What home sequence is required for your machine? Or is there no "safe" home sequence? At present, stepconf hard-codes the homing sequence Z, X, Y, A. I intended that the configuration set the Z "home position" near the top of travel so that it X and Y can move freely in their homing sequence, above anything on the table. > Also the thing would not load without a bunch of error messages and > quitting.

Please find a way to copy the error messages over to a networked computer, because without them I am in the dark. I haven't run into this problem myself. I run stepconf-generated configuration files many times on the same machine without the need to reboot after each run.
