Gantry with Dual Y-Motors mos-assigning signals

I'm setting up a router with dual Y Motors. I've followed this guide on how to setup multiple joints on a single axes.

forum.linuxcnc.org/49-basic-configuratio...-linuxcnc-2-8-master

motors setup as such:
joint0 - X
joint1 - Y
joint2 - YY
joint3 - Z

I've done it to a T, and get no errors, but when I jog the z axis, it jogs joint 2 instead of 3 as it should.

My configs are attached, thanks!

Code:
[TRAJ] AXES = 3 COORDINATES = X Y Z ... [KINS] JOINTS = 4 KINEMATICS = trivkins coordinates=XYYZ

Your ini file sections that specify coordinates not consistent.
Try:
Code:
[TRAJ] COORDINATES = XYYZ

See:
linuxcnc.org/docs/master/html/getting-st..._axes_specifications

Notes:
1) [TRAJ]AXES= item is not used in this 2.8~pre nor in master branch
2) Problems like this are easier to see/understand/debug by specifying
kinstype=both to clarify distinctions of joints (pre-homing) and
axes coordinates (post-homing):
Code:
[KINS] JOINTS = 4 KINEMATICS = trivkins coordinates=XYYZ kinstype=both

3) there may be other problems but not visibile without seeing all hal files

That doesn't jive with that other guide, but it does make sense, I'll try that this afternoon!
