    This is really strange. This file works :

    [[language]]
    ; homeall.g
    ; called to home all axes
    ;
    ; generated by RepRapFirmware Configuration Tool on Thu May 18 2017 22:03:21 GMT+0200 (Paris, Madrid (heure d’été))
    ; Relative positioning
    G91
    ; Lift Z
    G1 Z5 F6000
    ; Course home X or Y

    G1 X47 Y20 F6000
    G30
    ; Uncomment the following line to lift the nozzle after probing
    ;G1 Z5 F100

    This file doesn't :

    [[language]]
    ; homeall.g
    ; called to home all axes
    ;
    ; generated by RepRapFirmware Configuration Tool on Thu May 18 2017 22:03:21 GMT+0200 (Paris, Madrid (heure d’été))

    G1 X47 Y20 F6000
    G30
    ; Uncomment the following line to lift the nozzle after probing
    ;G1 Z5 F100

    Notice the only difference is :

    [[language]]
    ; Absolute positioning

    removed in the second file.

    Anyway, only one G90 doesn't work for me.

      I downgraded from 1.18.1 to 1.17e and the problem disappeared

        That's really strange but it reminds me of a couple of similar threads. Can you tell me what the compatibility is set to in your config.g. That is to say, what comes after M555? Is it P1 (RepRap) as in the example in the Wiki or is it P2 (Marlin). I have a hunch…......

          M555 P2 ; Set firmware compatibility to look like Marlin

          I just upgraded from RAMPS / Marlin and thought it would be wise to have compatibility.

              I have another question : is it normal behavior that G28 turns off heaters ?
              In Marlin, you can preheat the nozzle without waiting (with M104) while homing and probing the bed.

                Homing doesn't turn off any heaters for me and yes, M104 will do a heat without waiting. Maybe there is something in your homing file(s) that is overriding it?. e.g. selecting a (different) tool.

                You can put the heating command at the start of your homing file. For example, I use my nozzle to probe the bed so I need any filament that has oozed out of the tip to be soft. So the start of my and home all has T0 (select a tool) then M104 S140 to start heating the nozzle. Then I home X and Y, then use M109 S140 to finish heating the nozzle before homing Z. Then finally I do M140 S0 to turn the heater off again.
                HTH

                Edit - but I start heating the bed before doing any of this and it continues to heat while homing is being carried out.

                  G28 stops heaters (and print actually) but G28 X0; G28 Y0; G28 Z0 doesn't. There something corrupted with that file.

                  Now Wifi stopped working :-(((

                    G28 with no parameters runs the home all file. G28 X, Y or Z will run the individual axis homing files. See here https://duet3d.com/wiki/G-code#G28:_Home

                    So, the problem must be in your homeall.g file. Of course homing will stop the print - what other behaviour would you expect?

                      G28 in the starting code of a part file abort the print. I have G28; G29 in my slic3r start g-code settings

                        Here is my start code for Slic3r. I use a diamond mixing hot end so have multiple tools but it might help you.

                        G28; home all
                        ; layer_height =[layer_height]
                        G10 P0 S210 R210 ; Set tool 0 operating and standby temperatures
                        G10 P1 S210 R210 ; Set tool 1 operating and standby temperatures
                        G10 P2 S210 R210 ; Set tool 2 operating and standby temperatures
                        G10 P3 S210 R210 ; Set tool 3 operating and standby temperatures
                        G1 Y0 F9000 ; move to Y =zero
                        T0; select a tool 0
                        M109 S210 ; complete tool heating to 210 and wait.
                        M83; Set extruder to relative

                        And this is my homeall.g but note that I have a CoreXY. This file works so check mine against yours and see if you spot what is wrong with yours.

                          Thank you. I was able to have a working homeall.g file by copying and tweaking the one in /sys-CoreXY
                          Regards
