I do not know, what is boolean, but You are right - it did not want to work, because limit/homing switches are bit pins, mux2 inputs and output are float. So I created mux2bit component, where I fixed this... So that part is working. 2012/1/28 Spiderdab <77...@tiscali.it>: >> > I have another problem: >> > >> > Z should home on its upper position and stay there. >> > So in INI file I set: >> > HOME = 180.000 >> > HOME_OFFSET = 180.00 >> >> > It homes, sets joint coordinates to 180 and goes to 0 ignoring HOME = 180. >> >> It's been a while, but I think HOME_OFFSET is the distance from the >> switch point to the home position, so if the home switch is at 180 and >> the home position is 180 then HOME_OFFSET is zero. >> >> > For what i know OFFSET should be the same of HOME, if you want the joint > to stay there.

Andy, it is working correctly up to the point, where it trips the switch and sets the joint position as stated by home_offset. The mysterious part is: Why on earth it has to move to 0, when HOME is set to be equal with HOME_OFFSET, sho it should just stay there... I am using 2.5.pre2-18-g799075f BTW the best part is that both Y joints also are homing in their positive end and they work correctly.
