new tool isn't working...
-
Hey there,
tried to a assign a new tool but it seems it doesn't work. I can select it from the Tools but it looks funny - asking to select/deselect and load filament. I already made tool 0 which is working fine and doesn't have those type of options.thoughts?
here's my config:

@cj-bravo Well you haven't assigned a heater to the tool so that might be the problem. But can you be a bit more specific rather than " I can select it from the Tools but it looks funny".
Can you also tell us a bit more about your printer because the configuration is strange. You seem to have 3 extruders drives is that correct? But for tool zero you have a mixing ratio of 10:1 which would indicate that the extruders are running in a "push pull" arrangement and that one extruder is running 10 times slower than the other. Is that also correct? I'm guessing it might be because you have some very odd looking steps per mm settings. You are also allowing cold extrudes so is this something other than a FDM printer?
We could really do with a bit more information.

Its a modified cr10 -> 3d ceramic printer.
mixing ratio is for feeder and print-head.
feeder is on drive 0
print-head (8cm) is for drive 1
print-head (3cm) is for drive 2tool 0 which is feeder and print-head 8cm works fine.
drive 1 and 2 are on the DUEX5.not applying a heater to the tool worked well on a previous attempt try I had.
When selecting tool 3cm the windows pops. tool 8cm doesn't do that.
After selecting tool 3cm the extruder/retract are clickable but the stepper does nothing.

@cj-bravo I'm still a little confused about the physical layout of your machine and what each tool is supposed to do what but I have two ideas that might help.
Firstly, near the top of your config.g file you have "M568 ; tool mix ratios on"
But you haven't specified a tool so that command would probably apply to all tools and as you haven't defined a mixing ratio for the tool 1, that could be the problem. The solution is easy because that M568 command is deprecated from firmware 1.19 onwards so if you are using a version later than 1.19, you can simply omit it. Alternatively, if you are using an earlier firmware, you could use M568 P0 which would turn on mixing only for tool 0 but not for tool 1.I think that will cure your problem but if not you could define both tools as mixing but set the ratio for tool1 to only use one extruder drive. So.....
M563 P0 H1 D0:1 ; Define tool 0
M563 P1 D0:1:D2 ; Define tool 1 ; add the other two drives to this tool
M567 P0 E10:1 ; MIXING RATIO
M567 P0 E0:0:1; mixing for tool 1 to only use drive 2.I think my first suggestion should work but let us know.

ok. so not sure what happened but it seems to work fine right now.
Its the same config as I did before...
It seems that the drop down menu of the tool disappears when the tool a mixed-ratio tool.
thanks for the trouble.
