@rushmere3d The heart of my problem was that I simply edited the S labels to H in all my Homing scripts. Bad idea. I should have simply swapped out the old files for e3d’s new homing files. My old files used the M574 command which reset the end stops incorrectly for the update. I have no idea why the m574 command was in the original homing scripts…

The second problem was because I had not read the ALL of the docs on the pin out labels. As such I had assumed the exclamation mark was on all pinout names. I went back and ready the whole thing and found the ! Sets the polarity of the connections.

Heaters all tuned. Almost ready to print. Again thanks to all for the help.
And… yeah I’ll talk about the update in the 3d Printing Today podcast.

@andy-cohen DOH!!! The "!" in the zstop label! AH!

Thank you to all here who replied to my post I appreciate the help.

Chances are though I'm not ready to print just yet and may have more things like this.

@phaedrux On this machine the Z switch is on the tool coupling carriage which rides on the X axis rail. When no tool is on it it acts as the Z end stop and the mesh compensation probe.

I was getting the error right after the first homing move which tells me it was in the homez script. I changed that to the sample E3D script on their website and now I get the message:
"Error: Probe already triggered at start of probing move"

here's the output per your request:

Note I have yet to run PID control routines on my heaters.

@rushmere3d Yeah... the end stop def was before. I switched it and it still returned the same error.

So next I swapped out the homing scripts from mine to those from the E3D sample files. My older files had M574 commands in them which could easily have fired off the error. Now I get something quite different:
"Error: Probe already triggered at start of probing move"
Which to me indicates it's expecting a closed switch not an open one.

@norder My first sentence is its a Toolchanger.
I tried ...
M574 Z1 S1
M574 C1 S3

C is the tool coupler and it uses amps from motor stall as well as Y axis for end stop on my machine.
It did not work either.
I also switched out the zhome script with another written by E3D... no difference. It keeps saying the same error. Weird.
I need help from the RRF gods!

@norder yes… if this were a typical machine which has a z end stop switch activated when the bed is drawn up to 0.
This is the E3d Toolchanger. The end stop gcode is from E3d. The end stop switch also acts as the z probe and it is mounted on the coupler carriage.

Yes... I see the missing "!" in the zstop label. Made no diff.
I assume the problem is related to the "C0". These lines were taken from the E3D sample files.

This is a toolchanger. X is fine, Y is fine. Z? Nope!
Console returns:
Error: Failed to enable endstops
Error: endstop type 0 is no longer supported. Use type 1 and invert the input pin instead.

@andy-cohen Updates to 3.4.1 went OK... I updated the Homing scripts(S to H for G1)...
Now the config file. Could you please take a look and let me know what I have to change???

@phaedrux Got it. Thanks. Chances are I'll have issues when I get to the config file.

@phaedrux Still good. I think that was the problem.

So should I update to 3.3 or go right to 3.4.1???

Then after that will be doing the config file. This is a tool changer.

@phaedrux I think I figured it out. I got the web control to load.
Reloaded it 3 times and it worked OK.
I have a PanelDue (already updated FW for 3.3 not 3.0) which was connected physically but on the screen it said it was connecting. Seemed to make sense there may have been a lot of EM noise on this cable which goes across the entire box to the front. I disconnected it and it's been OK for the longest amount of time.
I tried so many things! I even put a repeater right next to the board! It was the noisy Paneldue cable all the time.

So assuming this was the problem... what should I do next???

@phaedrux

@phaedrux DOH!
It lost the connection!
How do I upload pics on this system?

@phaedrux So... what should I do next? 3.3? 3.4.1? Stop and get a shot of Whiskey?

@phaedrux Connected! and staying connected!

@phaedrux I'll give it a go. I was going to ask if that was possible.

@phaedrux Yes.

@phaedrux Mac OSX 12.5.1

@phaedrux I can't get it to connect now.
