Loss of z axis.

[Craigylad86]

@craigylad86 and you want me to change the commands to controle z to go through port e0 and use that as a route.
So I have to then reconfigure a section of the program.

E1 is next to the extruder heater , so you want to jump from the 2 plug Z plugs to the other side.

also you need to do a configuring ?

M569 P4 S1 to what P2 was and M584 X0 Y1 Z3 E4

So your first extruder is now the Z and E1 your first extruder.

@peter247 ok that diagram is brilliant thanks.
I have z2 available
And e1 available.
Would the z2 also be affected by my malfunctioning z chip?

Should I just go straight to e1?

You mean you have only 1 plug in Z2 and the other are jumper ?
the 2 Z plugs are the same driver but the 2 plugs are wired in series.

yes move z to e1

also you need to do a configuring ?

; Drives
M569 P0 S1 ; physical drive 0 goes backwards
M569 P1 S0 ; physical drive 1 goes backwards
M569 P2 S? ****** remove this
M569 P3 S0 ; extruder
M569 P4 S? ****** add this extruder E1 is now Z

? = what s was before , us you direction setting NOT MINE.

M584 X0 Y1 Z4 E3

@peter247
My drives
Same as your except my m584
My reads

M584 x0 y1:3 z2; apply drive mapping to axis

[Craigylad86]

@peter247
Good news guys..

I have now altered the config.

As follows

M569 P0 S0 ; Drive goes forwards
M569 P1 S1 ; Drive goes forwards
M569 P2 S0 ; Drive goes forwards
M569 P3 S1 ; Drive goes forwards
M584 X0 Y1 Z4 E3

I have now a functional z axis. 🥳
But I have a new problem.
I have 2 y axis stepper motors.
Since I have change this config I have only 1 working.

Any suggestions please
Do I change the m584 part so it's y2?
Or is that something different?

M584 X0 Y1:3 Z4 E2 (unless you're on 3.3.0 where you can omit the E entirely)

@jay_s_uk
absolutely Bluddy brilliant..

I am now up and running again..

Thank you so much both of you

[Craigylad86]

@jay_s_uk
no way
Z is now running in reverse..

[jay_s_uk]

@craigylad86 add an M584 line for P4
