Cartesian - Homing ignores limit switches after G32
Hi
I have a cartesian printer that has worked well for a while (3 years)
I added a Z probe
I have calibrated Z and the probe as per the manual
The manual is very confusing at the point G29 has been issued. I want to transform the plane on a catresian bot. The manual goes on to say G29 is no longer relevant and I should be using G32.
G29 seems OK,
I issued G32 S2 to write the bed plane transform to EEPROM
Everything seems OK
If I then have a problem e.g.
- heater decoupled,
- z probing fail,
- probe did not deploy,
- I switched off and came back next day
-phase of moon changed
- etc
The following scenario develops and won't go away after resetting firmware and restarting host
When I press "HOME ALL"
Homing starts (sometimes X is VERY slow, sometimes in the wrong direction!!!)
Z reaches end stop (at ZMAX) and stops all other axes.
The X and Y axes report in host that they are at 0.00, 0.00
The physical axes are about 100mm from the X and Y limit switches!
The software is NOT checking that X and Y home switches are triggered. It has in its silly little mind that it is at X0 Y0 and will not look at or believe its instruments (limit switches).
Trying to press home again, nothing moves
resetting - the machine still believes it is at X0 Y0 (or there abouts)
All very confusing
In the log below at 12:51:28.802 The machine is physically at X100, Y220 after a G28
What am I doing wrong?
How do I get it to believe its limit switches once again?

Is a problem. Looks like you are just one step to close to border for activating it and then homing fails. Choose homing order with temperature (which is set to 0) then you can assign z probe a position for probing and should not have that problem. Hope the others also go away then.
