Problems after firmware upgrade

Hi

I've had my ormerod 1 for a while now working perfect, but now i decided to upgrade my firmware on the arduino (0.50ish to 0.78c) (does anyone know where the release notes are? I want to read the upgrades)

But now there is trouble with homing the Y axis. When i press "Home Y" or "Home All" the bed goes opposite way of the motor and switch and eventually clatter the motor.
And when pressing the end switch manually when the bed goes wrong way does not stop it, but the LED on the motherboard does turn ON, so the switch does have connection to the board.
Z and X axis appear fine so far (Have not yet set the probe value and z axis height) (X axis stop at 0 POS above the sensor notch)
The Y axis goes the right way when pressing the buttons "0.1, 1, 10, 100"

My sys files are not altered any way and is standard from Github

Also another problem i've had with the new pronterface, is the custom buttons (at center bottom) does not appear. But those do appear on the old pronterface i used.
I did try to delete the pronsolerc file in user folder, but does not help.
I tried both the "pronterface.py" under pronterface folder and the "pronterface.exe" under the Win7 folder. Which one should i normally use? I used the Win7 before.

Any solutions for those 2 problems?

That's the wrong way round. The LED should normally be on, but should go off when you press the microswitch. Check that you have the wires connected to the outside two tags on the microswitch. The middle tag should not be connected.

Ok, thats my fault, i fell out when moving it, i just assumed it to light up when clicked.
But all the other wires are correctly connected.

Release notes:
0.65e: [reprappro.com]
0.78: [reprappro.com]

As dc42 says, the endstop LED should turn OFF when it hits the endstop; it should normally be on. Check your wiring.

Regarding pronterface, if you are using the github version of our software (from [github.com] ), make sure you run it by double clicking 'Ormerod.cmd', which sets it up correctly for Ormerod, NOT by running the pronterface.exe directly.

So is everything working now apart from Pronterface?

This is a printer at work, so i can't try the suggestion until tomorrow, but i will keep you updated

Y axis does work now. I notice it stops at the endswitch for a second before it goes back, is this some new firmware feature?
Also running ormerod.cmd seemed to fix the pronterface aswell. even tho i've used pronterface.exe for a whole year before.

Also see when calibrating it, when the IR sensor is at 650-ish, my nozzle is 2,8mm height, not 1,8mm as suggested in the guide.
Will this affect my accuracy in any way?

the homing is done by driving into the endstop, backing up a little and slowly driving into the endstop again. This gives a better homing because your bed does not have a big momentum.

the IR sensor should be fine at that value. I had the same values.

So many new things
When i use HomeAll, it goes to X60 and Y0, and down to Z0 with the IR probe, but after that i goes up a few mm and back to X0.
This means my extruder head collides with my bed clips.
Why does it go back to X0? And where do i change the bed so it does not go as far on Y

The homing behaviour is controlled by the homex.g, homey.g, homez.g and homeall.g files. You can change those behaviours by editing those files. If you are still using foldback clips to secure the bed, I suggest you change to picture frame clips.

Do you know which particular line i would need to change?

No.. Something is wrong.. This is what happens when i "HomeAll".

1. Z axis lifts up 5mm
2. X axis find X0, then goes back to X60.
3. Y axis goes to limit switch then back to Y0.
4. Z goes down 3-4mm, but NOT Z0...
5. Z lifts back up 3-4 again
6. X goes to X0
7. Z goes down 3-4mm or so...

At this point i have trouble with my nozzle hitting the bed clip because the bed is at Y0
But before i upgraded the nozzle would stop at X60 Z0 and i began my print from there.

I had to completely remove my bed clip so the nozzle would not hit it.. So now its loose in one edge
