      @dc42 can you help me at this point?

      In any case, I have to make sure that the printer cannot be operated with the doors open.

      Do you have an idea how?

        Why not use daemon.g and conditional gcode?
        You could then monitor for when the printer is printing and check the state of some door switches.
        Then, if they are open rather than closed, or vice versa, the print is paused.

          Yes, I would like to do that ... so far I have queried the doors with M581, but this only evaluated the rising flank.

          How could I solve that? do you have a concrete solution?

            M582 would should run the trigger again if the state is still triggered.

            But I suspect the suggestion was to use the object model, don't have the specific node to use, but if noone comes up with it I'll have some time to poke it tomorrow

              or we could go down the "teach a man to fish" road?

              where you find it under sensors will depend on how the sensor is defined, endstop or gpIn maybe?

                @dc42 But is there a Object Model for the inputs at itself?

                Yes, in RRF 3.1 they can be found in sensors.gpIn[x] where x is the GpIn number you assigned in M950 (the J parameter).

                  Solved!

                  I created the switches like following in the config.g:

                  ; Custom Safety Settings 
                  
                  ; Open Door Switch
                  
                  M950 J0 C"!1.io0.in" 
                  M950 J1 C"!1.io1.in"
                  M950 J2 C"!1.io2.in"
                  
                  ; Emergency Stop
                  M950 J3 C"!1.io3.in"
                  

                  And at the homeall.g I used the conditional commands:

                  ; homeall.g
                  ; called to home all axes
                  
                  if sensors.gpIn[0].value==1 & sensors.gpIn[1].value==1 & sensors.gpIn[2].value==1 & sensors.gpIn[3].value==1  ;If the Doors are closed and the emergency stop is released -> Homing
                  
                  
                  	M106 P0 S0		; Part cooling Fan off 
                  	G91                    ; relative positioning
                  
                  	G1 H2 Z10 F6000         ; lift Z relative to current position
                  	G1 H1 X-650 Y550 U650 F5000 ; first pass XYU
                  	G1 H2 X5 Y-5 U-5 F6000     ; go back a few mm
                  	G1 H1 X-20 Y20 U20 F360  ; second pass XY
                  
                  
                  	G90                   ; absolute positioning
                  	G1 X270 Y170 U460 F20000    ; first bed probe point -> move X to the middle of the Bed, U outside and home Z
                  
                  	G30
                  

                  Now if the doors are open or the emergency stop is active the printer will not move πŸ˜‰

                  Thank you for your help!

                    are you still having a trigger to react to the doors being opend mid-print, or is that wired together with the e-stop?

                      In RRF2.05 I made this with M581 to call Trigger 0:

                      I planned like this:

                      ; Open Door Switch
                      
                      M950 J0 C"!1.io0.in" 
                      M950 J1 C"!1.io1.in"
                      M950 J2 C"!1.io2.in"
                      
                      M581 P"!1.io0.in" T0 C0
                      M581 P"!1.io1.in" T0 C0
                      M581 P"!1.io2.in" T0 C0
                      
                      
                      ; Emergency Stop
                      
                      M950 J3 C"!1.io3.in"
                      M581 P"!1.io3.in" T0 C0

                        gotcha, was wondering if you went with the slow down option and if so how you approached it - and if the time delay between the trigger and the speed reduction was acceptable with feed rate override f.ex.

                          before I have not found a way to listen to the protected ...

                          how do I then implement it?

                          Right now I'm opposing to stop everything. The reduction of the protected would be the best solution!

                            I'm not sure how you'd go about it but I supect you'd set a M581 trigger for one flank to say trigger1.g that include

                            ;trigger1.g - called when doors open
                            M220 S20 
                            ;cancel T1 
                            M581 P"nil" T1 C0
                            ;and arm T2
                            M581 P"1.io0.in" T2 C0
                            M581 P"1.io1.in" T2 C0
                            M581 P"1.io2.in" T2 C0
                            

                            and in trigger2.g you set it back to 100 and change the trigger back to the original

                            ;trigger2.g - called when doors close
                            M220 S100 
                            ;cancel T2 
                            M581 P"nil" T2 C0
                            ;and arm T1
                            M581 P"!1.io0.in" T1 C0
                            M581 P"!1.io1.in" T1 C0
                            M581 P"!1.io2.in" T1 C0
                            

                            or something to that effect that causes the trigger to change function so it can respond differently to opening and closing.

                            https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M220_Set_speed_factor_override_percentage

                            I suppose you could refactor it to use only trigger1.g and use conditional logic to check if the sensors.GpIn[n] is high or low as well.

                              Ok this sounds good! πŸ™‚ Thank you

                              But this will work for a running Print or always?
                              For example if the printer is homed, someone opens the door and moves the axes manually. Will this also be slowed down?

                                hmm, docs doesn't specify so I'd presume its valid for all moves, but it'll probably be some amount of time between the switch triggering and command getting applied to the moves in the queue.

                                if you test it and find M220 to not do the trick, you could also look into changing the actual speed limit with M203.

                                  Hi all...

                                  I tested the example from @bearer and it works for the first step...

                                  There are still a few small things:

                                  1). I get an error message when I call trigger2.g and trigger3.g! Shown here in the picture

                                  90b109fe-a588-4bc5-a54e-86937eb6c277-image.png

                                  Here the code:

                                  ; trigger2.g
                                  ;called wenn door was closed and gets opend
                                  
                                  M220 S20 
                                  ;cancel T2 
                                  M581 P"nil" T2

                                  it seems to have something to do with the "nile". Why does this error appear?

                                  as I said but it currently works when I open the door the speed decreases and when I close the door it increases again

                                  2). can you improve the response time? That he does this immediately and not only when the buffer is empty? similar to the emergency stop?

                                  Thank you! πŸ™‚

                                    @CR3D said in Saftey Door Switches for BIG printers:

                                    can you improve the response time? That he does this immediately and not only when the buffer is empty?

                                    not sure if M25 (pause) is faster with respect to response time? i.e. pause, change speed and resume, but it might be subject to the same latency and/or not affect the moves already planned.

                                      No I meant if you can speed up the response time of command M581 a little?

                                      Otherwise I am very happy with the function now!

                                      Any ideas about the error message with the ""?

                                        The error message is misleading; however if you read https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M581_RepRapFirmware_3_01RC2_and_later you will see that the line

                                        M581 P"nil" T3

                                        is not valid in RRF 3.01RC2 and later. If you want to delete trigger 3, use:

                                          whops, i'm clearly outdated.

                                          anyways i don't think the delay is in the trigger and M581, its likely M220 waiting for moves already planned to finish before the new speed is applied?
