Thanks for the concise answer.
I would agree that you don't want to limit the machine, as much as
possible.
None the less, I did have to compromise with the input pins. I think, I
have a workable and logical setup as it is.
Separate switches to home each axis individually and ganged max limit

YES, very much so.
EMC has _always_ been configured by editing ini and hal files. Stepconf
is brand new in version 2.2, and is a "wizard" intended to make setting
up simple stepper machines easier for beginners. It is NOT t
Dean,
If I got a report about these problems in 2.2.2, I lost it.
Can you let me know what problems you encountered?
I do know of some homing problems in 2.2.1, but the ones I know about
were fixed in 2.2.2.

I am using 2.2.2
What kind of bugs? Is it possible to edit the conf file manually?
Can EMC handle sharing the home and min. limit switch on each axis
individually?
Of course, I would like to avoid rewiring.
Thanks,

There are some bugs in the wizard regarding home/limit switch setup.
You may find it easier to just rewire the switches.
The "most simple" configuration is to put all the homes on one pin and
all the limits on another pin. Have a pull up resistor on ea
I was just thinking that one possibility is I could not use the switches
as 'home' switches. Just call them limits and manually home each axis.

stepconf only gives a tiny, tiny subset of all the configurations that
can be created through emc2's HAL. It sounds like your home switch
configuration may be one that is not possible. You may be able to use
custom.hal and/or inifile tweaks after stepconf has run to get the
configuration you want
Good Evening,
I am working through the setup of my router table using the Stepconf Wizard.
I have a question about how to configure my home and limit switches in
the wizard.
My machine is already setup and running using Turbocnc.
The way I already have my limits setup is:
Each axis has it's own
