Error for fan not found running 3.4.6

GeneRisi

I am getting a strange error, "Fan 4 not found". I would like to trace it. What gcodes besides M106 and M107 might generate that error message? Also, is there a way to see which line number caused the last error?

It is occurring in the main body of my print.

fcwilt

@GeneRisi

Then it is very likely M106 or M107.

Have you scanned the file you are trying to print for those commands?

Frederick

GeneRisi

@fcwilt Yes, I have. I am starting to suspect that running 3.5.x on Paneldue and 3.4.6 on Duet2 might have caused the problem. I have reinstalled the 3.4 version of Paneldue and am running the same code file to see if it still puts out the warning message.

fcwilt

@GeneRisi

Do you have any macros that are called by the print code that might be trying to control fan 4?

Frederick

GeneRisi

@fcwilt I have macros but nothing appears to be calling for Fan 4, in fact, Fan 4 is not even assigned in config.g.

The model code has only 3 instances of M106 and no instances of M107.

fcwilt

@GeneRisi

Just as a test try to control fan 4 (which doesn't exist) with M106/M107 to see if you get the same error message.

@GeneRisi Could you have assigned a non-existing fan 4 to a tool or in a tool change macro, and it is trying to set it on a tool change? It may help to post your config.g, otherwise we have very little to go on.

@droftarts Thanks, Ian. I started a trace because I am even more suspicious that it has to do with running 3.5.x on my 5 inch Paneldue.
