I am using Clearpath motors on my DIY router. Mach 4 on a win10 current model PC and a PMDX-126 BOB and ESS. I have been fighting the HOME limit switches. It seems that the motor coasts past the point where the limit switch makes contact. This makes it crash into the bumper and fault the Clearpath motor.


I wish I could make the CP motor stop faulting but it seems that is not an option.


I know the CP motors don't actually coast and this happens on every axis so I expect the motor is ramping down to zero. So where would there be a setpoint to shorten the delay between the limit switch activation and the motor stopping?


What is a reasonable distance (or time) between the limit switch activation and the motor stopping moving? I only have about a 1/8 of an inch travel between them.


I know people use prox sensors and their range is not huge so certainly I have something set wrong or more people would be discussing this issue.
