HELP.

I am Using the XML configuration provided by CNCRP for: (G540 + Nema 23 + 22 tooth pully (default pulley for Nema 23 CRP kits)).

And having my Homing / Limit switches set up thusly;

X++ 10
X-- 10
X Home 10

Y++ 11
Y-- 11
Y Home 11

Z++ 12
Z-- 12
Z Home 12

A++ 10
A-- 10
A Home 10

I run into a problem... The machine homes Z, Y, and X (with A moving with it as one would expect) and then after doing that successfully, tries to home A without moving X which results in some really unpleasant RP noise.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Alright, well I got that sorted out... Under Config> General Configuration> Home Slave with Master wasn't checked. That might of got shut off when I was messing around with it a week ago.

Thanks

Alright, well I got that sorted out... Under Config> General Configuration> Home Slave with Master wasn't checked.

If you have A slaved to X, then disable the A home switch, as it won't be used. "Home Slave with Master" is for homing a slaved axis with one switch.
If you want both sides of the gantry to home independently (to auto square), then you'd need to un-check Home Slave with Master, and assign the X and A switches to different pins.

and then after doing that successfully, tries to home A without moving X which results in some really unpleasant RP noise.

This may have been caused by your homing script, which by default homes Z, Y, X, and then A.
You should edit the homing script to remove the A home portion.
The default script is this:
DoButton( 24 )
DoButton( 23 )
DoButton( 22 )
DoButton( 25 )

DoOEMButton(133)
DoOEMButton(134)
DoOEMButton(135)

The last 3 lines are not needed. THe 4th line homes the A axis. Leave only the first 3 lines, and delete the rest.

DoButton( 24 )
DoButton( 23 )
DoButton( 22 )
