      I get this error when i try M98 P"config.g"

      Error: Setting not available for external drivers
      Warning: Macro file config-override.g not found
      This is my configuration file.
      config (1).g

      I have one motor on each of x,y and z axes. and one extruder motor. Extruder is connected on to 1XD board and Z is connected to HCL board. The main board is 6HC v1.02. Firmware is 3.4.5.

      Can anyone help me please. Thanks in advance.

        Well the warning about config_override.g is simple. You have an M501 near the very end of your config file but you don't have the actual override file. Either disable/remove the M501 or add a empty config-override.g file

        As to the other error perhaps it is this: M569 P40.0 S1 T2:2:2:2.

        Remove the T parameter and see what happens.

            So you removed the T parameter?

                You are "re-booting" after changing config.g - correct?

                    Just to be safe try a re-boot. I vaguely recall that some configuration settings need a re-boot to clear them.

                    I always re-boot to be safe.

                        OK thanks.

                        Let me take another look.

                          While I ponder this you could try a "brute force" approach and edit things so you are:

                          • configuring X only
                          • test
                          • then add Y
                          • test
                          • then add Z
                          • test

                          Tedious but likely to reveal the problem.

                            Oh, you have a M569.7 command twice.

                            It may or may not matter.

                              @fcwilt I did this, X,Y and Z axis were fine. The error came when I had the extruder configuration alone.

                                Good job.

                                Now we can focus on axis E.

                                How about adding back each E related item and test.

                                One of them should be the source of the error.

                                Again tedious but likely effective.

                                    Good job.

                                    I know it was tedious but it worked.

                                    I wonder how you do set the current for that stepper - clearly related to using the 1XD board.
