    I am not sure and don't have any experience with them but if I remember correctly I thought the ES smoothstepper did dual homing.

    As Neale has stated the CSMIO-IP/S is a great bit of kit. I also have twin screws with dual homing using a Purlogic https://purelogic.ru/catalog/elektro..._ethernet_usb/

    I bought it from Zapp a few years ago but the documentation is crap and would not go down that route again.

    As I run my mill and lathe with Linuxcnc with Mesa cards 5i25/7i76 I am thinking of converting the router using the same cards (the master branch on Linuxcnc now dose shared homing) just by setting the offsets in the machine.ini file.

    But Linuxcnc is quite a learning curve but rock steady.

    Just my 2 cents worth.
