    Hi,

    First post - and I'm sorry if this is not an appropriate location/method of seeking advice.

    I have recently completed the conversion of a Sieg Mini Mill and am using the DDCSV1.1 controller (Madmodder Flashed).

    Surprisingly - everything seems to be working and a test gcode sample appears to be doing what I had hoped it would. I have yet to cut any metal with it but that will happen soon I hope.

    There is one aspect of the function of the controller that is currently bugging me - that is the Homing Function.

    I have proximity limit switches on all the axis and they appear to be functioning properly - but when I invoke the Homing Function the following happens:

    Z comes down to limit switch then goes up to upper limit and stops (Unit displays "Z-axis pos limit trig'd")
    Then
    X moves to neg limit switch then goes back to pos limit and stops (Unit displays "X-axis pos limit trig'd")
    Then
    Y moves to neg limit switch then goes back to pos limit and stops (Unit displays "Y-axis pos limit trig'd")

    leaving all axis at positive limit.

    Is this whats supposed to happen? The values on the DDCSV do not reset and the axis do not back off the limits. Is this whats supposed to happen?

    I would be very grateful for any advice.

    There is an adjustment if the axis should try a couple of times homing, then back off after homing and where the homing happens. Hard to guess more, as you use modded controller.
