    Hi,

    I have a very strange issue with my BBX32. When I home all - X & Y motors homes correctly but Z motor doesn't move at all. But after homing cycle is complete I can move the Z motor through openbuilds control. Z Motor also works perfectly when I run any g-code through OC.

    Z motor also gets locked as soon as I connect my BBX32 with my pc. But it just doesn't move during homing.

    I have checked the Z limit switch as well. When I put a metal piece in front of z limit switch it shows triggered in OC.

    I am not able to understand what can be the issue.

    Check your Grbl Settings : $44=4, $45=3 should do. If not post a Grbl Settings backup for review

    X32 does not need 2 axes firmware. Homing sequences can be set in Grbl Settings now ($44,45 etc) as masks

    edit: assume you mean 'does not need' (-:
