Always doing Home XY First operation between tool changes

Hello fellow printers 

Doing some initial prints with my XL 5TH and I noticed that it always does a home XY between tool changes?

Is this normal because it seems to add 20 seconds to every tool change 🤔

TIA

No it's not normal.  Mine does not do this.

It only homes at the start of a print, or if it's been sitting idle for awhile.

Thanks for your quick reply

I see this other posting where somebody was having the same issue

https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/original-prusa-xl-tool-changer-hardware-firmware-and-software-help/tool-head-2-keeps-homing-x-y-axis-every-layer-its-used/

I tried their resolution (adjusting the crash sensitivity) and it did not help 🙂

 

What is the process for engaging company support as I have paid for support and I've got other issues?

Support narrowed the problem to a loose screw within the Tool Changer (Prusa Semi-assembled, Section 5, Step 5 https://help.prusa3d.com/guide/5-tool-changer-assembly_504693#504929) thanks for the help everyone!
