Hi Patrick

Yes, I think you need 2.1.x or above for home sequencing to work.

Also, I believe the HOME_SEQUENCE is supposed to be put into each axis 
section, like so:
[AXIS_0]
...
HOME_SEQUENCE 0
...

[AXIS_1]
...
HOME_SEQUENCE 0
...

[AXIS_2]
...
HOME_SEQUENCE 1
...

The snippets above would home X and Y simultaneously (they're both first 
in the sequence), then home Z.

The reason you don't get an error is that ini files are meant to be able 
to hold information for multiple programs, so it isn't an error if 
there's some extra unnecessary info.  You could add a completely new 
section with anything in it (it doesn't even have to be name=value 
pairs, you could just stick a bunch of text in a section, and you won't 
get any errors).
