M574 Z2 S1 P"!exp.e2stop+!exp.e3stop+!exp.e5stop+!exp.e6stop"

Instead of using exp.e#stop let's try using the pin names for the actual deux pins.

duex.e2stop
duex.e3stop
duex.e4stop
duex.e5stop
duex.e6stop

When using these names I think you can remove the !, but please test carefully.

@Phaedrux so I did move the ! And did exactly as
M574 Z2 S1 P" duex.e2stop+ duex.e3stop+duex.e5stop+ duex.e6stop"; when I click home Z axis are not moving they do get power but no signal

Phaedrux

And if you check M119 what does the endstop status say?
If it says the z endstop is triggered but the switch isn't pressed, then you would need to add the ! again to invert the signal.

moe.adams9093

@Phaedrux yes thats what I got

2/1/2021, 1:30:18 PM: M119: Endstops - X: not stopped, Y: not stopped, Z: at max stop, Z probe: not stopped

moe.adams9093

I'm going to put ! back and see what's going on

moe.adams9093

The only one is communicating probably is e6stop

moe.adams9093

Its not working. when I added this code
M574 Z2 S1 p"!duex.e6stop+!duex.e5stop+!duex.e3stop+!duex.e4stop";
and run M119

M119
Endstops - X: at min stop, Y: at min stop, Z: no endstop, Z probe: not stopped

but If I remove any one of any of the above endstops

example:
M574 Z2 S1 p"!duex.e6stop+!duex.e5stop+!duex.e3stop";

my M119 will show Z end stop is available I don't know what's causing this issue to not take all 4endstops. also when I press any of the endstops they all stop automatically not individually. I don't know whats happening maybe my duex 5 is bad or if you guys know any solution around please let me know. thank you

I believe somehow some of my end stop input on my duex 5 is not responding correctly. can I use stall detection to stop each motor at Zmax. please share your thoughts

@dc42 I hate to jump in and be an idiot, but is it because MaxAxes is set to six in the firmware?

I have the same board setup as you - Duet 2 WiFi + Duex5.

On my printer I only have 3 Z steppers so my end stop configuration command is:

M574 Z1 S1 P"!duex.e2stop + !duex.e3stop + !duex.e4stop"

As an experiment I entered this on the DWC Console

M574 Z1 S1 P"!duex.e2stop + !duex.e3stop + !duex.e4stop + !duex.e5stop"

and got this error message:

M574 Z1 S1 P"!duex.e2stop + !duex.e3stop + !duex.e4stop + !duex.e5stop"
Error: M574: Unknown pin name 'duex.e5sto'

Notice the last character, the p, is missing.

I then took that same text and created a gcode file with it in my sys directory.

I executed the file with the M98 command and got the same error.

I then used this text to create another gcode file with it in my sys directory:

M574 Z1 S1 P"!exp.4 + !exp.9 + !exp.14 + !exp.19"

which are alternate names for the pins.

I executed the file with the M98 command and got NO error.

Then I executed from the DWC console a M574 and got this:

Endstop configuration:
X: low end switch connected to pin xstop
Y: high end switch connected to pin ystop
Z: low end switches connected to pins !(exp.e2stop,exp.4) !(exp.e3stop,exp.9,spi.cs6,duex.cs6) !(exp.e4stop,exp.14,spi.cs7,duex.cs7) !(exp.e5stop,exp.19,spi.cs8,duex.cs8)

Notice for Z that all four pins are now present - albeit with all possible names for each pin.

It looks like there may be some sort of command length limitation causing the problem.

I tried this test with both 3.1.1 and 3.2.0.

Try the alternate names and see if they work for you.

@fcwilt Do you get the same error with the original pin names he had used?

M574 Z2 S1 P"!exp.e2stop+!exp.e3stop+!exp.e5stop+!exp.e6stop"

Hold on and I will try.

It shouldn't because in RRF3 you can use multiple endstops on a single axis. No need to create additional axis anymore.

That works.

@fcwilt Hmm, wonder why it didnt work for him the first time?

I have no idea - this topic has gotten rather long and it's hard to remember it all.

Those names you suggested are shorter by one character each which tends to reinforce the idea of a command length limitation.

Perhaps you could speed verification of this possibility with direct communication with dc42?

Yes. M574 Z2 S4. But you'll have to do the usual stall detection tuning.

He's aware. But also asleep at the moment I'd wager.

I have little idea of who lives where.

My hours are so erratic I'm not sure what time zone I'm supposed to be in.

Sorry It's US central Time Here maybe we are 8 hours difference.

M574 Z2 S1 P"!exp.e2stop+!exp.e3stop+!exp.e5stop+!exp.e6stop"

it's not working at all.
