Marlin Homing Problem
November 11, 2011 10:40AM
I have noticed that, when I use a script saying 'G1 X-300 Y-300 F300' to home the X and Y axes, whichever limit switch trips first ends the command. i.e. if X reaches its limit switch while Y is only half way there, both axes will stop and do the 'back off and return to switch' where they are - with X on its switch but Y some way away. Is this a problem with the Marlin firmware?

Thanks, Ian

I don't think this is a problem with Marlin; seems you've combined three movements into one command. The solution is to break that into three separate move commend or else use the actual homing command, G28.
