Thank you for your replies. I would add that this is a retrofit to a Hurco KMB1x circa '85. The limit switch arrangement is original. Maybe other manufacturers used this arrangement, in which case other users may face this problem.
I have to confess, I was hoping for an easier solution than fitting homing switches. ;-) Does EMC need to be concerned with f-error once a limit switch has been hit? Of course, leaving FERROR set to about 0.005 thou allows homing to function (less if I drop the HOME-SEARCH-VEL), but I would like to tighten that. On a slightly separate point, I had hoped to use the index for homing. Setting HOME_USE_INDEX = TRUE in the m5i20 .ini seems to leave the index pulse 'switched off' during the homing sequence. Am I missing something?
