Error: Attempting to extrude with no tool selected.

Norder

Hello dear community,
Excuse me for my english ... it's Google Translate.

I have a little problem with the following error message.
"Error: Attempting to extrude with no tool selected."

When I start a print job, the print bed is picked up as desired and then the hotend, then the print head moves into the print bed center and takes a reading with the BLTouch and then moves outside of the print bed near the home position and extrudes slightly Filament to fill the nozzle.
Exactly at this moment, the error message appears and no filament is extruded, but he starts directly to print.

But if I heat up the print bed and the nozzle to the desired temperature and then start the print job, then everything works as desired and there is no error message.

I have tried it with different firmware versions, but the error happens with each version.
Currently I use the 2.02 ... but will update to the latest version again.

Here is the content of my config.g file ...

--------------- Config.g End -----------------

Thank you for your time and help.

P.S. .:
I am only since 2 weeks owner of the Duet Wifi version 1.04C
So everything is still new and I still have a lot to learn.
But it will be !

A great piece of hardware !!!

Hi,

Where is the gcode that does the priming of the hotend?

We need to see that.

Likely you are just missing a T0 command to select the tool.

Hello Frederick,

where do I find the sequence?
In the start area of the print job file e.g. cube.gcode, or in the start g-code area of the slicer?

Sorry, but English is a little bit of a challenge for me and Google Translate sometimes translates very confused.

@Günter-Jibben

Hi,

By "cube.gcode" are you referring to a file you are trying to print?

I would check the gcode that the slicer executes when starting a print.

Good Morning,

I have appended T0 to the end of the config.g file.
Now it seems that everything works as it should.

In the Start-GCode of my Slicers (Prusaslicer) I had not entered the command T0.

I think the problem only occurred when I entered my filaments in the web interface of the duet.
Before that I only registered 1 filament there ... now it is 3.

I created a file start.g in the Duet directory earlier (did not have a start.g file before) and entered the same GCode from my slicer (+ T0 at the end), but that did not work.

I have to deal more with the file system of the Duet.
But I have the Duet Wifi 1.04C only a few days, so it's still pretty new to me.
Before, I used Marlin.

Thank you for your help in the early morning.
It is now 4 o'clock in the morning, and I have to go to bed slowly now.

Greetings from the North Sea coast of Germany

Hi,

Glad I was able to be of some help.

I've been to a few places in Europe but never made it to Germany.

Still on my wishlist of places to visit.

I created a file start.g in the Duet directory

start.g would need to go in the /sys directory

fcwilt

Hi,

I've been giving this some thought.

I don't think config.g is the best place for T0.

You really should find the place that will always execute the T0 command at the start of a print.

Otherwise, if by chance you deselect tool 0, you will get the error again.

@fcwilt

nothing stopping you from putting it in both the config and the start of the g code

I'm not the OP. I was simply making a suggestion to the OP.

Hello everybody,

@ Phaedrux
I had created the start.g in the sys directory.
But I think it was not wise or correct to copy the start GCode from the slicer 1:1 !?
Plus the T0 command at the end.

@ fcwilt & Veti
So far, the error message has not reappeared.

I will deal in the near future with the file system of the duet to know which file causes what and which can be deleted if necessary.

As I said ... I am only at the beginning what concerns the Duet.

fcwilt helped me with the sentence ... the command T0 could be missing ... very helpful.

This community alone is worth buying the duet.
