NEED HELP for configuring a XYYZ (2 motors on Y gantry) with linuxcnc 2.9

Hi,
I recently bought a new CNC system with a 1200x1200mm working area and a grbl controller board.
It's Y gantry has 2 motors.
I want to replace my old 2030 system with this new one, but using my old parallel controller board and linuxcnc 2.7.
After spending days wiring new system to old controller board, I finally ran stpeconf but cannot make it run.
I did some googling, find out that I should upgrade my linuxcnc 2.7.0 to 2.8.
But at the time (2019/9/18) I upgrade my linuxcnc , the master version is 2.9 and I cannot find 2.8 anymore.
So I used 2.9, followed instructions per How to. 2 or more motors on one axis. Gantry LinuxCNC 2.8 Master with no luck.
I did more research in this forum, found this post with and .hal and .ini example which mostly match my system, but still no luck.
After several days of struggling I still can't make this system to work.
So I came here for help.
Hope someone can point out where I went wrong.
My system info:
Software: linuxcnc 2.9 (upgrade from linuxcnc 2.7.0 with Debian wheezy)
Controller: Mainly TB6560 with X Y Z A B , and various pings for limit switch.
X: 1 nema 23 step motor with 2 limit switch.
Y: 2 nema 23 step motors with 2 limit switch, forming a Y gantry.
Z: 1 nema 23 step motor with 1 limit switch.
Right now I can make linuxcnc up with no error, but I can't perform a 3 axis homing( like I did in 2.7)
And when jogging, X and Z are OK, but only the first Y motor (ping 4 and 5) move.
I double checked and cross test my hardware and wiring, I am pretty sure they are ok.

thanks in advance.

There are no provisions set for homing, you have it set for immediate homing but you need to have it set for gantry homing. There are missing entries for:
HOME = 0.0
HOME_OFFSET = 0.0
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -5 <<<<
HOME_LATCH_VEL = 5 <<<<
HOME = 0.0
HOME_OFFSET = 0.0
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = -5 <<<<
HOME_LATCH_VEL = 5 <<<<

tommylight, thanks for your reply.
I now change my JOINT_3 as follows:
part hal as follow:
I checked my limit switch, it's "click to close" (there is a term for this but I can't remember)
The setting above give me an error when Z axis hits its limit switch:
"hit limit switch in home state 7" along with "joint 3 on limit switch error"
But if I set HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS =YES
The Z axis just go up hitting Z limit switch and continue running and jamming.
When I press ESTOP, it shows "joint 3 on limit switch error"
Then I change HOME_SEQUENCE, to make Y gantry to perform homing.
Only first Y motor move, and when I press Y's limit switch, it shows:
"hit limit switch in home state 7"
"hit limit switch in home state 7"
"joint 1 on limit switch error"
"joint 2 on limit switch error"
I think there's more things wrong.
any ideas?
I now change my JOINT_3 as follows:
[JOINT_3]
TYPE = LINEAR
HOME = 10.0
MAX_VELOCITY = 40.0
MAX_ACCELERATION = 100.0
STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 125.0
SCALE = 106.666666667
FERROR = 1
MIN_FERROR = .25
MIN_LIMIT = -150.0
MAX_LIMIT = 0.001
HOME_OFFSET = 5.0
HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS = NO
HOME_SEARCH_VEL = 3
HOME_LATCH_VEL = -3
HOME_SEQUENCE = 0part hal as follow:

You have no hal connections for home switches
if you have shared home/limit switches you need to connect the switch signals to
motions joint.X.home-sw-in pins in addition to motions limit pins

It also looks like you don't have any home switches configured in your hal file (joint.N..home-sw-in). A limit switch can also serve as a home switch, but you still have to make the connection in your hal file. (or tell Stepconfig to do it for you.) However your Y1 and Y2 can not share their home switches or input pins. I think you must have a separate switch for each, to use auto squaring of the gantry.

PCW , Todd, thank you both.
I had used stepconf in linuxcnc 2.7 for my old 2030 machine,
It automatically created these entries (joint.1.neg-lim-sw-in in hal, .HOME_SEARCH_VEL ,etc in ini).
Why the stepconf in linuxcnc 2.9 did not do the same?
I checked my old 2030.hal and add these to my 120x120.hal as follows.
I am not sure if this is the right way to put them.
I still get same error :
"hit limit in home state 14" and "joint 3 on limit switch error"
Still missing or misplaced something?

do you still have:
HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS =YES
(you need this if your switches are used for both home and limit)

Thanks PCW, you are right, I didn't change this to YES.
Right now my Z and X are ok , they can perform homing just the way I want.
But my Y still not work.
When homing, the DRO shows joint_1 and joint_2 decrease together, but only one motor get moving.
BTW, my Y gantry has 2 limit switch, both on the same side(the side of that moving motor)
now my ini as follows:

Replied by chochoit on topic NEED HELP for configuring a XYYZ (2 motors on Y gantry) with linuxcnc 2.9
I try to change out put pin number for cross testing.
Using the original setting, only y1 (pin4 and 5 to left motor of Y gantry)move.
After swapping the pin# , still, only y1(ping6 and 7 to right motor)move.
