@CrazyCreator
If you want to use a gcode to turn off the printer there are a couple of options you may try.

Both can invoke a script or program. Your script could be a simple curl command to turn off the relay.

Released v 01.02.04 for DWC 3.5

Changes:

Added precision to custom charts - Existing charts will need to be edited and saved, before the full precision options become available (this is in order to upgrade their config data).
Added toggle to show current value in legend for custom charts.
Changed behaviour to load all BtnCmd Tabs in background on first access, to start custom chart data capture without needing to switch to relevant tab
Added option to quickly switch to BtnCmd and return to DWC dashboard on DWC launch, to allow custom chart's to begin to capture data immediately.
Fixed intermittent issue where panels would occasionally jump off screen in edit mode.
Edit mode behaviour change - When entering/exiting edit mode, screen will remain on current tab, unless tab(s) have been deleted.

Hi,

Been using BtnCmd for a while. Compared to BtnCmd, sliced bread is no longer the best thing ever... it's toast.

Anyway I gather that those of us running RRF 3.4.x are stuck with an older version of BtnCmd - 0.10.15 - which I guess is not getting any updates?

It has a few bugs.

But my real question is does BtnCmd have, or while it have, or could it have a way to persist selected settings between sessions (power off to power on)?

That would be grand!

Correct - 3.5 introduced some major differences and as this is just a spare time project for me, I do not have the time to maintain 2 code bases.

When you say 'persist selected settings' do you mean changing the values of global variables via an input panel, or something else?

And someday when 3.5 is ready for prime time I will move to it. I am not a fan of alpha, beta, gamma and RC releases. Even x.0 releases are best avoided.

I already use BtnCmd to manipulate global variables. It is a great feature.

But it would be grand if certain of the values could be saved in some sort of non-volatile storage so when I come back the the printer the next day they are as I had set them using BtnCmd.

@fcwilt what if you ECHO those variables to a file, and in the next restart you just read thta file again in config.g. This is how Im doing now to store the total printing time of my printer and it works

chimaeragh

@Tinchus Can you give an example (code) of how this works in both situations (save and restore values)? I am trying to achieve something like this.
Thanks

Tinchus

@chimaeragh Sure. For example, when I want to save the total uptime of the machine I execute count.g:
echo >"uptime.g" "global.ontime =",{global.ontime + state.upTime/60}

This saves in uptime.g the value of the global.ontime, and I get that value from the object model

Next time the machine restarts, in config.g I have a M98 P"uptime.g", so the value of the global variable is read again and keeps being incremented.

@Tinchus Thanks
