      @droftarts check out the existing M92 line.

      Hi mac.

      It seems you may have missed the post I made about the benefit of placing the M92 command before the M350 command.

      There is no downside to doing so and it allows you to make changes to the M350 command, if you wish to experiment, without having to change the M92 command, once the M92 command is correct for 16x micro-stepping.

        @droftarts I've been saving and rebooting after each change (after the last few changes, but not the first two).

        I see the problem with the M574 for the Z endstop.

        The command has an S2 when it should be S1.

        Edit and re-boot, then execute M119 again.

        We are close to getting homing working.

          @fcwilt I'm still considering your M92 edit (moving it to ABOVE the M350 line). Can I simply copy and paste? Will the form renumber itself?

            Yes, you can cut-and-paste a line of code with no problems.

                Great!

                Now execute the M119 again and let us know what is reports.

                      Great!

                      Notice that it says Z at min stop - was the Z endstop switch actually closed when you ran the M119?

                        I just asked a related question about the Z endstop switch.

                        Now you need to find a way to execute the M119 while both the X and Y endstop switches are closed - maybe with a bit of tape or a rubber band?

                          @fcwilt the only thing that would close the z endstop is if the X axis came down and closed it.

                              OK that's good to know.

                              If the white wire is actually connected to the NO connection of the Z endstop switch it should not be indicating Z at min stop.

                              Find a way to close the Z endstop switch and execute M119.

                              I want to see if it still reports Z at min stop or if it reports something different.

                                @droftarts @fcwilt if we're going to work on this together, I need to know you two are in agreement before I do anything.

                                Do you both agree that I should tape X and Y closed? Then M119 again?

                                  No - it just gets confusing when posts overlap in time.

                                  I'm typing, your typing, droftarts is typing - and things get a bit out of order - time wise.

                                      @fcwilt @droftarts I closed the z-endstop with my left finger, and hit M110 Send with my right finger. M119 reported Z: at end stop, Z probe: not stopped.

                                      I'm not making this up, guys.
