I experienced the following. While the SEARCH_HOME_VEL was positive, while homing the direction was negative.

Negating the HOME_SEARCH_VEL and HOME_LATCH_VEL to a - and a + which should be incorrect, but results in the right homing direction (up)

Then the next day, when I started up the config, the homing still went down. But now that the HOME_SEARCH_VEL in the ini file is negative, this is to be expected. So setting these to the correct values again + search_vel and - latch_vel gives the correct behaviour.

My system consists of a BBB rev C, BeBoPr-Bridge, recent build with commit 6ca42cfeb3de5c770041eb0c53a0fc931d7a3313

Does the build-plate move or the printing head? Sometimes the direction just looks wrong.

@gorf25 can you verify (and only this, don't look at scale and direction) that:

HOME_SEARCH_VEL in your ini file is positive, like +10 HOME_LATCH_VEL in your ini file is negative, like -1 while homing the joints shows the negative pos and moves towards the bed numbers decreasing,

HOME_SEARCH_VEL in your ini file is positive, like -10 HOME_LATCH_VEL in your ini file is negative, like +1 while homing the joints shows the positive pos and moves towards home joints being positive and increasing like your picture

well, that's obviously wrong behaviour IMO

I captured a situation where the search velocity is plain wrong. This time in 2 of the 3 joints. All should go up as per the INI file.

for all joints I have these ini values.

HOME_SEARCH_VEL = 30
HOME_LATCH_VEL = -1

next step I did: changed the for the joints 0 and 2 the following:

HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -30
HOME_LATCH_VEL = 1
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = 30
HOME_LATCH_VEL = -1

I'm flabbergasted.

Will report back if I see something which triggers this.

verified your end stop signals are good before you started homing? Noticing you have ~30:1 difference there.

  • pressing the home button moves all the joints up, with positive numbers in the preview window
  • then homing didn't stop at the endswitch
  • power down
  • e-stop

  • e-stop clear

    power up

    and then the joints 0 and 2 start moving down when I re-home.

    exit Machinekit

  • change the ini values again to the correct ones

HOME_SEARCH_VEL = 30HOME_LATCH_VEL = -1

  • start Machinekit
  • homing works as it should

I'm flabbergasted.

good observation! If that were the problem it would be an embarrassing one :) I moved my board, and come to think of it, these exact joints were disconnected. I'll have to do some more rewiring so I'll be extra careful to check the endstops.

I tried to duplicate what you have done to fix but haven't been successful still have to have set HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -30
