Best way to change between process

tom33

Hi,

I Would like to implement other process on my machine, what is the best way to do ?

Option 1 :
Different folder and a maccro
Folder : 3D print
Folder : Laser

and a macro like

M505 P"/sys/3D print/"
M98 P"config.g"

Option 2 :

Just one folder and declare different tools in the config.g

and add some Gcode in Tpre, Tpost, Tfree ?

Thanks !

@tom33 If the machine limits remain equal for both processes, I'd go with two separate tools and a single config. If there are bigger diferences, two sys directories for fine-tuning sound reasonable though.

@chrishamm ok, If I use different directories, is there an example of different directories and macro for the change?

Like disable heaters, extruder drive, ... on the new .config of directories.

Thanks!

@tom33 Have a look at M505 https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/M505
