@deckingman thanks for your reply, unfortunately the file doesn't exist.

why is it that when i turn the printer off then on again, the settings have been saved but the endstop doesnt work and the z axis moves up when homing z, my endstop switch is at the bottom.

@phaedrux the max rated current on the 2 extra extruders are 2amp, the original creality steppers are cr-10 42-34 and i couldn't find current ratings for it. when i move the axis it was easier to move it down,

Thanks Phaedrux, looks like those changes worked.
now i just have to connect the duex5 and hopefully start printing again.

thanks again for all your help.

damn, no idea what happened but it is having the same problem again

i finally fixed it by making these changes.

G1 S1 Z10 F100 ; move Z slowly towards the switch until it triggers
G90 ; back to absolute mode

currently i only have the duet connected, ill be connecting the duex5 once i get this working.

thanks for getting back to me so quick,
no probe
ive had a quick read of the link before but there must be something im missing.
here are the settings i have:

been trying to upgrade my cr-10s with Duet 2 WIFI + Duet 5, i got most of it working(eventually) except for the Z endstop.
i've got both drive 2 plugs populated(2 z steppers) and z endstop plugged where it should be, when i try and home the z axis, the endstop is hit but the stepper keeps going until i switch the printer off.
the endstops LEDs are lit when they are not pressed(guessing active high), when i try home the z axis, it makes a funny sound for few seconds then drops past the switch. this is my config.g, please can someone help? ive been working on this upgrade for over a week. GRRRR

Thank you

Hello All, im a noob and upgrading my cr-10s to use Duet 2 Wifi board so i can use the Diamond head 3 in 1.
when i'm asked what machine i have, i get Delta, CoreXY and so on, what would i choose for the cr-10s.

Thanks in advance.
