Machine properties - Logical drive - weird assignment

[CJ.BRAVO]

Hey, I've got this configuration:

M569 P0 S0 ; Drive X goes backwards
M569 P1 S0 ; Drive Y goes backwards
M569 P2 S1 ; Drive Z1 goes forwards
M569 P3 S0 ; Drive E0 goes backwards FEEDER
M569 P4 S1 ; Drive Z2 (E1) forwards
M569 P5 S0 ; Drive PRINT-HEAD (E2)
M584 X0 Y1 Z2:4 E3:5 P4 ; Use E1 for Z axis

Dual Z, and 2 extrudes on E0 and E2 (DUEX5).
E0 is for 2nd Z axes.

why in the machine properties I dont see the E2, but E0 and E1 only ?

thanks!

You have configured 2 drivers as extruders, so it is showing those.

so in the machine properties it goes by order of extrudes? not the assigned drive?

The rows are in order of configured axes followed by configured extruders, regardless of what driver numbers you have assigned them to. The "Endstops hit" column is the odd one out.

ok thanks.

another question if I got you here there's a command to have the machine stop immediately what ever its doing ?
there's the emergency stop but it requires a reboot. M0 as I understood will wait for the "move" to finish but I would want something to stop the move and doesnt require any rebooting.

thoughts ?

thanks!

Not yet, but this is on the wish list. Note, stopping a move abruptly is likely to cause missed steps, so re-homing afterwards may be needed.

@dc42

got it, thanks!

@cj-bravo

firmware updates should be checked online or there's an auto-update checker?
