Yes thank you. I was meaning exactly what you described but saying it wrong. What I meant is independently search and latch I guess.

how do you reversed the direction for the second motor in the gantry?

You can make the scale of the stepgen negative, or invert the direction pin. (or swap the wires on one of the stepper motor phases)

thanks for your help
Now I have other question, anybody knows the best way to implement a stop on crash system for the plasma
I already have the hardware and sensors ready, but I don't know the correct signals to use.

So I'm assuming you want to force an estop if the torch crashes and the breakaway sensor is activated.
Start by rephrasing that:
If the external estop button is pressed OR the torch breakaway is active then (e)stop the machine.
Here is how I did it by adding an extra or.2 component.
So now activating the breakway or the external estop button raise an e-stop.

loadrt or2 count=3

addf or2.1 servo-thread
# next one is for breakaway sensor
addf or2.2 servo-thread
# --- ESTOP CHAIN STARTS ---
net estop-loopout iocontrol.0.emc-enable-in <= estop-latch.0.ok-out
net estop-loopin iocontrol.0.user-enable-out => estop-latch.0.ok-in
net estop-reset iocontrol.0.user-request-enable => estop-latch.0.reset
#net remote-estop estop-latch.0.fault-in <= hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.input-00
# --- EXTERNAL ESTOP SWITCH ---
net external-estop or2.2.in0 <= hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.input-00
# --- TORCH BREAKAWAY E-STOP ---
net torch-breakaway or2.2.in1 <= hm2_7i76e.0.7i76.0.0.input-06
net remote-estop estop-latch.0.fault-in <= or2.2.out
net estop-out estop-latch.0.fault-outSo now activating the breakway or the external estop button raise an e-stop.

Thanks the crash is working ok now, also I have configured the gantry with 2 motors and reversed one of them.
do you know why the slave (second y-axis) have a different control mode one have velocity and the other position
I'm experiencing some vibration on the slave side of gantry and no sure why any clue?
thanks

That sounds like a bad idea.

I forget to mention I'm using mesa 7i76e ethernet board,

That still doesn't explain why one stepgen would be velocity mode and the other position mode. They should both be the same.
