  • 1) Sensorless Homing: I've added limit switches to my 3018 so I'm familiar with homing in general and how switches play into it, but this controller says it supports Sensorless Homing (https://github.com/Spark-Concepts/xPro-V5/wiki/Hardware_Description). I've gathered that it's a function of the Trinamic stepper driver's stallguard capability but I didn't see anything in the documentation about how to use it. A google search led me to some write-ups for other machines, but what I see appears to be pretty specific to those machines. I'd appreciate any clear info pertinent to if/how that could be used on this machine.

  • i've been trying to figure out the sensorless homing too. i found this page https://github.com/grblHAL/Plugins_motor that describes the command to enable sensorless homing. i'm not sure what they mean by "Parameter is a axismask where value is sum of X=0, Y=1, Z=2 etc."
