      @Chriss Yes, M106 C"LEDs" would give it the name LEDs.

        Thanks! Workes as expected. 🙂 I expected that in the "M950" because that is the configuration of the object to me and "M106" the "on/off" only. So I did not looked into the docu of M106.
        Anyway: Thank you very much for the fast answer.

        Cheers, Chriss

          In config. g
          ;LED Strip
          M950 P2 C"e1heat"
          M307 P2 A-1 C-1 D-1

          Then add the following to change power output
          M42 P2 Sxxx

          Done! When I boot the board the pin is setted "high" and the LED stripe is immediately turned on with the maximum pulse width. How can I set to let the pin low when the board starts?

            Make sure the M42 code is in the slicer startup code and NOT in config.g

            I put M32 in my slicer start code which calls beg.g and M0 in my slicer end code which runs stop.g

            Then I have M42 P2 S255 in my bed.g and M42 P2 S0 in stop.g and cancel.g

              already done but the stripe turns on when I boot the board even without m42

                @the_dragonlord can you share your config.g file?

                  uh, I forgot to say that I'm using a PWM fan not an heater.....sorry....

                    Which fan header and where is the gcode defining the pin?

                      @the_dragonlord your problem is you have m106 P2 S1 H-1 and you should have m106 P2 S0 H-1

                          i can't use a heater because I have to trigger a mosfet to drive the stripe and overriding a heater pin it gives a level of tension not enough for the mosfet to switch. Ay niw I'm using the Fan 2

                              @the_dragonlord I'm driving the LEDs directly from the board so that I can control the brightness. But if you are driving a MOSFET, then the fan is a better option I guess.
