Re: Hi, all
I guess I should clarify. Could the home routine set home on a particular axis then back off prior to doing the next axis home then repeat. After X y and z home (and back off), the last command would be to home all to the previously known home locations. Could this work? My concern is using up the f...

Thanks for the reply!

Is this also referred to as a park signal? Does anyone out there have the time to talk or point me to a method of ...
