    • Expansion Breakout board - Configure Drive 5 and 6 with endstops

      Hi, I am using the duet expansion breakout control to drive 2 separate motors (Drive 5 and Drive 6 - referring to https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Expansion_breakout_board) . However, I wish to configure them to work with the extruder end stops (E0 and E1). How would i go about doing this?

      Thank you in advance.

    • RE: Configuration of endstop and heater decouple feature

      @dc42 Greatly appreciate the detailed reply. I think I understand what you mean.

      Shall put an order through for a board.

      Will update you with my progress.

    • RE: Configuration of endstop and heater decouple feature

      @dc42 Thank you for the quick reply. Just to clarify, I can use the endstop port E0 and/or E1 with a switch and create a temporary axis to which the E0 and/or E1 is associated with homing to the endstop switch, all in the Gcode file generated after slicing, not the config.g file?

      Also is there any guides you now about which could aid me in the creation of a temporary axis?

      Since there is the flexibility to configure the sensitivity of the heater protection, then that should work.

    • Configuration of endstop and heater decouple feature

      I am creating a bespoke printer and require using an electronic board which gives me the ability to connect:

      1. X, Y, Z (two motors for z) stepper motors with single endstops (set for minimum distance)
      2. A stepper motor connection for the extruder
      3. And an end stop for the extruder programmed to move the motor a certain distance, then return to a specified position (just like opening and closing a valve)
      4. Majority of 3d printers in the firmware have the safety feature for the heater cartridges which decouple the heater based on temperature rise (https://github.com/repetier/Repetier-Firmware/blob/master/src/ArduinoAVR/Repetier/Configuration.h#L203)– I would like to disable this feature

      With the 1st and 2nd points raised it seems that the Duet 2 Wi-Fi fits the bill.

      It’s the 3rd point I need to clarify. My understanding would be that I could use the endstop for the extruder, and then maybe code through the config.g (which is accessible through the SD card?) to allow the specified motion raised in point 3 as mentioned in https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M574_Set_endstop_configuration ‘M574’ and ‘M577’ commands?

      Also is the 4th point configurable through the config.g file?

      I am just making sure i have understood the configuration capabilities of the Duet3D before purchasing it?

      Appreciate any help,
