Yes, I believe so.
X Axis Home Pin 10 Port 1 Active low (no)
Y Axis Home Pin 13 Port 1 Active Low (No)
Z Axis Home Pin 11 Port 1 Active Low (No)
When no switches are tripped, the Ports for the above switches is black (off) and so are the Home leds for XYZ. When a switch is tripped, the led will change status and turn green for the appropriate axis port and the appropriate Home monitor led. All three switches perform the same way when their respective switch is triggered.
If I perform a "Home all" with only the home ports configured, the machine moves the first homing sequence (Z axis) up but it does not stop when the Z+ home switch is triggered... It will continue till it crashes the head at the end of travel. I have to manually hit reset to prevent damage. The same occurs if only home 1 axis at a time.
If I include configurations for the limit + pins and ports for each axis, I get a different result. When performing a homing operation with these additional settings enabled, the axis will trip the switch and the software stops the travel. However, it just sits there and does nothing else. It doesn't reset the machine coordinates, It does not back off of the switch trigger, nor does it continue to home the other axis... It just sits there with the homing led lit (on the run screen). I have to manually press the reset button to disable the homing operation. Homing on an individual axis does the same thing.
I originally set out to have both home and limit + settings enabled but the problems I encountered drove me to trying resolve one problem at a time. I have searched Google and youtube extensively but have been unsuccessful. The closest thing I came across was the G58 and G58.1 conversations. I looked for a macro that would align with the G58.1 but didn't find one so I figured the issue is elsewhere.
With much embarrassment, I've had to reach out for help...
