I didn't quite find what I was looking for, but I figured it out.

What I did was start a 20x20 cube print, with different color infill and hit print.

I watched the layers, and guessed how much it was off by.

I paused the print, sent the G10 P1 Yx.x offset code with my new number for Y, and a M208 Ux.xx for offsetting the second extruder in X.

Then I homed X, and resumed the print. I would let it run a couple layers, then look at what needed adjustment. Then I repeated this process until I was happy with the result.

It was as "Live" tuning as I could figure out. It wasn't so bad.

And then I found the answer after making this post. That's my life haha.

The answer is 12, in case someone searches the exact questions I did and couldn't find the info they wanted.

I am also having a similar issue on the duet2 and rrf 2.05

Layer one is perfect on tool0, but tool1 is too high. Changing my G10 Z offset for the second tool has no effect on the first layer, but it will be accounted for in subsequent layers.

Is there a way to babystep one axis while printing to align both extruders on an IDEX system?

For instance, mid print I could see that the extruders are misaligned. If I were to babystep X while printing I would be able to change the offset of the active extruder and take note, to then offset it in the config file.

I'd rather not do this longhand if I don't have to.

Hello! I am about to undertake a huge project for myself, and will be wiring a few printers with both the Duet Wifi/Duex5 and the Duet3 with tool boards and all that jazz.

My question is, Is there a blank wiring diagram available that I can just fill in as I wire?

I would love a diagram that is numbered, with a resource key and blank lines for my notes.

Then the key would be labeled the resource that I need to use when configuring the hardware. For instance on the Duex 5, the board is labeled E2 in real life. The current wiring diagram shows it is Drive 5. That is all good. But PWM4 is not very straightforward. Same with other smaller IO's. Having an input legend with a notes section would make things very easy to keep a record of both your wiring for future troubleshooting, and keeping what you have plugged into what straight when writing the firmware.

It's very hard to describe what I want to see, when the existing diagrams are still very good, and I know many will find my request silly.

Like most of my ideas, someone usually has beaten me to it. So I figured I'd ask if this already exists.

Thanks for the help guys.

I had tested continuity of the heater wires once while tapping and shaking the cable chain and the rest of the harness, and they checked out. I decided to check them again, but this time while moving the carriage around. There was a dead spot towards the back and middle of travel, where I would loose contuinity.

I've replaced the heater wires and hopefully that is that.

I was using that red reinforced silicone heater that comes on the heaters. I have never had that stuff burn before, but I am thinking that has to have been what that smell was. I know what motors, and circuit boards, and regular wires, and plastic smell like when they are burning. But not that stuff. Maybe now I do.

This is the wire routing.

The regained connection is a result of me resetting the heater fault, turning the heater back on, and resuming the print.

The wires are ran through a cable chain. The only connector for the heater wires is an XT30 connector, near the heater. The wires are flowing nicely, and nothing is sharply bent other than the heavier wires going into the cartridge itself (they have to be).

I will attempt to get a couple pictures.

I have no idea how to upload images, on my list of things I don't know.

Ok, I have thrown out nearly a spool of filament, and this is getting old.

The other day, I was printing a long print over night, and noticed an unusual burning smell in the morning. It was something new I haven't smelled before and I really couldn't figure out what the smell was, or where it was coming from. Sniffing up close... I couldn't find it. I've been cautiously babysitting my printer during shorter runs, and everything has been working fine...

I had a print just stop, and seen a print cancelled warning due to heater fault. I figured that had to be related to the smell. I happily swapped my heater cartridge. While I was at it, I installed my PT100 I have been putting off.

So with a new heater, heater block, nozzle and heat break I felt confident that my problem was solved. That is until I had another long print fail for heater fault. I need these parts, and cannot babysit a 20 hr print, so I have no choice to run them over night. (They are at work, not in a residential building).

I have changed the heater, again, investigated my wiring and connectors, and everything seems to check out.

I am not running a fan at all (this seems to be a common issue).
I have ran the autotune a couple times now.
Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later + DueX5
Firmware Version: 1.21 (2018-03-21)
WiFi Server Version: 1.21
Web Interface Version: 1.21

This last time it faulted while I was nearby. I was able to snag a screenshot after I resumed printing.

What should I look into now?

Thanks for the reply.

It is something in the Duex board itself. If I take a known good axis/motor, plug it into the faulty driver, and remap it in the firmware, the problem will happen on the bad driver only. Come to think of it though, it could possibly be any of the components... The WifI main board, or even the ribbon cable connecting them. I'm just not sure.

As for diagnosing the circuit and components, I just don't have those skills. I do know how to hit a board with some hot air and pluck a chip off though.

I purchased my board from Fillastruder, back in Feb 2018. I did inform them at the time of the issue, and they said to send it back within 6 months. Here I am 17 months later haha. I wouldn't expect warranty service at this point.
