Hi, thank you again for your help with this. It seems the issue was that the wrong angle was defined in the macro for the Coupler unlock - so it was calling it and rotating it to the wrong spot. I did some adjustments to the unlock macro and it seems to now home to the right spot! Thanks again for your help, it is much appreciated. Best, Emma

@phaedrux Hi, I was wondering if you have had a chance to look at the files I have shared below? I would be really grateful for your further help as I am still facing this problem. Thank you again for your further time and assistance. Best, Emma

Hi thank you for getting back to me. When I run M98 P'config.g' it tells me there is no macro file even though there is one in the list of files. If i run M98 Pconfig.g it resets the wifi access point and the access point does not work anymore. So I have to roll back to older files.

The result of M122 is:

The homing files I have are the ones from the rrf3 - I modified the angle on in the lock and unlock Coupler macros to ensure that the toolchanger bar is horizontal and vertical for unlock and lock positions (as before they were slightly offset with the angles used inthe original macro).

I hope this clarifies and thank you again for taking a look at this!

Best,

Emma

Hi, I was wondering if I could get some help. I have been following the toolchange calibration process in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37thDl6TVnw.

Once I completed the process and ran the toolchange_test.gcode. This worked the first time. I then ran it a second time and the toolhead moved backwards with the E3 extruder still attached.

I noticed that the coupler was no longer horizontal, and no longer vertical.

I homed the machine again and then modified the C values for the angle of the coupler for unlock and lock in the Coupler-lock and Coupler-unlock macros. I homed the machine again and I get a nice horizontal homed position.

I repeated the process for my E0 extruder and I am finding the same problem - the unlock is no longer horizontal and the toolhead removes the E0 extruder with it.

I was wondering if I could get some help? I am not sure if maybe I have done something wrong, and after repeating the process a few times now I am at a loss.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best,

Emma

Hi, thank you again for your help with this. It seems the issue was that the wrong angle was defined in the macro for the Coupler unlock - so it was calling it and rotating it to the wrong spot. I did some adjustments to the unlock macro and it seems to now home to the right spot! Thanks again for your help, it is much appreciated. Best, Emma

@eyperry Further to my previous message I note I was using the rrf3.x files. I tried also just now to use the rrf2.x files and I got a better result but the coupler unlock and lock positions are still slightly off centre (albeit better than before). I have attached photos of this below.

undefined

@dc42 Hi, thanks for getting back to me. When I press the Home C, it rotates clockwise to the same position as shown in your photograph, and then it rotates anticlockwise to the position in the first image I shared.

I only get the vertical position when I run the coupler lock macro. When I run the coupler unlock macro I get the same position as in the first image I shared again.

Thanks again for looking at this!

Best,

Emma

@eyperry Hi, thank you so much for your help with the firmware update - it is finally now updated and the Z stop is working. I have however now run into another issue - do I need to post this as a new post? My issue is that now when I home the coupler C, it does not go into a horizontal position. When I run the Coupler-Lock macro the coupler is vertical as expected, but when I run Coupler-Unlock macro it is not horizontal. Would you be able to help? Thanks again in advance. Best, Emma

I have attached images of the two positions below so you can see it is not horizontal.

Hi,

Thank you for getting back to me.

Yes the LED goes out when I press the z switch.

Thank you. The firmware version it is running is 2.05.1 and the electronics is Duet WiFi 1.02 or later + DueX5 Firmware date 2020-02-09b1 - is there something different I need to do to update these?

@kb58 Hi thank you for getting back to me. I have attached my config file below as well as photographs of the wiring of the toolchanger head. If you would be able to have a look and assist further it would be much appreciated. Thanks! Best, Emma
