@Phaedrux I'm still having issues but I'm not sure why. Sometimes the motors will skip and start making a horrible noise when the endstops should have been triggered. The other issue I'm having is I don't know how to home Z without a Z probe? I've got M558 in config.g. How do I tell the board that the Z axis is homed?

RE: MPCNC Endstop G28 Issue
@Phaedrux After a few days break I'm back at it and am having an issue with homing. When I try to home X the 2nd X motor (X1 is driver 0, and X2 is driver 1) gets stuck right before the endstop would usually be triggered and starts shaking violently. The same thing happens when I try to home Y, the 2nd Y motor (Y1 is driver 3 and Y2 is driver 4) starts shaking violently and making a horrible noise when it gets to the endstop. Any ideas what might be causing this?
Here's the M122 and M98 readouts from previous. Looks like it updated correctly

RE: MPCNC Endstop G28 Issue
I think I've figured it out all good. It's showing as homed on X and Y with the endstops triggered. Thankyou so much for your help!

RE: MPCNC Endstop G28 Issue
@Phaedrux I've been able to change the endstops in M574 with the ! to flip the endstops so they work correctly. Now if I try to home X or Y only 1 motor is activating. What commands do I need to put in so that it will activate both motors independently?

RE: MPCNC Endstop G28 Issue
@Phaedrux Yes that's correct, I have it setup as CAD because that's what I'm familiar with. I'll update the software now and see if that makes a difference

RE: MPCNC Endstop G28 Issue
@Phaedrux
I used the duet config website to generate this config so I'm not sure what all the errors in M98 are about? The G1 command moved everything towards the 0 point of each axis is that right? I currently have the motors set so that if I press X-50 it moves towards 0 and X+50 is away from 0. The endstops are on the truck carriages and should trigger when the axis reaches 0current config:

RE: MPCNC Endstop G28 Issue
@Phaedrux Thank7you I really appreciate your help! Okay so I think I've set up the endstops correctly, but when I try to home all the axis just moves maybe +10 in X and Y and comes up with failed to enable endstops
This is what I have the endstops as:

RE: MPCNC Endstop G28 Issue
@Phaedrux Oh... I'm sure I've read about other people doing dual end stops with the duet? the reason for the 2 end stops on each axis is so that the machine automatically squares itself using the 2 end stops on each axis. I really want to make it work with the 2 so that it's completely square every time. If I remap the 2nd Endstops of each axis to a different stop will that work? Say if u used the z stop for x2 and one of the expansion slots for y2? I don't have a z stop as the router isn't connected to the board
