RF 45 homing issue was created by myankov
Hello 
It is my first time converting a mill and I am having a problem with homing sequence. I short I can't make it work.
I read this linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini-homing.html  and some similar  topics  here in the forum, and after all I am more confused :).
I use same input for home and limit switch  on all axes .
 
You see in the where are the switches:  


What I want to do is when lets say homing Z - goes to the switch trips it, returns slowly trips it again and then moves 10mm down. Ini file is attached check it and tell me what I am doing wrong.
Thank you.

Some things to consider:
-Z axis should have max_limit set to 0 or thereabouts
-Z axis should have min_limit set to -400 in your case
After fixing that, check that
-Z axis move in positive direction going up by looking at the DRO on screen?
-Z axis move in negative direction going down by looking at the DRO on screen?
Only after getting this correct, move to check homing.

Ok so this is the current state of the ini file
AXIS_Z]
MAX_VELOCITY = 75.0
MAX_ACCELERATION = 700.0
MIN_LIMIT = -400
MAX_LIMIT = 0.00

[JOINT_2]

HOME = 400.0
FERROR = 10.0
MIN_FERROR = 1.0
MAX_VELOCITY = 75.0
MAX_ACCELERATION = 700.0
# The values below should be 25% larger than MAX_VELOCITY and MAX_ACCELERATION
# If using BACKLASH compensation STEPGEN_MAXACCEL should be 100% larger.
STEPGEN_MAXVEL = 93.75
STEPGEN_MAXACCEL = 875.00

HOME_FINAL_VEL = 0.00
HOME_USE_INDEX = NO
HOME_IGNORE_LIMITS = YES
HOME_SEQUENCE = 0
 When I open the Linux cnc it start like that: 
 

When up jog up:
 
Same thing with homing : It go up fast click returns slow click and goes above the switch. 

Is there any other link except this   linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/ini-homing.html   one where I can read about the homing routine. And other then this linuxcnc.org/docs/html/user/user-concept...chine-configurations for machine configuration.

Your first link is all you need.
The chapter on ini configuration may be slightly useful too.
Note that Home switches must stay triggered to end of travel. Are yours doing this?

@tommylight

Home set to 0
Home offset set to -5

 Did that. It go up fast click returns slow click and it goes up again but it don't clear the switch and I get error:

Joint2 on limit switch error
Position: relative actual 
 

And I can't move the machine.  
If I make home offset 

Home set to 0
Home offset set to 5

I get exactly what I want : go up fast click returns slow click and goes it goes down 5 mm buuut .... i get an error :

Exceeded POSITIVE soft limit (0.0000) on joint 2

Thank you! If that all I am screwed because non of this make sense :) .
If "Home switches must stay triggered" why do i get error :

Joint2 on limit switch error
Position: relative actual
