Hi,

I can't seem to figure out how to get the machine to run a multi-point manual mesh leveling like you can do with marlin.

Whatever I do it always seems to run automatically and either crashes the head, or just pretends it has been triggered.

This is my bed.g code…

All axis home to their MAX value. There is no probe on the hotend and only an endstop on Z+. From my understanding of things I should be able to manually jog the bed up and down to get the right numbers at each of the points. What am I missing?

@t3p3tony 3.4.0.b4

@dc42 ok, i shall rewire and set the z probe / endstop to io.1

@jay_s_uk

I think something very odd is going on.

Even with no M558, and nothing being assigned to use the pin, I can't assign anything to that pin.

@T3P3Tony

yes, even with M558 commented out.

I have a toolboard configured as board 2 with three endstops in series, X, Y & Z. I have the Z probe set to use the same endstop. The z-probe can be seen to trigger in DWC when a switch is pressed.

However, when issuing M574 X1 P"2.io0.in" S1 i get an error telling me the pin isn't free.

Error: M574: Pin 2.io0.in is not free

This happens even when the z-probe is not setup with M558 P8 C"2.io0.in" H3 F360 I0 T20000

I have been unable to find out why. I have a similar setup using X & Y endstops on a single toolboard, and that seems to run just fine on a different machine.

What am I doing wrong?

@wilriker Fantastic! Works exactly as desired. Have my upvote!

@wilriker Ahh ok. was just a thought. would be a nice feature to have though

Is tehre a way to get terminal messages displayed in the console?

For example I need to see a list of usb devices with lsusb, is it possible to have that list returned as an M117 message or similar?

thank you

What is it i need to be looking for?

Hello,

I'm a complete idiot when it comes to programming and I am finding the instructions a little vague. I feel I need some assistance please

The Installation is as follows.

Download.

Does this mean git clone? That's what I did anyway.

Rename to just execonmcode

Rename what? There are a load of .go files in the directory, do I rename one of those?

chmod etc

The rest of the install I can manage. I think.

Thank you for your time.
