Two things come to mind: 1 - a machine with correctly configured soft limits and homing will never touch a limit switch. 2 - if you have separate positive and negative limits for an axis, EMC2 already does what you ask when you use "override limits" to jog after hitting a limit switch. This is the customary way to get off a switch. If you're not getting this behavior, please give very specific details about what version you are running, your setup, and what exactly you're doing and seeing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensign option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
