@phaedrux Yeah, so far I have only been using / configuring single-tool machines. The Extruder tool on 23.0 works fine. but because its on a CAN-extension board the M571 command doesn't work.
The tool is defined to use both drives: M563 P0 D0:1
I have tried to configure the Extruder tool with drives 0.0 and 23.0 and had partial success: If I write M584 E:0.0:23.0 then the output on extrude pin switches, but I don't see any STP/DIR signals on 23.0.
If I write M584 E:23.0:0.0 however, I get no output on extrude pin switches, but I see STP/DIR signals on 23.0...

Reading through the gcode wiki again I noticed that I probably need to define a mixing ratio, as our slicer doesn't output multiple E values...
I have added the corresponding command to the config.g:
; set tool mixing ratio
M567 P0 E1:1
........ and now it finally works!
I have added this block onto the end of the config.g
; SETUP OUTPUT ON EXTRUDE
; additional "virtual" E driver

Thanks for sending me into the right direction @Phaedrux !
