I then hommed all axis and 0, 1 & 2 all went to 0 on the MDI with a * next to them all. It still said the same error message when I tried again. It seems like it wants axis(joint) 3 to be hommed also since that one still shows -0.00 with no * next to it. That is the extruder and there is no home for this axis. How can I get around this? I have the search_vel and latch_vel lines for all 3 axis's #out (commented) so technically no home or limits on machine. Axis 3 doesn't have this either. I also tried the "lsmod | grep kins" line at prompt and it just returns back to the command prompt without doing anything or showing anything ?? Did I type it wrong? It won't let me do any MDI commands either while not hommed.. Ideas??
