Hello, can you tell me if limit switches are NO or NC 24vdc...I have a similar machine and I am trying first of all to bring it to the factory control.. it throws out errors that one of the limit switch is on , control allows me to reference    to the z axis, xy will not reach the switches. linear scale on x is also filled with dirt and have to figure out how to clean it. thank you very much

Ok, thanks for verifying the issues I was having...

I followed your Debug patterns in attachment

Appologies, I just realized that I was testing in current master so I changed to 2.9.3 and there does seem to be something strange going on.

1. If I test with [RS274NGC]INI_VARS = 1 then I can indeed reproduce these issues
2. If I test without [RS274NGC]INI_VARS = 1 (default value is 1) then I can read and write(!) #<_ini[TOOLSETTER]z_tool> (I don't get the error when trying to write)

[edit]
Note this is actually unrelated to the version but to the upper/lower case variable name in the ini file, see below

Thanks... I'll try the same thing yet again, and post my results

This

I repeated these issues with both the axis.ini setup for sim, and MY_MILL.ini. interesting. 2.9.3 LinuxCNC distribution, no mods. total install of ISO
