121 is Tool board address and 0 is driver address

Hi,

Do you have a tool defined?

This what I have
; Tools
M563 P0 S"Frankenstein" D0 H1 F0 ; define tool 0
G10 P0 X0 Y0 Z0 ; set tool 0 axis offsets
G10 P0 R0 S0 ; set initial tool 0 active and standby temperatures to 0C

Hi,

Did you try this from the docs:

Check that you can communicate with the Tool Board, by sending M115 B121 (if that fails, try M115 B10).

Communication with board is fine:
M115 B121
Board TOOL1LC firmware 3.1.0 (2020-05-15b1)

Heater and temperature reading also work

Hi,

I notice that in the docs for the tool board they suggest using 20 for the first tool board address.

Perhaps the current firmware has a problem with numbers like 121 for E?

That, however, seems like grasping at straws.

How about as a test change Z to just Z0.2 and see what happens?

Sorry guys, my fault. It's my change filament macro.

evomotors

This is my first Duet board.

No problem

But could you explain what the macro did that caused the issue?

Thanks.

I had it

G28				; home

in the filament config.g file

@evomotors

Thanks for the reply.

As you found out you don't want to do that.

Just FYI, the things I set in my filament config files are the hotend temp, bed temp and extrusion multiplier.
