    Question Homing Problem

    Hello, I use the MK3/9 card for a lathe, I want to reference the X, Z axes. X is Min, Z in Max. The problem I have is that the Z axis moves in the direction of Max, and then with G0 to Min position. Why is that, thanks Markus

    what are your settings in
    Programm Options/Home/Move to/Z

    after homing the system moves the axis to the value defined there.
    If you have Set the Z Switch position to 200 (for example) and have the Move To Postion set to 0 (I think thats the default value) it will home on, assume that its on Z 200 and then moves to Z0
    If it should stay at 200 you need to set the Move To Postion for Z to 200 as well
