When the feature is turned on using the `HomeIsEStop on` command, any activation of one of the sensors triggers an error, causing the machine to stop moving. Because the machine needs to be able to home correctly, it is important to turn the feature off before starting any home operation. This can be done using the `HomeIsEStop off` command. It is advisable to place these commands at the start and end of all homing subroutines (either in the `sub home_all` or in each `sub home_x, y...`). Switches ON or OFF the "Home Switch triggers E-Stop" feature. :::BlockQuote HomeIsEStop \ :::
