      If you just want a fan active when a print is in progress you can configure a fan on a PWM fan port as thermostatically controlled. The simplest way is to tie it to the hotend heater, such that when the hotend heater is at print temp such as during a print, the fan is enabled, which may work for you as I understand you are trying to cool a stepper motor.

      Please share your config.g if you want a more specific example gcode.

          @paolozampini1973 Yes I know so it's much simpler but I don't want this because I can keep an extruder at temperature because I have to do something a test anything the modules can be in stand-by I want to create this rule which is very important to me

              Perhaps you can share the solution that Oliof was so kind to provide and perhaps we can explain it.

                M581 T1 P17 S0 defines trigger 1
                then you need a macro called trigger1.g
                In that Macro you do M106 P5 S0
                M581 T0 P17 S1 defines trigger 0
                then you need a macro called trigger0.g
                In that Macro you do M106 P5 S255

                  That seems pretty straightforward.

                  M581 T1 P17 S0
                  M581 T0 P17 S1

                  would need to go in config.g

                  Then create two macro files in the sys folder: trigger1.g and trigger0.g
                  Those are just text files and you can create them in the web interface or on your computer and upload them. Put the M106 commands into those trigger macros respectively.

                    I did but it doesn't work I don't understand why

                      @paolozampini1973 as I wrote in chat, define triggers using M581 and put the fan control commands in the corresponding trigger macros.

                      Could you please tell me the explanation I don't know where to get the macros are created How to do it I don't understand I hope not to bother you too much

                            Your trigger files do not have the M106 commands as their content.

                                put the following into the file /sys/trigger0.g and nothing else

                                M106 P5 S255

                                  Also, I am assuming you are using a toggle switch like this:

                                    No I'm not using this SWITCH But what does it have to do with it

                                      @paolozampini1973 what kind of switch do you use? show me a photo. A toggle switch with two positions will work with my example. If you use a momentary / push button switch it will not work like that, another solution is required.

                                          @paolozampini1973 that kind of switch should work with the solution I provided.

                                          But I surely do hope that you are NOT connecting high voltage to the pins!! That would blow up the board.

                                            @oliof So the talk is this I have to activate a fan When activating the x axis and the if Y with the external drivers that I connected EN + EN- when enabled Enables also the fan for as long as notified EN + and when EN- is Disable we will also need the fan but honestly the switch has absolutely nothing to do with it Maybe I didn't explain myself

                                            However I did copy and paste and the fan does not turn on
