      Using Duet 3 mini 5+ board on cartesian style printer

      Issue after upgrading to 3.4.5 during the homing sequences occurred on the axis being told to travel back a few mm. The movement would happen normally during the H1 home, but move at a snails pace during the H2 portion.

      On X and Y:
      G1 H1 X-265 F3600 ; move quickly to X axis end <-- MOVES NORMALLY
      G1 H2 X10 F6000 ; go back a few mm <-- HERE IS WHERE THE AXIS MOVES AT A SNAILS PACE.

      On Z homing:
      G30 ; <-- LOWERS Z AT NORMAL SPEED FIRST TIME, BUT SUBSEQUENT RAISES AND LOWERS ARE SO SLOW I COULD BARELY TELL THE GANTRY WAS MOVING. RESULTS IN FAILED Z PROBE.

      Downgraded to 3.4.4 which works a treat. Just thought I'd let you know in case this is the first you've seen the issue.
      config.g file attached for reference in case you need it.config.g

              This is happening to me too! I'm having a number of issues with corexy homing on the 3 mini 5+ after updating to 3.4.5, including the issue you described. It's also not stopping when an endstop is triggered during a simultaneous xy home move (it seems to work if I home a single axis though... aside from the slow H2 move). I haven't had the time to experiment with what exactly was causing these issues though. Only thing I changed was upgrading the software 😕

              edit / update: downgraded to 3.4.4 and everything works fine.

                @rainy Thanks for the report. Could you share your config.g and homing files?

                  my homex is where I was seeing the slow movement issue, but I was messing with the script and forgot to save the original. It was essentially what @Nate-Nygren had though.

                  On homeall.g, the carriage would only move in the x direction until it crashed (normally it would move x and y simultaneously until either hit an endstop). The x homing move did seem to react to the endstop though - if I triggered the endstop by hand while x was homing, it would actually increase its speed towards the x home until it, again, crashed. My homeall.g doesn't use any H2 moves for the x or y axes, but I suspect this is linked to what @Nate-Nygren described, because downgrading to 3.4.4 fixed it.

                      Just wanted to add that I'm seeing very similar homing issues on coreXY as what @rainy sees. I just updated to 3.4.5 (from 3.4.0) and now when homing all axes the printer doesn't stop after it hits the endstop but instead starts stalling out the motors trying to push past the end. Works fine if I home the axes individually though.

                      I think my homeall macro is unchanged from what the RRF Config Tool generated.

                      homeall.g
                      config.g

                        Adding to this discussion a little. If I manually post each line from my homeall.g command to the console and execute them in sequence, they seem to work properly. However, if I generate a macro with the 3 commands:

                        G1 H1 X-625 Y605 F3800
                        G1 H1 X-625
                        G1 H1 Y605
                        

                        the board seems to no longer pause when each endstop is triggered, almost like it's executing them all instantly. The endstop monitor plugin shows each endstop being triggered, however when X is triggered, for example, the feed does not stop in the X direction and continues until the full move has been completed.

                        This was after an upgrade from 3.4.4 to 3.4.5

                          @Chorca thanks, that's useful data. I am currently investigating these issues with RRF 3.4.5. Which board are you using? Please post your config.g file.
