I’m mot sure if you can view the state of being “homed” in HAL. If so, you could change the HAL so that you’ll have an OR or and AND component (depending if the switch is normally open or normally closed) that kind of ignores the switch in the beginning.
Or you can solve it with a multiple contact relay if you wire it as a memory relay. The bottom switch is wired to one of the contacts, and the coil energized if you engage the upper switch. Then the second set of contacts keeps the coil energized even if the upper switch disconnects. > On 11 Aug 2022, at 19:41, Alan Thomason <athoma...@h3dgamma.com> wrote: > > Hello all...We have one axis that by gravity will always go the limit if the > unpowered state.
