@Aussiephil said in Ditto print - concurrent print with Duet v2 board:
@dc42 Cool and Thanks.
Just 1 carriage with the nozzles a fixed distance apart. I was sure i had asked this years ago but searching turned up nothing, appreciate your time.
So creating a tool that uses both nozzles does that mean i need to to set up 3 tool definitions and target the correct tool when slicing or can i via the firmware itself either from the touch screen or the web interface say turn on ditto mode and have the firmware drive T1 and T0 despite the gcode being sliced only for T0?
What i mean by 3 tools is...
T0 - Primary normal nozzle
T1 - Secondary nozzle (used for support etc)
T2 - T0 + T1 running in ditto modeWhat i'm used to is, slice for T0 and then on the FFC enable ditto mode and it just uses both nozzles.
interesting when i forget to turn it off and print something bigger 🙂
Cheers
Phil
Should be pretty simple to setup with the M563 command (unsure if you would even need a G10 after that...)
I run an IDEX machine where I have "ditto" mode setup on T2. While not a perfect process - I first slice for T0, and then post-process the gcode file, changing all instances of T0 to T2 (I use the Cura post-processing plugin, doing a "search and replace", but should be easy enough to manually change in a text editor).
