      Hi Quentin,

      pls. help me.
      Everything works (nearly) but – flashed with the new Firmware und following the guide i’ve problems.
      The homeing of the Scara-arms only ok, if they are behind the coper-axis and on the Upperlevelplattform-area. All other positions (outside Platform or over the Printingbed) the Morgan trys to go complete clockwise on maximum position with the arms – if i dont stop it via reset it would go a full turn (not tried). Normal ?

      homing is done and i want to go z- or + the Scara-arms move (?) very slowly counterclockwise – no log of the action in pronterface an without moving on z.

      i’ve not done the alpen-way, ive a M8-Rod …
      is it right, x (upper) and y have only one magnet an one hall-sensor and z only one sensor on Ttop-position ?

      Ah, late nights…

      On my last build I somehow installed the arms the wrong way around. Theta becomes Psi, etc…

      The effect was that the arms would home perfectly, but tried to crash into the copper pipe every time I issued M360

      After swapping the x and y sensors and motor connectors, all was fine again.

      Hi all …
      now everything is ok … i made a big mistake – maybe late night sitting at Hackerspace Dortmund i turn the connectors from the Motors to the Ramps reverse *grrr*
      x,y & z turned 180° and everything is running …
      the Z-Max-Endstop is now in the right position …

      hmmm order new driver (drv8825) is now not nessessay, but done – anyway! … i will use my a4988 and later i will change…
