Can't autohome

Post by Mizuho »

I have just installed a new GT2560 V3 after I accidentally erased the bootloader from the original. I ordered from the Geeetech site and everything seems ok, the x, y and z axis can be moved in the menu, but when I autohome or try to print, the hotbed moves towards me and keeps trying even after it reaches the end of the rail.

Does anybody have any ideas?

Isn't it supposed to go that way? It's just going too far. If you move your Z axis say +1, does it go towards the back or front? Mine goes towards the back.

So it does, I thought Z was the hotbed...

Swapped Z and Y and it homed fine. Doh. The cable didn't look like it'd reach and my pictures I took before removing it weren't particularly helpful. I should've labeled them.

Much appreciated sir.

I don't really want to make a new thread for something so simple, but now when I use the dial to navigate the menu, I have to rotate 3 notches before it will select the next thing on the menu. Is there a setting to adjust this to 1?
