Homing switches not recognized linuxcnc

I having trouble deciphering what to put in the .hal and .ini for linuxcnc to find my switches.

Please post your files, we cannot guess what is currently in them.

If you want to do it yourself, create a test config with homing switches in it and look at that, or put your config back through stepconf and add the home switches.

I have not setup my hal or ini files. I am working on a Sherline lathe with two mechanical switches and I am working in the imperial scale.
I have found example files from other posts which should this going. I appreciate all the help I can get.

There is already a sample config in the install.

This is it in the github repo
github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/tree/master...erline/SherlineLathe

It has an imperial version at Sherlinelathe_inch.ini

Should be installed at
/usr/share/doc/linuxcnc/examples/sample-configs/by_machine/Sherline/SherlineLathe

on your system already

Need to read the .hal file because some of it is commented out in standard_pinout.hal and you need to uncomment what applies

regards

Here is my ini and hal files. I need to be able to hit home all button and it do an automatic homing sequence.

I did go and check out that link and it was very helpful. The linuxcnc will now work again. It does not show home all but just home each axis. I took out the sequence command. Any help would be appreciated.

My lathe is a sherline and I got the sample setup for it. My breakout board is the same one they sell at omc stepperonline.

I am wondering if my breakout board is working. I did away with the usb cable and hooked up a 5v power supply. The home all button is back but I am not sure if I have the connections setup in hal or the ini. breakout board has pin 12, 13, 15 as x y and z..
