Homing Limit Switches X axis going wrong way (SOLVED)

Hi, Im currently adding Limit Switches to our Crossfire Pro and everything seems good expect for when I try to Home.

The Y axis operates correctly but the X axis is running the wrong way, I have the limit switch by the X axis stepper motor so its driving to drive left to right vs right to left and into the Switch.

As far as I can tell everything is hooked up right and the table works fine without the switches, Im scratching my head and hoping somebody can help.

Did you reset the defaults? Failure to do so will result in homing the wrong direction.

I had done that, but something must not have clicked. I just did it again and it appears to be working now so thanks.

I had a similar response when I set up my switches. Not really sure; but, I think FireControl needs to fully restart and form a new relationship with firmware changes of the enclosure. It may even require a restart of both.

Glad you got it to work. Welcome to the community. I will mark this as “solved.”

I’m having the same problem and have followed all these steps. Still won’t solve problem. Any ideas?

You might get a better response to start a new thread and share as much information as you can. Also share if you table was working properly and then stopped or of it is still being set up.

Screen captures, gcode file and pictures of your set up would also help.

Go to the top right of FireControl and click on the three lines. Then click on limit switches. The click off. Problem solved. They are just a waste of time. You are now the 500th person to have this issue.

Happy New Year to everyone. Yes, let’s hope so.

On a good note, gas was $2.06 a gallon in Chattanooga today. Things are looking up.

$1.37cdn (1.01us) a liter here today when I filled up the work van, which is way down from where it was after covid.

Is that marine gas we talking about? We have a different grade we can buy where it doesn’t have road tax on it up here.

3.78541 liters per US gallon

Marine gas is 122.5 per liter Canadian 89.25 us

3.39 US a gallon for marine gas here

3.81 Us a gallon for road gas . Nearly double the price for us.

No, our dock gas station is b in the low $3 range.

It is mid grade 100%

Michigan governor Gretchen Whitless added a .50 cent a gallon gas tax back in October. Still cheaper than it has been in past four years though…
