New print board (azteeg x3 pro) is hooked up, moved in all 3 axis, homes fine in z, but not homing in x. Not gotten to y yet. It moves manually fine in x, but when I hit home, it only moves about 10mm towards the end stop. I can hit it until it hits the switch, but it doesn’t register the hit. I swapped the wires around but that throws up an end stop error when it connects. Thoughts?

Make sure the end stop is properly attached to the board. All the wires are connected properly. Send an m119 (I think) to poll the end stop status and make sure it’s registering.

Thanks again for all the help Joe. (Got it figured out with Joe via phone messages)

why not just attach some aligator clips between the endstop cable and the board’s seat…use a multimeter to register a closed loop vs. open loop at the same time as letting the software doing its thing (m119), then you’ll know if its the hardware vs. software issue…just .02

It was firmware settings
