### Describe your issue:

I can’t home any axis. It tells me I must home axis first. This happened after updating the firmware that the update manager showed needed updating.

Beacon V2.0.0-21-gee5d7709  
Klipper V0.12.0-451-g730e5951  
Mainsail v2.13.2  
Moonraker v0.9.3-66-g18f3da59

Thanks,  
Brandon

Have you tried just issuing G28 gcode via console (without any macros)?

Try adding a

```auto
[safe_z_home]
home_xy_position: 200, 200
z_hop: 3

```

I get this error:

home\_xy\_position cannot be used with [safe\_z\_home]

It’s working now. Somehow I had this info under Beacon Config:

home\_xy\_position: 200, 200 # update with your safe position  
home\_z\_hop: 5  
home\_z\_hop\_speed: 30  
home\_xy\_move\_speed: 100  
home\_method: proximity #contact # use proximity for induction homing  
home\_method\_when\_homed: proximity # after initial calibration use induction  
home\_autocalibrate: never #unhomed # contact will calibrate beacon on first home

I commented all those out and can now finally after what seems like a month can use my HevORT.
