Ignore Limits option grayed out

@Aceira,

what release of gmoccapy do you use? See title bar or setting page.
In 3.0.8 I do not have that Behavior.

Thanks Norbert for your reply. I'm still on 1.5.9!
So I guess I'll see about updating...

Thanks

I will check on 1.5.9

I'm not sure if this would work, but I wonder if you could and2 the limit switch with the is-homing signal for that axis? That would allow you to jog off the switch before you home. That might not be quite the right signal but it might be worth exploring options like this might yield a solution.

I know this thread is old, but I am seeing the same problem with gmoccapy v3.1.3.8...

I have the same catch-22, that if an axis is already on a limit at startup, I cannot switch the machine on - "Could not switch the machine on, is the limit switch activated?". But the Jogging panel is disabled (along with 'Ignore Limits'), and so I cannot jog off the limit switches.

In my case cycling the software eStop has no effect.

This should be fixed in Gmoccapy 3.4.0 (LinuxCNC 2.9, not yet released)
