Hi Rainer, >Visual Studio Code OMG my mind is blown! With VSCode installed I was able to quickly find the 10+ files that I needed to modify in order to add my new parameter HOME_AUTO = 1. In the .ini file [Joint_0] HOME_AUTO = 0 and [Joint_1] HOME_AUTO = 1, In the terminal emcJointSetHomingParams(0, 0.0000, 0.0000, -1.0000, 0.0000, 9.9000, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ) returned 0 emcJointSetHomingParams(1, 0.0000, 0.0000, -1.0000, 10.0000, 2.0000, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1 ) returned 0
Then I realized what you were doing by setting the homing flag and boom! I'm in control of homing.c. I once had an electronics prof. that used to say if you could program a led to turn on, you can rule the world. I feel like that tonight. Rainer, thanks man. Without your wizardry guidance this would never have happened. Will try to sort out the rest of homing.c this week and hopefully test on the weekend when the shop is quiet.
