@Jahuntle Homing Direction Invert for X is disabled for you. It should be enabled

Made that update and tried homing. Recieved alarm 8 and 14 along with this in the console.

@Jahuntle If you did a lot of changes, you may want to reset the settings to their defaults.

Just to confirm is this where I should be going to restore defaults?

@Jahuntle Yes, but I’m not sure if there are settings that you want to keep. At the top of gSender, there’s a toggle called “View modified”. Enable that to see any settings you changed from the defaults.

Good news! It is homing to the left rear. Once there I am getting alarm 14 feeder - spindle at speed timeout.

@Jahuntle Lets backup a bit and confirm that homing for each axis is working. When in carve mode, at the top right, there’s a toggle under the zero coordinates. Enable that temporarily. You’ll see that the buttons on the left change to HX, HY, HZ. That will allow you to home each axis separately. Home them individually, in no particular order.

@Jahuntle And for the spindle error, did you start the VFD before you powered on the SLB? They have to be started in that order.

Yes, the VFD I leave plugged in. The SLB I turn on and off quite often after I make a change in settings. I try that again just to confirm.

@Jahuntle ok, but confirm that you can home each axis separately as outlined above.

Each of the three axis successfully homed.

After that I moved the spindle towards the middle of each axis and it successfully homed without any errors!

Well at least that problem is resolved. Still get the spindle error? All connections are good?

Just saw your edited response. All good now?

No errors occurred, which is a bit perplexing since I didnt do anything different this time other than first homing each of the axis independently.

@Jahuntle Now that @Chucky_ott has shown you how to resolve this issue, I will close the topic.
