I am running with just the emcrsh interface. Step 1: virtually disconnect the home switch from the limit pins. Startup and drive 2 inches off the limit. Shutdown emc Step 2: virtually reconnect the home switch to the limit pins. Startup: * Verify machine is on, estop is off, joint_limit is OK * set mode manual * set home 0 The following appears on the console where I'm running emc: joint 0 on limit switch error emc/task/taskintf.cc 611: Error on axis 0, command number 76 command (EMC_AXIS_HOME) cannot be executed until the machine is out of E-stop and turned on Here is the relevant definition from the .ini file: [AXIS_0] TYPE = LINEAR MAX_VELOCITY = .40 MAX_ACCELERATION = 1.0 STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 1.25 SCALE = 4000.0 FERROR = 0.05 MIN_FERROR = 0.01 MIN_LIMIT = -0.1 MAX_LIMIT = 63.85 HOME = 0.0 #HOME_OFFSET = -0.12 HOME_OFFSET = -0.62 USE_INDEX = FALSE HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -0.2 HOME_LATCH_VEL = -0.1 HOME_FINAL_VELOCITY = 0.4 HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS = YES Specifically HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS, which should deal with this case. Is there something obvious I'm missing? I have verified that the box actually moves via the web camera. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
