ah okay i get the issue, so this is an extra servo just for the hotend unit.
my plan for the z axis stepper drivers is to use the TMC5160 from the 6HC board -
@Lexan correct. You can't drive an external driver using a 6HC
-
@Lexan ah i see my fault, the 6XD can, right ?
Edit: just seen that make's no sense for my situation. -
@Lexan yes, the 6XD can.
In the duet 3 family it's pretty much yet the 6XD or 1XD boards for each motor with an external driver -
@jay_s_uk okay this fix the problem that i didnt seen comming, but wont answer my problem i see comming
can i control the 25 kg servo via the 1lc toolboard ?
and if yes, wich port can i use? -
@Lexan do you have a part number for it?

i will check that out tmrw, just play with the idea to use a 3hc board instead the 2x 1lc
-
@Lexan should be a DSSERVO DS3225

I would say not. seems like it can pull up to 1.9A which is too much for a toolboard
-
@Lexan any recommends how to controll this one instead ?
i think ~2A will be also too much for the 6hc -
@Lexan it may well be. Best to just use a step down converter.
The control can still be from the toolboard or 6HC. -
@Lexan okay but then the control could also be from a toolboard, right ?
the way to the hotend is about 4 meters, so i would like to take the cables as short as possible -
@Lexan yes to controlling from the toolboard. you'd either have to run a separate 5v cable or mount a stepdown converter on the toolhead
