Y does not stop at endstop

Hey all,

I have just upgraded firmware on my Air2 which runs Gen6 electronics and Repetier firmware/host.
M119 shows all stops as "L" when unused, and Y trigger to "H" when it should.
When homing or during manual moves however the printer continues driving past the stop...

Thoughts?

Thanks
Ash

I dont know either of those but in marlin and ramps you get a problem like that when the endstop is set to be a max endstop rather than min

Yeah I think you are right.

I have my y stop at the rear of the printer, should this be min or max?
Gen6 does not actually have max connectors that I know of and it trigger properly as a "MIN stop"
When I manually move the bed in the minus direction it comes forward, is this correct?

So confusing...

You should post your configuration.h

When you jog each axis, make sure that it moves towards the end stop when jogging in the negative direction. If not, you need to reverse the axis direction in configuration.h. It sounds like you need to do this with the y axis. It should move to the back, towards your end stop, when jogging in the negative direction. You might need to do this to all axes if they are all behaving the same way.
