      I am commissioning a new cartesian IDEX printer powered by Duet WiFi and Duex5. It has:

      1 X axis motor
      1 U axis motor
      2 Y axis motors (these will always make the same moves, but mirrored)
      2 Z axis motors (these will always make the exact same moves)
      2 Extruder motors

      I would like to wire the motors as shown below:

      So according to my understanding of drive mapping, the drives should be mapped as follows:

      0: X axis
      1: Y axis primary
      2: Z axis primary
      3: E0
      4: E1
      5: U axis
      6: Y axis replica
      7: Z axis replica

      So finally my question is: Will the M584 command be written as below?:
      [c]M584 X0 U5 Y1:6 Z2:7 E3:4[/c]

        That looks correct.

        I am looking forward to pictures!

          Great! Thanks.

          Here's the start of the printer. It is mainly assembled from laser cut 1/8 inch thick 5052 aluminum (surprisingly affordable if you find a good supplier) and Misumi 2020 extrusion.

          It is still very early in the assembly phase, but I need to get a start at configuring the firmware to test the Z axis before I get too far along in assembly (made that mistake before and had to tear everything apart to solve binding).
