PanelDue ATX power supply on off toggle?

CNCModeller

Hi All,
Is there an "ATX power supply" on off button on the panel due?

I only installed my new PD over the weekend and couldn't find one like you get on the web interface.

Many thanks

Hi,

Unfortunately, this button does not currently exist.
But: You can write a macro that you save directly in the /macros folder, e.g. ATX toggle.

if state.status == "off" 
	; turn on power
	M80
elif state.status != "processing"
	; turn off power
	M81

This will then be displayed on the Control tab of your PanelDue.

infiniteloop

@CNCModeller I noticed early that some options will always be missing from the crammed interface of the PanelDue, so I added some physical push buttons which allow me to trigger deliberate actions - one of them is to toggle ATX Power on/off (after a confirming dialog).

Thanks, I had created two macros one for on and off, but this is much better.

@infiniteloop nice idea, I'll do this on my printer too.
Many thanks

How did you do this? I assume that you have some sort of switch connected to an I/O pin?

I was contemplating the same thing, then came here to search if someone had already done something similar. I thought about actually polling the voltage, not status.

if boards[0].vIn.current < 23
    M291 S2 R"Power State" P"Turn Printer Power On?" 
    M292 P0
    M80
    G4 P1000        ; wait 1 second for power to stabilize
elif boards[0].vIn.current > 23
    M291 S2 R"Power State" P"Printer Power Off?" 
    M292 P0
    M81
else
    M81

I've provided four physical buttons. From my config.g:

; Define endstops for physical console buttons (from top to bottom):
M950 J6 C"^duex.e6stop"  ; input #6 (endstop E6): button 1
M950 J5 C"^duex.e5stop"  ; input #5 (endstop E5): button 2
M950 J4 C"^duex.e4stop"  ; input #4 (endstop E4): button 3
M950 J3 C"^duex.e3stop"  ; input #3 (endstop E3): button 4
M581 P6 S0 T6 R0  ; #6: active low, ‘trigger6.g’, always enabled (button 1)
M581 P5 S0 T5 R0  ; #5: active low, ‘trigger5.g’, always enabled (button 2)
M581 P4 S0 T4 R0  ; #4: active low, ‘trigger4.g’, always enabled (button 3)
M581 P3 S0 T3 R0  ; #3: active low, ‘trigger3.g’, always enabled (button 4)

Button 4 (aka "duex.e3stop") toggles ATX power, that's the macro 'trigger3.g':

; trigger#3

; Physical button #4 on the console (counted from top)

M400
M300 S4000 P70  ; beep

if state.atxPower == false
	M291 P"Leistungselektrik einschalten?" R"12V Power" S3
	M80  ; ATX power on
else
	M291 P"Leistungselektrik ausschalten?" R"12V Power" S3
	M81  ; ATX power off

@infiniteloop i have an optocoupled relay triggerd by PS_ON pin on the Duet2 board and always on 5V power supply.

I see how you have configured the pin state for enabling the PSU, now I am wondering how to combine the two functions- the screen macro and physical button.
This could apply to say dust collection on a CNC machine too.

Same here.

I'm not sure to understand: a button press triggers the dialog which then requests a confirmation. What do you want to combine more than that?
