STOP.g

jml

What is supposed to be within stop.g? mine is empty. And where do we find the latest .g files?

Stop.g can contain whatever you want to happen when your print is finished. It can be called with M0 in your slicer end gcode.

For example, mine contains this

; stop.g
; called when M0 (Stop) is run (e.g. when a print from SD card is cancelled)
; Also called by slicer end gcode by M0
;
M400			; Finish move queue
M104 S0 		; Extruder heater off
M140 S0 		; Bed heater off
M106 S255 		; Fan at 100 to cool nozzle and bed

I'm not sure what you mean by the latest g files.

By latest I just was thinking that perhaps there was a standard Stop.g file with stuff in it to start as a starting point for modifying.

During homing, my STOP button works from DWC, but not from the PanelDue. Do these 2 different stop buttons run different files?

@jml I believe the emergency stop buttons send a halt and restart command. They don't run stop.g.

Does the button on the paneldue do anything when you touch it?

jml

@phaedrux it normally resets the board. But if I am setting up my printer and I press home, and I realize it is homing in the wrong direction, I should be able to hit the stop button in order to stop/reset the printer at that moment. I think it waits until the current move is done.

Phaedrux

Yes I think that may be a limitation.

You may want to look into getting a true emergency stop button that can kill the power immediately. Like a big red plunger button.

Hitting the power switch will do the same.

The stop button on PanelDue has the drawback that the command it sends gets queued like other commands, so it will wait for the homing command to finish first. It's on my list to have it send an out-of-band signal that can bypass the queue.

jml

Ah I see, that explains it. I guess I'll get a big emergency stop button until then!

Hey

If I have a similar stop.g file In my sys file and I wanted to trigger this at the end of a print created in simplify 3d all I do is add M0 to the ending script tab on its own it will execute it at the end of the print ?

Thanks

That's right. M0 in the slicer end code will call stop.g if it exists. This is what I use and it works well.
