This is the same firmware I received and uploaded to the printer hours ago. To be sure, I uploaded the latest firmware I was sent. The Y axis still moves to the frot of the machine until a crash/reset when homing rather than toward the back/endstop.

It seems that you get a wrong motor.
Please change a parameter in "configuration.h" of firmware:
Find:
Code: Select all
#define INVERT_X_DIR false // for Mendel set to false, for Orca set to true
#define INVERT_Y_DIR true // for Mendel set to true, for Orca set to false
#define INVERT_Z_DIR false // for Mendel set to false, for Orca set to true
Turn "ture" into "false" of the second row.

Thank you! We are finally making progress. The y-axis now homes properly; however, will no longer mover in either direction after homing until platform is manually moved off endstop.

When I tell the y axis to home, it now moves to the endstop and stops. when it is in the home position, against the endstop, the platform will not move in either direction. If, after homing, I disable the motors and manually move the bed to the middle of the axis, I can make the bed move until it believes it has reached either the soft limit min or soft limit max position.

It seems y axis is fine.
Can you move the y axis forward and backward by LCD after homing?(Prepare>Auto home, Prepare>Move axis>Move 1mm>Move Y)

You are correct, when using the LCD the Y axis appears to be functioning properly and reading the back of the machine as y=0 the front as y=200. Are there any settings in Repetier, maybe bed front location, that would be causing problems?

It appears after restarting repetier the Y-axis controls are functioning correctly. Thank you very much for your help. If I run into any more problems I will make a new thread. For tonight however, I think it's time for some sleep.
