as an addendum, I've seen some wiring diagrams on reddit for setting up normally closed end stops that include a resistor and capacitor for noise mitigation. I assume the circuit is simply opposite to your NO setup (minus the resistor and cap), but do you have insight on changing GRBL registers to recognize the NC setting? thanks!
WOW! Thank you VERY much. This and your other video on the GRBL Shield help me with the GRBL board ( 3 Axis GRBL 1.1f USB Port CNC Engraving Machine Control Board ) that I am installing in my K40 machine. I could NOT get it to Home with the end stop switches. Once I knew that the switches were connected correctly to my GRBL Shield but would still not Home, I used LaserBRBL to flash the 2 axes firmware over the GRBL 1.1f and IT WORKED. I was then able to flash the board I wanted t o use and IT WORKED! I have been struggling with this for a week. THANK you!
Dear Anthony, thanks for your informative videos. We built corexy diode laser engraver machine, but we cannot make homing on both x and y. when the carriage touches one of the limit switches, it stops even if it doesn't touch the other. could you help us with how we can enable homing on both axes?
Thanks for the tutorial. I'm trying the same thing. I have two wires connected to z, one to black one to white.. I've set $20 to 1. I only have my Z axis connected to the shield. When I hit Home the motor move momentarily then I get an error message "Homing pull off action failed to clear limit switch". The switch is not fitted as yet, I'm just testing with two wires. Any ideas?
Great vid! ..My question ..I have a small lathe setup, GRBl v1.1h I have my endstop working on z+, I had to change the config_h file for UNO as per the notes, I want to control a relay just on off for the spindle, can I just use the SpnEn pin?? With M3 M5 command do I have to edit config_h again? Thanks
Great video for GRBL But I have a little different setup looking for help arduino running separate drivers with ugs how would I connect switches I can’t find any advice on my setup
I abandoned ugs and went to lazergrbl same issue if I hit home it gives error code pin9 x limit pin10 y limit and pin 12 is torch on also can’t get it to come on
@@brakthehun Could you make a video on that? Perhaps combined with the homing? Or just send me a quick text tutorial with settings to change? I thought it was as easy as putting switches on the dedicated endstops on the cnc shield board that you use (I have the same but with DRV8825 drivers and nema27 2.5amp motors for cnc)
hello, would it be or is it possible to disable z while in laser mode, I am using v 1.1 in my laser machine and cannot use limit switch on x, y because homing fails because there is no z hardware at all also by disabling z as dont need it for runing laser
hi first of all thanks for this awesome video. secondly, i already have a laser with the same board as you use and every time i press homing the laser stand still and not move the it show me an error that the machine didn't find limit switch although i installed the switches as you show. any idea how to fix it? thanks in advance
On my CoreXY with GRBL 1.1g on CPU_MAP_2560_RAMPS_BOARD, the X and Y axes move simultaneously to the zero point, I would like X first then Y #define HOMING_CYCLE_0 (1
A GRBL tutorial does not get any better than this.
It's a really clear narrative, it's the first time I've watched such a clear and beautiful lesson.Thanks.
really appreciate the clear explanation; best video on this component of CNC programming that I've seen so far. thank you.

THANK you!
What is the 2 Axis firmware. I am having the same issue.
You really enjoy it, congatulations. Perfect explanation. I will install endstops in my CNC with confidence.
Thank you Anthony. All my trouble gone after your FANTASTIC video. Thank you, thank you, thank you. God Bless you. Regards from Serbia
Very simple but very clear and helpful.
very informative best tutorial on the setting on the web
Very nicely explained.. really appreciated ..
very clear information about end stops, needed this info.
Thank you helping us by that great explanation
Also make video on what is homing cycling is it same as Limit switch does Cnc shield support homing too with LS?

Good explanation...Thank you.
sweet thank u been trying do this ages ho sort it so z axis ont home only y and x
Great video for GRBL
But I have a little different setup looking for help arduino running separate drivers with ugs how would I connect switches I can’t find any advice on my setup
What's your setup??
I don’t have the GRBL shield I’m running straight off arduino unio
exelente, muchas gracias por compartir
Will this board support an autofocus on the z axis? These videos have been extremely helpful!
Great video thanks. What Grbl Control Software are you using on your Pc to drive your Cnc Board.
I abandoned ugs and went to lazergrbl same issue if I hit home it gives error code pin9 x limit pin10 y limit and pin 12 is torch on also can’t get it to come on
@@777smitty4 disable hard stops??
Plasma torches can be very noisy electrically.
At this point torch is not connected only the optical relay just for testing
When i am enable homing alarm create and cant move xyz axis plz give me solution
i think i get it now, thank you
thank you, your video helped me, and it now works
Does this also apply for X+ & X- /Y+ & Y- ? I wanna use endpoints on all ends to save my motors from hitting the end
Yeah. There's a little bit of tweaking in the firmware for endstops on both axis but GRBL does support that.

Yes!! Open up laserGRBL and go to:
Tools:
Flash GRBL firmware
Target: either an Arduino UNO or NANO
Firmware: v1.1H Custom XY homing
@@brakthehun i tryed flasing but ont let me sez carnt
@@jujucattys156 What board do you have??
@@brakthehun i sorted it m8
Very good. Can you share the custom grbl you use .I work with grbl 1.1 when I homing cycle x + y stepper motor prack and don't move
USE LaserGRBL to flash your board with Custom XY homing
Please firmware ide bcose aktive $22 just alarm
شكرا
hi first of all thanks for this awesome video.
secondly, i already have a laser with the same board as you use and every time i press homing the laser stand still and not move the it show me an error that the machine didn't find limit switch although i installed the switches as you show. any idea how to fix it? thanks in advance
You might have z homing in your firmware. Flash the custom xy homing firmware.
@@brakthehun do you have a video on how to do that?
On my CoreXY with GRBL 1.1g on CPU_MAP_2560_RAMPS_BOARD, the X and Y axes move simultaneously to the zero point, I would like X first then Y
#define HOMING_CYCLE_0 (1
Sir can you please explain other pins like Pause Play configuration
I could probably do a video for that!!
Plz send this hex file
