Homing Cycle and Home Button #386

Closed Marmadoc closed 2 months ago

Marmadoc commented 3 months ago
  1. Custom buttons - Homing 0;0;35 - what is purpose of this? It moves along X and Y (and Z) in increments 40, but what for it is?
  2. Home Button - $H, here I have problem - after pressing Home button, servos clicks hold the torque but do not move. After some time Alarm is triggered. Why?
  3. I like this software - but to find details on https://grbl-plotter.de/ - it is very difficult. Maybe search option can help?

  1. It's a leftover from when I used my microplotter (without a limit switch). As a “homing” replacement, the unit was driven to the mechanical end points. http://svenhb.bplaced.net/?CNC___Mini_CNC_Plotter
  2. Didi you enable homin in grbl? https://github.com/gnea/grbl/wiki/Set-up-the-Homing-Cycle
  3. Thanks, will think about, did you see the alphabetic register (key-words)? https://grbl-plotter.de/index.php?id=more&setlang=en

Yes - know about that - but it is not classic index. It is just links with few keywords.

I like to let you know that I switch back to GRBL(i) (not h hex file) - loaded via Arduino IDE - and now homing cycle is working (Home button) works perfectly.
