Homing is "malfunctioning"

Everything worked fine last night. but today when I booted everything up and went to home my machine Joint 1, which is a tandem of joint 2 both making up the y-axis, would go to home, trip the limit switch but then when it was suppose to back off it would go farther crashing into the limit switch. I'm using limit switch as a shared home. Joint 0 and 2 home properly.

I'm not super familiar with all of this but I know the basics, so I though it may be that the home_latch, or offset direction were the issue, but when I put a "-" in front of them I still had the same problem

I have Plasmac configured

I would have a look on the direction signal of the according motor driver.

I’m not sure I understand what you mean. If you mean the direction the motors travel and if they go in sync then they do. They both drive the gantry to the switches. It’s only when they trip the switches that joint 1 starts moving in the wrong direction

It’s working somehow now... I left it off for a while and now it’s working. Though I rebooted it several times before posting this to try and solve the issue. Not sure but whatever it’s working now

Have a look on your cabling. If you have a problem with the direction signal for that motor you will get exactly such behaviour. And if it is f.x. a loose screw you will never know when that happens again..

Yeah I’ll look into it farther. Thank you

You can always check the limit switch output with the HALMETER app, it's in the machine drop down menu in Axis GUI. When the switch is actuated it should always show 'TRUE', otherwise it should be false. And also keep the switch pressed/actuated and see whether the HALMETER output stays at 'TRUE'.

[edit]
You can also check the 'HOME SWITCH LOCATION', after the homing sequence is completed this distance is taken as the offset from the limit switch. Make sure that this location is away from the limit switch, you may need to change the sign of this Value.
