Homing fail/could not find limit switch

[ednisley]

@SFulghum

My hard limits and homing cycle are set to true
I tried re homing and watching and my laser does not move at all.

Could this be the same problem as in:

Grbl Homing problems

Hello, I recently became interested in Diode Lasers. I’ve used a CO2 for several years along with Lightburn. I’m having trouble with my machine not homing. I have Windows 10 and Lightburn grbl. I have working limit switches in the lower left corner. I’m using an AnnoyTools Laser board. I sometimes get the following error message: “Homing fail. Could not find limit switch within search distance. Defined as 1.5 * max_travel on search and 5 * pulloff on locate phases.” Here are some screens…

Wherein we found the controller is trying to home the non-existent Z axis, failing, and refusing to continue.

If so, then you must recompile GRBL with Z axis homing disabled.
