I'd like to change the tool numbers displayed on the PanelDue to be "1-based". Is there a way to do it?
I'm trying to have consistent labeling of tools/extruders between the PanelDue UI and PrusaSlicer. The slicer numbers the extruders starting with "1" (even though the gcode output is 0-based) and I'd like to have the PanelDue labels start with 1 also so there is a match.
I'm able to change the labeling in DWC through the S parameter in the M563 command. A new parameter in this command could do it, or another parameter in M575, or even a whole new macro or MXXX command for sending configuration parameters to the PanelDue.

@mikeabuilder the PanelDue is a pretty old product and likely would need a firmware change to accomodate your request.
It would be nice to have though to be able to have named tools.
-
@mikeabuilder are you referring to the numeric labels next to the nozzle icons, on the buttons across the top of the Control page?
-
@dc42 - Yes, those are the labels I'd like to be able to change.

@mikeabuilder as we have a new screen under development, we don't plan any further development on PanelDue except for bug fixes and essential updated to retain compatibility with future firmware versions. So I think your choices are:
-
Modify PanelDueFirmware yourself. Once you are set up to build the project, it should be straightforward to increment the displayed tool numbers.
-
Number your tools from 1 in RRF. Then configure a post-processing script in PrusaSlicer that replaces T0 by T1, T1 by T2 etc. You will probably need to replace the tool number parameter in a few other commands, e.g. M104, also G10 with P parameter if PrusaSlicer uses that.
