homing errors both limit+home in joints

I'm trying to home my cnc joints using both limits+home all setting in the hal file seem to be working fine. I tried different homing configurations and keep getting the same errors:
****Exceeded negative soft limit (0.000) on joint 2
****Hint: switch joint mode to jog odd soft limits

I've tried the following configurations on the ini file:
HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS = YES
***INITIAL***
HOME = 0
HOME_SEQUENCE = 0
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -10
HOME_LATCH_VEL = 10
HOME_OFFSET = -10
HOME_IS_SHARED = 1

*TRYING TO MOVE HOME INTO LIMITS*
HOME = -20
HOME_SEQUENCE = 0
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -10
HOME_LATCH_VEL = 10
HOME_OFFSET = -10
HOME_IS_SHARED = 1

*MAYBE THE NEGATIVE VALUE IN HOME HAD TO BE POSITIVE*
HOME = 10
HOME_SEQUENCE = 0
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -10
HOME_LATCH_VEL = 10
HOME_OFFSET = -10
HOME_IS_SHARED = 1

*MAYBE INCREASING THE HOME VALUE*
HOME = 20
HOME_SEQUENCE = 0
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -10
HOME_LATCH_VEL = 10
HOME_OFFSET = -10
HOME_IS_SHARED = 1

Any ideas on what is wrong with the configuration? I am using this source linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini-homing.html of linuxcnc documentation at the moment
 

The machine kind of performs the homing sequence by touching the switch, the going back, does an extra hop and then I get the errors
