Marlin settings to home in + direction

Marlin settings to home in + direction

I cant seem to figure out how to get Marlin to home in the + direction rather than -. My X axis has the home switch on the + side. Switched my end stop connection to the X+ pins on the ramps board but still doesnt work. X doesnt even try to home. Why is this so confusing?

// ENDSTOP SETTINGS:
// Sets direction of endstops when homing; 1=MAX, -1=MIN
// :[-1,1]

Ie you need

#define X_HOME_DIR 1

Tried that already. Everything works fine if i set it up as homing in the - direction. But when i reverse the axis direction and set the X homing to + instead of - it just doesnt work.

Don't reverse the axis direction.

Problem still exists?

If so, maybe you can do a test...

Press your endstop with youre finger and click the x home button.
If your x axis starts homing then your endstop in marlin isnt correct.
You can choose between 'normal open' and 'normal closed' setting.

Maybe that's the problem.
