No Home All button in Axis

Well rather than “RTFM”, which is a bit rude, is no help, talk about which bits you don’t understand.
Not only will this help you but help the devs make them understandable to a wider audience.
Help is a two way street.

Perhaps there is an error in the pncconf wizard? Or more likely I've done something wrong. I'll certianly go back and try editing my ini file directly , but shoulden't the screen shots below have worked? Thanks

I added those lines to the HAL file and I did get it working, but I needed to put them under the joint section, not the axis section. What is the joint anyway? How is it different than an axis? there seem to be duplicate entries for the limits in both the axis section and the joint section. Should the limits be duplicated in both sections? It's working so I guess it does not matter.

Thanks

i believe you have an A axis with no homing switches. It's why pncconf didn't set the home sequence. I have modified pncconf to ignore the A axis home switch requirement.

joints are the motors that are required to make an axis move.
Some axis require more then one motor (joint)

I was wondering about this same topic today after realizing I now had to home each axis on my mill individually, and I too was missing the config Aciera had posed.
So thanks to original author for this thread and thanks for the config, and chris for adapting pncconf.

I have been trying to figure out how to "Home All" but have been getting an error message:

"linuxcnc home-all not available according to ini joint home sequence..."

I followed instructions on this thread, adding the following to my INI file, and this seems to be working, but note that the INI file will be overwritten if I save from PnCConf.

So... the Homing Order is defined within the settings in the GUI PnCConf, so I'm wondering why they are not automagically inserted into the INI file? Is this a bug?

Thanks.

===========================

These worked when added to INI file.

In your X-axis section:
HOME_SEQUENCE = 2

In your Y-axis section:
HOME_SEQUENCE = 1

In your Z-axis section:
HOME_SEQUENCE = 0
