Greetings - I recently downloaded the latest version of LinuxCNC and installed it on my 30"x30" cnc machine that has a 20W laser. I have a parallel port that runs to a parallel port breakout board. There is a home switch on each axis, whose operation if visible via led indicators on the breakout board. The Z axis homes at location 4.000, the X and Y axis home at 0.000. The Z axis homes, the X axis homes, but the Y axis refuses to move toward 0.000 when homing. I have tried changing the sign on Scaling in the ini (or is it the hal file) and the axis does move in the correct direction using the manual move buttons in LinuxCNC. I have home set at 0.000, min limit a -1.000, max limit at 30.000". The led indicator is off unless the home switch is pressed - just like the Z & X axis. I am out of ideas and would appreciate some guidance. Kind regards, David David V.
