Sorry, I meant to say "I'm NOW getting a connection..."

I've edited your post for clarity.

Thanks so much to the both of you for all of your input, directions, and suggestions! After stuffing myself with turkey today, I was able to get the Z probe set up for Z homing, at least as a temporary solution. My Z motors are falling out of alignment with each other just from constant Duet restarts after config file changes, so I’ll be getting individual Z endstops set up ASAP.

Thanks again!

@tron_lives said in Manually extruding issues with new interface:

@flyscha I've checked my config and it looks like I'm still having the same problem despite having the correct lines. Is there anything else I can check? I'm only able to get the retract and extrude to come up if a start a job and then immediately cancel it.

You can only extrude and retract if two conditions are met. 1. A tool must be active. 2. The tool must be hot.

From what you say about starting and cancelling a job, it sounds like you still don't have "T0" in your config.g file as I suggested before. So you are relying on there being a "T0" in your sliced gcode file.

Actually, I spent all last night trying everything imaginable and finally I got it figured out. Somehow, the spring that tensions the filament to the extruder gear settled in or got soft at the same time I switched over to the carriage I made to house the Precision Piezo. This was causing the extruder gear to slip on the filament when it needed to feed quicker, but was still fine at slower speeds.

I chased my tail a little bit so I had to bring all the other settings back to normal once the tension was fixed, but now everything is working great.

Thanks for everyone's help, and sorry for wasting your time 🙂 On the plus side, I learned quite a bit by going through everything to try and figure it out.
