I have attached the latest report and have change now to Wizard to generate automatic home program. The bolt is very close to the proxy, maybe 0.200" or less and when the bolt passes the proxy, the light on the proxy turns off and then back on again.Sword wrote: ↑Wed Mar 13, 2024 9:53 pm How much gap is there between the proxy and the bolt? You might need to close the gap a bit more. Also, try a flatter hex head bolt with a bit of a radius groeund on it. It might sense better.
Your cncm.hom file doesn't have the home command for the 4th yet. Once you set the direction for the 4th, set "wizard to create" and then write the settings.
You can check the proxy by watching the input in the diagnostic screen while spinning the axis with the arrow keys.
Cross posted with cncsnw.
I have set the home for the A axis right on the bolt and proxy meet each other. But when I home the CNC (pressing PARK button) the A axis does not stop where the proxy meets the bolt, it bypasses it.
However I have more serious issue now (to me) because I am unable to home the CNC. I have a Home switch tripped and I am unable to home and use the cnc.
I have posted the latest report and PLC screenshot. HELP please

You have correctly indicated that INP6 is a fourth axis home switch, and it shows up in your Machine Configuration -> Motor Parameters table as such.
You have correctly indicated that you want to home your A axis in the positive direction.
However, you have selected "I will create my own home program ...". This prevents the Wizard from changing your cncm.hom file to match your selections. You either need to select "Wizard to generate automatic home program ...", or you need to edit the M92/A code into cncm.hom yourself.
