There's a msg about that a week or 10 days ago. Yes, from Andy Pugh on the 4th of August: "If you give the A-axis a homing sequence number, then specify a homing speed of zero then the A will get tagged as homed along with the rest. Even if it isn't physically there. I have a part time A axis on my mill, and do exactly that."
