Enable endstops on a Duex5
-
any ideas? Some more to test?
-
Which particular model of the GL8 series are they?
-
Hi,
Its a Gl8h top sensing 3 wire model "normally open" -
Have you set up your M574 command and your homez.g and homeall.g files to tell the firmware that you are using an endstop for Z homing? See https://duet3d.com/wiki/Configuring_RepRapFirmware_for_a_Cartesian_printer. Your files may be set up for Z homing using a Z probe instead, depending on where they came from.

Well I used the configurator to set it but I will go through it again.
Just to be on the safe side.. I connected black signal cable to the outer pin closest to usb port on Duet. Looking at schematics for Duet it looks like it should be the other way around.. but if I do that I get no led light on Duet.On Duet I have + brown cable and - blue cable.
-
Can confirm the wrong in the schematics now, just measured it and power is wrong in the Duet schematic.

I have M574 X1 Y1 Z1 S0
Had a M558 line active and put a rem in the front now, is that correct to rem that line and use the above for open and low homing?
If so I will test this now. -

Okay I have X homing as it should!
Y is homing in the wrong direction even though I did set it to low. Tried o change it to high incase there was a bug or something but it didnt work… It however stops if I put a screwdriver on the sensor so the sensor is communicating to the board correctly.. Its just the motor homing in the wrong direction despite being configurated as below.

Y homing sorted out… works.
Now trying to fix Z

I would like to see how a Homez.g for a carthesian without probe looks like… Mine has a probe setting. Can anyone post one?

Did you read these yet
https://duet3d.com/wiki/Configuring_RepRapFirmware_for_a_Cartesian_printer#Homing_files
If you home Z using a microswitch instead, then you can use a pattern similar to homex,g and homey.g. However, if you use a low-end homing switch that triggers a little before Z=0, then you can't use M208 to define the homing position, because it would prevent you moving below the trigger height. You can use a G92 command after homing instead. Here is an example, for the case where you have a low-end homing switch that triggers at Z=0.3mm:
G91 ; relative mode
G1 Z4 F200 ; raise head 4mm to ensure it is above the switch trigger height
G90 ; back to absolute mode
G1 X0 Y0 F2000 ; put head wherever you want it to be when you home Z (omit this line if it doesn't matter)
G91 ; relative mode
G1 Z-200 S1 F100 ; move Z down until the switch triggers
G90 ; back to absolute mode
G92 Z0.3 ; tell the firmware that we are at Z=0.3mm -
Seems like the configurator is putting out the wrong content, it does put out probe in homez even if probe was deselected.
Will read that link thanks, have a homez based on Y content now as a start and it works…
Just trying to understand how the files are built up and relates. -
I think I have it all figured out now.
Thanks for any assistance given.
Im sure I will find something more to ask about within short. -
Just like to remind DC42 to look at the error of the Duet 3.3v endstops signal and ground is not correct on schematic.. they need to switch place.
Configurator outputs probe even if probe in homez was deselected.

Please provide a link to the particular diagram that you believe is wrong, and confirm whether you have a blue production board or a white pre-production board.
Configurator outputs probe even if probe in homez was deselected.
Thanks for that report. I'll check it out.

My mistake, too tired when I did it. Schematic is ok.

What is the status of rempping limits switche?
Asking as I'm using the last 2 drivers on Duex5 for my Z-axis motors. I have a limit-switch for each of these motors I want to use to sync the motors.
But either the remapping doesn't work, or i'm doing something wrong?
I tried defining the "old" Z as Extruder, just to see if that would change anything, but it didn'tRight now the Z-endstop is just telling me it is triggered.
