Can I home X and Y axes simultaneously? was created by langdons
The X and Y axes each have a home switch that is wired separately.
Both axes can be homed without issue.
However, I can only home one axis at a time.
Why can't I home both the X axis and the Y axis simulataneously?
I'm using the AXIS GUI.
Pressing Ctrl+Home should home all axes, according to the quick reference; but for me it unhomes all axes!
The switches are independent.
I also have a Z axis that currently has no home switch (There are wires so I can add one later on, however).

Yes, set the same home sequence for both in the ini file.

I also want to be able to home them independently when I want.

From the "machine" menu, choose "homing" then the axis you want to home.

If I add a homing switch to the Z axis, will this problem be more easily solved?

What problem?
None of the above are problems, you can set homing pretty much as you like or need or see fit.
