      @wdenker if its a dual head then do you have it setup initiall as a "normal" IDEX?

        @T3P3Tony right ok is there a way to use the configurator to do that I went through it the other night and didn't see any idex options.

          No idex is not a config tool option yet.

          Start with a config tool setup for a cartesian and then follow this guide:

              @T3P3Tony So just trying to get firmware made up for this and the very first step is to create new axes using M584. My config.g doesn't have any M584. Going to follow the rest through and see what I get hoping by the time I am done I have the answer to why that is.

                  @dc42 is there anyway I could pay you to help me get this firmware going? I just don't have a lot of time to do the whole trial and error thing to get it going. I have a corexy with four lead screws for the bed already and that configuration that works I need to add The second pantry and head movement to it. Let me know what you think.

                    @wdenker can you be more specific, what is currently not working with the config you posted.

                    You have a U and a V axis defined, In a traditional IDEX you would have X and U as the two independent axes, is V the second Y axis? If so I would get the "conventional" Idex setup working first.

                        @T3P3Tony Wondering if you could answer a question. Got it all up and running but having a hard time getting my U and V axis working and reading like I would expect. I have U as my second Y axis and V as my second X axis. I am homing x and y to the front left and u and v to the back left. When I home I would love it to show up as where it is landing for U and V which should be around 955 and 10 but instead shows as 10 and 10 even though it is all the way at the other end of the bed. Any ideas?
