      Endstops - X: not stopped, Y: at min stop, Z: at min stop, Z probe: at min stop

      Y is triggered but Z is not at the moment and it still reads as "triggered". .

        @Phaedrux They are all moving correctly . im about to move it to the center to see if its still triggered. .

          Error: G0/G1: insufficient axes homed

          Does this mean i have to home them all individually at this point?

          G1 (H1) Z18 F480000 ; lift Z relative to current position
          would this work?

            So just the first H2 right?

            Nope, just the one for the XY axis move. G1 H2 X5 Y5 F480000 ; go back a few mm

              @Phaedrux So do i change the value for F480000?
              As in go back a few MM i took it down to

              G91 ; relative positioning
              G1 Z18 F480000 ; lift Z relative to current position
              G1 H1 X-300 Y-300 F3000 ; move quickly to X and Y axis endstops and stop there (first pass)
              G1 H2 X5 Y5 F480000 ; go back a few mm
              G1 H1 X-300 Y-300 F3600 ; move slowly to X and Y axis endstops once more (second pass)
              G1 H1 Z-400 F3600 ; move Z down stopping at the endstop
              G90 ; absolute positioning
              G92 Z0 ; set Z position to axis minimum (you may want to adjust this)

              So now when i try to homeall i cannot, it gives me

              G28
              Error: G0/G1: insufficient axes homed

              So now its

              G91 ; relative positioning
              G1 Z18 F480000 ; lift Z relative to current position
              G1 H1 X-300 Y-300 F3000 ; move quickly to X and Y axis endstops and stop there (first pass)
              G1 X5 Y5 F480000 ; go back a few mm
              G1 H1 X-300 Y-300 F3600 ; move slowly to X and Y axis endstops once more (second pass)
              G1 H1 Z-400 F3600 ; move Z down stopping at the endstop
              G90 ; absolute positioning
              G92 Z0 ; set Z position to axis minimum (you may want to adjust this)

                I think this should work. Since you have a Z end stop you can start by homing Z.

                My printers don't allow for homing X and Y at the same time - so I don't even know if it is possible. If not just do them one axis at a time.

                Add/Adjust F params as desired.

                JOOC where did the 480,000 value come from? That is rather fast.

                G92 Z0 ; change Z0 to match the actual Z co-ordinate at which the Z end stop triggers
                G1 Z10
                G1 H1 X-300 Y-300
                G1 X5 Y5

                    G90 ; absolute positioning

                    The reason for the error is because you've taken the H2 off of the Z move at the start and end. Those were ok. I just wanted you to remove it from the XY move in the middle.

                    This would work, but @fcwilt provided a better option anyway that homes the Z axis first.

                    G91 ; relative positioning
                    G1 H2 Z18 F6000 ; lift Z relative to current position
                    G1 H1 X-300 Y-300 F3000 ; move quickly to X and Y axis endstops and stop there (first pass)
                    G1 X5 Y5 F6000 ; go back a few mm
                    G1 H1 X-300 Y-300 F3600 ; move slowly to X and Y axis endstops once more (second pass)
                    G1 H1 Z-400 F3600 ; move Z down stopping at the endstop
                    G1 Z5 ; back off
                    G1 H1 Z-400 F600 ; home z again slowly
                    G90 ; absolute positioning

                    F480000 is 8000mm/s which is really fast. But it wouldn't actually be able to use that speed because the max speed limit set in config.g is 6000mm/min which is a good cruising around speed (100mm/s)

                      @Phaedrux Okay.
                      With both of them my z wont go any lower than the middle. i cant get close to the bed at all . .

                        If you send just G1 H1 Z-400 F600 in the console does it move the z axis down to the endstop or does it just sit there and change the z axis position to 0?

                          It just sits there. when i press home z it goes higher. when i try to bring it back down it does nothing.

                              And does it set the current position to Z0?

                              Check M119 again please. It sounds like the endstop is already triggered at the start, so it won't move any further.

                                  And just to be clear, when you sent M119 the z endstop wasn't actually pressed, right?
                                  Quick photo of the z endstop?

                                  Maybe you DO need the ! to invert the Z endstop?

                                        When configuring a printer for the first time you need to take certain precautions.

                                        For instance you can trigger an end stop switch by hand to verify that it stops the movement of the axis when it should.

                                        In this case you would start from far the bed, being homing, hit the end stop switch and confirm movement stops.

                                        If it didn't you can kill power before something breaks - like you piece of glass.

                                        Also you can force very slow speeds by editing your M203 command to something like

                                        M203 X500 Y500 Z500

                                        which gives you more time to observe and react if something starts to go wrong.

                                        Did you use my homing code?

                                        We can get things working - just take it one step at a time.

                                          @fcwilt yes . . I did use the homing code .. the way my setup is right now i have to reach around to kill the power. . im going to to change things once i print some supports for the new things . . Thank you. I appreciate your help. Im going to post all of my homes to see if you can find anything. . At this point im staring at the computer . . kind of scared to turn it back on . . I may need to take a break.
