OK that means that index is working as expected, so if homing
to index fails, its likely a homing setup issue.

what do you mean by a configuration problem, in a .hal file?

Homing configuration is in both the hal file (index and home switch handling) and the ini file
(type of homing, directions, speeds etc)

Are you saying that my .ini file is misconfigured and that's why I can't detect my Z homing?

Did you check the home switch operation?
That is, does joint.2.home-sw-in go true (change from red to yellow in halshow)
when you manually trip the home switch?
