Keyboard home button
- Thread starter evergreen
- Start date
On the Jog screen (F3) you can click and hold the Home button on the screen until it changes to start and it will home the machine.
You can also setup one of the inputs to be a home button and place a button somewhere convenient.

Hi @stevet
welcome to the forum. I don't believe there is a button on the mpg control for homing use. I used a normally open momentary contact push button to send a 24v signal when pushed, to an input on the Masso that was set up to start the homing sequence. Push button can be mounted anywhere convenient. I put mine on the side of the main electrical box. It's easier than pushing the keyboard buttons for the homing cycle, especially since my keyboard doesn't have a home key.

Thats interesting the button on the side for enable almost certainly can be used for homing sequence start. @masso-support should be able to provide the pin out diagram for you. If not able to connect through the mpg plug I'm thinking you can still connect through an input. What type of switch is the enable button? Do you have a wiring diagram for the mpg unit?
