at the moment you have to write your own home program to do that.
sorry for the delay, been super busy working on v5.08, finally had some time to update the Acorn Axis Pairing Manual

Roll your own centroid relay autosquaring basic info has been added to the Acorn axis pairing manual.
see the new pages 9 -12 related to relay auto squaring....
https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_di ... _guide.pdf
(refresh your browser to see rev14 dated 12-20-23 on bottom on page 1)

Note: as always if the machine is on a switch before homing, "relay autosquaring" will act like CNC12 always does in this case and if the machine is on a switch before homing the user will have to clear it by moving the axis before auto homing.

next is to add the relay auto square feature into the Wizard and have the wizard take care of all these details and then i'll of course add the wizard menu screen shots in this manual as well! V5.2 :-))

Any way you could share the working schematics? I'm working on wiring up some iHSV57's as well.
