Could be a sticking limit/home switch. The INI section looks ok.

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

You can, but it might not help.
You can define the
While this isn't something you can add remotely, it's an addon that would work.
Install a solenoid "kicker" that can be triggered by an output controlled by
LCNC. Then you could send the control computer a command to kick the slide off
the limit switch so it can be re-homed - assuming that getti
In this remote configuration, at the moment I do not have access to the
graphical display. Is there a way to alter the configuration so I can
start up from the command line without a GUI interface? For most
operations, all I'll need is the emcrsh interface.

Yes, I prefer
My home and limit switches are separate. The limits (at both ends of all
axes) are wires in series and drive the hardware interlock. One axis fault
= they ALL stop. The home is its own switch and not super close to the
limit sw.
Did it fault while homing or in normal operation?

Depends on the machine. The factory limits on my supermax signal the

input to the control (now EMC) all you like but it still doesn't bring the

I have a remote device (~3000 miles away) with a single linear axis
(lead screw) that is currently on the limit switch near the home
position. I have access to the emcrsh interface. Being on the limit
apparently turns the machine off. I know that in theory I should be able
to override limits in ord
