Dual Z Axis
-
I'm building a rather large printer at the moment and one issue I have is that when / if the printer looses power the Z axis drops (it's got quite some weight to it). This wouldn't be a problem if both sides would drop equally, however one side is slightly heavier than the other.
It's a typical core XY build for reference.
My plan is to set up the second Z Axis motor on E0 (Drive 3) but I just wanted to run things by here to check I'm doing it correctly as I can't find a easy way to do it with the config tool.
I've gone into my config.g and changed / added the below:
M584 X0 Y1 Z2:3 E4 ; set drive mapping
M671 X-50:550 Y250:250 S4I assume this is correct but wanted to check with others / anyone who's done similar.
I assume I also need to do the same for my endstop but uncertain as to where I would need to do this. I've wired my second end stop to E0 STOP but can't figure out where I tell the board that it's not actually a E Stop

@Bewaren This should help:
https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Connecting_hardware/Z_probe_auto_levellingIt shows how to use M574 to specify two endstops for 1 axis.
