resending as the message got garbled!

Hello,
 I'm in the process of setting up a 3-axis cnc.  The positive and
negative limits on each axis are all placed in series going into 1 pin
on the parallel port.  I'm trying to get the machine to home each axis
off the end of travel switches but when the machine hits the EOT
switch it also triggers the other two EOT switches (because EMC knows
they are tied serially into a single port).  I've set the
HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS and the HOME_SEQUENCE in config files
appropriately.  It seems to me that the HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS only works
for the one active axis and not all the axes.  Is that correct and as
such my configuration won't work?
  Thanks
  Andrew
