin and as you can see at photo 1 it is triggered correctly.
    The problem is that when I ref all axis, machine only ref's Z and X axis and stops saying that ref completed, but without ref Y axis.
    If I manually ref Y (from diagnostics tab)M3 says that "missing home switch on current axis"
    What am I missing here??

    Default Re: Y axis not reference - missing home switch on current axis

    Hello.

    I´m sorry to tell that the photo you mentioned apparently didn´t upload.

    Nevertheless, may I suggest you interchange the conections of your Y axis switch with one of the others? In that way you may isolate whether the problem is in the switch/wiring or the controller itself. Do it at the controller.

    If you own a multimeter check the voltage at the microswitch. When open it should read the voltage level at the controller Without further information I assume it to be +5V,

    As mere curiosity, what drivers and motors are you using?

    Regards.
