      Hi,

      I have a Duet3 6HC and two 3HC configured to drive 10 stepper motors.
      Axes: XYZ UVW ABC & D

      Firmware is 3.1.1
      SBC mode with a RPi4, LCD TS and booting directly from SATA SSD on USB3.0

      6HC defaults to CAN address 0
      3HC have CAN address of 1 & 2 by way of the DIP switches

      I have done updates & upgrades etc
      sudo apt-get updates
      sudo apt-get upgrade
      M997 B0
      M997 B1
      M997 B2
      M997 S0:2

      The 10th stepper "D" on driver 2.0 used to work but now does not move. (I have been tidying up config.g)
      If I swap the CAN addresses of the 3HC boards, this anomaly follows CAN address 2
      So I can prove the stepper drivers have not blown up.
      Tried the 10th stepper "D" on 2.1 & 2.2 too, does not move.

      Any endstops configured for board 2 DO work and are shown in DWC
      ; 3HC Board 2
      M574 D1 S1 P"^!2.io0.in"
      ;M574 ?1 S1 P"^!2.io1.in"
      ;M574 ?1 S1 P"^!2.io2.in"

      In DWC all the 10 axes XYZ UVW ABC & D are shown.

      However, in response to M584 I get:
      Driver assignments: X0.0 Y0.1 Z0.2 U0.3 V0.4 W0.5 A1.0 B1.1 C1.2 E0.3, 10 axes visible

      Why is axis D2.0 not reported, but E0.3 instead ?
      I would have expected E2.0
      I have not configured any extruders.

      I have checked my config.g about 10 times now, can't see any typos etc

        Can you send M98 P"config.g" and report any errors?

          I have run your config.g file on RRF 3.2RC1 in standalone mode and I get this in response to M584:

          Driver assignments: X0.0 Y0.1 Z0.2 U0.3 V0.4 W0.5 (r)(c)A1.0 (r)(c)B1.1 (r)(c)C1.2 (r)(c)D2.0 E0.3, 10 axes visible

          So the D axis configuration is working. The reason that E0.3 is reported is that RRF configures a default extruder. I may change this in the 3.2 release.

          Are you sure that your board is still running firmware 3.1.1 ? Run M115 to check.

            No errors reported, green background to above text in console, assume it's OK ?

              Thanks. Please retry with 3.2RC1 when the package is published.
