      Post heading:
      Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet
      Firmware Electronics: Duet Ethernet 1.02 or later
      Firmware Version: 2.04RC1 (2019-07-14b1)
      Web Interface Version: 1.22.6
      CoreXY_UV, ZZ (Nema 23,23_34,17, 34,34)
      E3D Supervulcano 2.85- 1.4 nozzle
      E3D Supervulcano 1.75- 1.0 nozzle
      2x Bondtech QR
      XYU closed loop
      XYZU ;EXTERNAL drivers on expansion breakout board v1.1

      Printer is working fine, so we would like to add the laser filament monitor to do the measuring
      of the intended extrusion;
      We would like to create data with a simple program for the M592 D0 A? B?
      and M592 D1 A? B? command.

      So we found the following code on the forum and added the M591 comment.

      M117 Start Extrusion Measurement.
      G1 X0 Y430 F6000
      M83
      G1 X100 E25 F60
      M400
      M591 D0; show measurement??
      M291 S3 R"Measure extrusion 25mm" P"Measure filament taken at 1mm/sec extrusion then press OK"

      But no success.

      Change R% and E values in the M591..
      The final answer is no data received.

      My original setup in the config file;
      M591 D0 P5 C"e0_stop" R40:120 E3.0 S1 A1
      ; Duet3D laser sensor for extruder drive 0, connected to endstop input (E0), tolerance 40 to 120%, 3mm comparison ;length, enabled, check all Ext. motion
      M591 D1 P5 C"e1_stop" R40:120 E3.0 S1 A1
      ; Duet3D laser sensor for extruder drive 0, connected to endstop input (E0), tolerance 40 to 120%, 3mm comparison ;length, enabled, check all Ext. motion

      So D0 is used for extruder0 =2.85mm
      And D1 for extruder1 =1.75mm

      Switching them on;
      With a working simplify3d printing code, results with a few seconds to a pause and "too little movement"![chrome_9y4gocApGn.jpg](/assets/uploads/files/1586097834407-chrome_9y4gocapgn.jpg

      So for now, the laser filament sensor is not what I expected.
      Some trouble shooting has to be done.

      I am open for suggestions to try.
      All help is appreciated.
      Thanks in advance.

        You are running firmware 2.04RC but the M591 commands in your config.g file are for RRF3. The C parameter is different according to whether you use RRF2 or RRf3.

          Either update to firmware 2.05 (and then 2.05.1) and change your config to match the RRF2 syntax, or if you're ready to jump all in to RRF3 you can update to that and make sure your config is fully updated for the new syntax.

          I would suggest starting with 2.05 and getting everything working there before doing the change to RRF3 just to break up the troubleshooting requirements.

            Thanks for pinpoint this to RRF2/3 syntax.
            I will update to 2.05 and 2.05.1 and stick to the RFF2 syntax for the M591 command
            Changing to RRF3 will be done , if we have stay another month in corona lockdown.

            Thanks for the help...

            stay safe everybody!

            SOLVED !!!
