All axis stop moving before hitting switches
-
@JoergS5 They don't move regardless if I home all or home one axis independently or directly with gcode, for example G91 G1 H2 X-500 will move very far and crash as expected, but G91 G1 H1 X-500 will move roughly 6 mm.

3.01-RC9
Please update to 3.1.1 by uploading this zip file
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.1.1/Duet2and3Firmware-3.1.1.zip
Just to confirm, the endstops are physically located X to the left and Y at the back?
Can you manually run each line of your homeall from the console?
-
@Gabell20 I am not aware of so serious bugs for the movement, but the general advice is to upgrade to 3.1.1
I checked, there were some error corrections between 3.01 beta 9 and 3.1.1, better upgrade first before proceeding.
-
Can you show photo of the endstops and the wiring?
-
@Phaedrux how do send images t the forum on mobile ?
-
@JoergS5 Cool, I have just upgraded
-
@Gabell20 and it's all working now ?
-
@JoergS5 no this is not as related but my z is going the opposite way
-
@Phaedrux The x switch is on the left and the y switch is mounted to the x carriage and triggers at the back.

Can you go through these steps to test endstop and motors before homing?

@Gabell20 when I imagine that your G1 H2 runs ok, but G1 H1 stops after a few mm, and you use NC endstop, is it possible that the movement triggers the endstop, by the movement eg? If the G1 H1 stops, does the DWC show the endstop triggered?
-
@Phaedrux That is helpful, but i followed along and the problem persists.
-
@JoergS5 that could be it, I noticed that sometimes under acceleration thy show up triggered, I wonder if I can makes the axes accelerate slower but only during homing.

You certainly can. Just add a new acceleration command at the start of the homing file and then change it back to the previous value at the end.

@Gabell20
as a first test you can set the F values low while homing.
Phaedrux you were faster and had the better answer -
-
What exactly are the switches?
-
@Phaedrux I don't know, they are just no name switches that came on the machine. i am going to try putting ferrules around them.

Glad you got it figured out.
