Duet3 6MB U Axis Homing

neo0204

Hi

I am trying to run a U-axis Cartisian configuration. It was working fine when I was using Sensorless homing but when I changed the homing with a 5V inductive end-stop it stopped working. The U-Axis does not move for homing.
I am using a similar 5V inductive end-stop switch for the X Y and Z-axis and they work fine with them.

Please advise on what I am doing wrong in the config.

@neo0204 your config looks good after a quick look. Can you see what is reported with M119 when the endstop is not triggered, and then again when it is.

neo0204

@t3p3tony

I think the challenge is here, it senses the end-stop is always at Home.

I have tried connecting the end-stop to other IO pins but the results were similar.

T3P3Tony

@neo0204 try swapping the endstop with the X stop - the stop is probably faulty if it is identical to the others you use and its always showing as stopped

neo0204

@t3p3tony This is what I did as the first hardware debug, Swap the X-axis and U-axis end-stop, and X homed but U has a similar response.

T3P3Tony

@neo0204 The issue stayed with the U axis - so its not the sensor, but when you try other inputs on the Duet (like io4.in) the problem is not resolved?

T3P3Tony

@neo0204 also do you get any errors when you run your config.g using M98 P"0:/sys/config.g"

neo0204

The challenge is not resolved even when connecting to other IO ports.

M98 P"0:/sys/config.g" commands shows below response.

T3P3Tony

@neo0204 which other port did you try?

neo0204

@t3p3tony Thank you for helping debug this.

It is working now, the issue was with the end-stop extender wire.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

T3P3Tony

@neo0204 glad you got it fixed
