Delta Homing Issue
Hello
I switched from Marlin to Repetier 0.91 on my Delta. Everything works so far except homing. When I send G28 all three axis move up but then stop after about 10mm without triggering the endstops. It reads then the coordinates of the homed position and I can drive the axis normally. Did anyone else had a similar problem?
Thank you for your Help
Here is my configuration.h

Comments
Check endstops with M119 if signals get send correctly. If it stops early you have either set z length so small or have crosstalk to endstops if they work otherwise. Please check eeprom settings - a typical problem when users come from Marlin. We have stored most data on first upload in eeprom and later changes in configration.h are not copied automatically.
M502
M500
would copy values to eeprom.
I had some communication problem with 0.92. I am not sure if it's a matter of the firmware but I want to try the 0.91 first before I change hardware. As I said, I printed with Marlin before and hadn't any problems. But repetier is much smoother. That's why I want to give it a try.
I already checked the endstops with M119 and they work fine. My Z length should be enough. I will try to copy the values to eeprom and hopefully it will change something.
Thank you
