Re: Limit and Home switches

Hi;

Mach 1 takes care of the reversing. It will toch the switch and then
backoff until the switch is released.

Do you have all your switches connected to a common pin or on
seperate pins ??

limit switches on my Sherline. Overkill... I guess, but I'm modeling
a setup for a bigger machine down the road. I'm using Mach1. My
question; When a limit switch is activated does the machine stop
then reverse and back off the switch or must you jog it back/off?
Same question re. home switches as I've seen mention that the limit
switches can be setup as home switches. If the axis does back off
in either case, how or where do you tell it how much to back off or
where to go to in homing?
