RRF3 and 2 separate Z sensors

@Veti said in RRF3 and 2 separate Z sensors:
can you explain what you want to do?
I think I did I want to have andromeda and bltouch both connected in the same time until I'm happy that andromeda will work ok (as so far I know bltouch does) as I don't have the "cohones" to switch to andromeda alone for now 'cause I only have experience with piezo mounted on the extruder and never on the bed, and since this is new to me before I thoroghly test I don't want to remove my bltouch that I wanna use for control, for now. later on, if all goes as planned I'll remove bltouch and leave only andromeda but that config is clear
so for now, I have them both attached and wanna chose which one I'm using... the confusing part is the K parameter in G31 and M558 but not having K parameter for G28, G29 ..

what is the point of K0 and K1 then ?!
I'm still learning RRF3 myself. Let me look into it.
-
I'm pretty sure if I use K0 both times it will work but since there is K parameter maybe having both defined in gcode.g as K0 and K1 and then somehow telling RRF3 to use 0 or 1 .. just like you can select "active tool" there's probbly a way (or will be a way) to select active z probe
-
Yes that may be so, but the usage of the K parameter isn't exactly clear.
It would seem that you may be able to use M558 K# to make that probe number active. So before you invoke the probe with G28/G29/G30 you could use M558 K# first to select the active probe. That's my guess anyway since it's not made explicit. I'll seek clarification.
-
I've received some clarification. The intention of the K parameter is as suspected, but there is currently no means to switch between configured probes.
So at this time I would suggest ignoring the K parameter and simply using the method I described to configure the probe at time of use.
-
cool so K0 and always a full probe definition as initially assumed
-
time to figure out how all this "macro" thing works on RRF so I don't have to copy/paste too much
-
Macro is just a text file with line separated gcode commands. Executing the macro behaves the same as sending the commands via the console.
Config.g and all the homing files are just macros.
The Duet board has no inherent configuration. Without the SD card in the board to provide the config.g it has no personality configured.
-
@Phaedrux I guess so, I just haven't tried it (macro's) yet, so time to get on with that too
