multiple lines of gcode executed at the same time

[Jos_mosa]

We are making a machine with a 6HC and 5 3HC and 1 1XD and we find that multiple lines of gcode get executed at the same time. (probably with a milliseconds delay)

here is our config.g file

G90									; absolute mode
M83									; relative extrusion
M111 S0                             ; Debug off
G21 								; Work in millimetres
 
; Display initial welcome message

G4 S2  						 ;wait for expansion boards to start
 
;M564 H0 S1		; H0=move without homing S1=move within boundaries
 
;stepper setup S=CW/CCW R=enable high/low

M84 S30             		   			; Set idle timeout

so we made a little macro

G1 X100 F6000
G1 Y100 F6000

and what happens is

G1 X100 Y100 F6000

What are we doing wrong?

@jos_mosa

What do you want it to do?

Frederick

[danzaywer]

@jos_mosa if you want a movement to be performed at the end of the previous one you have to use M400

G1 X100 F6000
M400
G1 Y100 F6000

[Jos_mosa]

@fcwilt We want it to move to the right.
Then, when it has moved to the right it, move to the back.
In that sequence.

But in stead, it moves to the back right in one go.

[Jos_mosa]

@danzaywer M400 does not do what it should, still the same result.
G4 Sxx does work (as a backup, but should absolutely not be needed)

[dc42]

@jos_mosa what firmware version are you running?

[Jos_mosa]

@dc42
RepRapFirmware for Duet 3 MB6HC version 3.3 (2021-06-15 21:45:47) running on Duet 3 MB6HC v1.01 or later (SBC mode)

Also on the expansion boards

[dc42]

@jos_mosa I'm not aware of any bug in 3.3 that would cause the issue you report. However, there have been major changes in the development of RRF 3.4 that may affect the behaviour. So please upgrade to RRF 3.4RC2 and see if you still get the incorrect behaviour. If you do then I will attempt to reproduce your configuration.

[Jos_mosa]

@dc42 we updated to 3.4RC2 but now the pi will not connect to it.
DCS is not started.
sudo journalctl -u duetcontrolserver gives: invalid protocol version 6

went for unstable release

[Jos_mosa]

Installed 3.4RC2 and it now works as it should

Thanks for the tips

[dc42]

@jos_mosa thanks, I'll close this thread.
