Issues setting up duet wifi with dual x axis motors and endstops

SUCCESS!!!!! WOOHOOO.....
finally.... everything as far as the x axis is concerned is working as it should now. Thank you so much everyone. now i feel safe enough to install the cross beams to physically connect the two vertical posts.
I did get the errors you were mentioning as well... i can slow them down or up the current i suppose but i already had them to 1000 mah if i recall... what would you suggest for a max for nema 17s on lead screws... with two motors on the x it should be able to move x around without breaking a sweat... lol

It's recommended to target 70-85% of max rated motor current. You can go as high as 100% of rated but the motors will get quite hot.

@wingtip Are you running a 24V PSU? Mine is on 12V, but 24V will more than likely help you achieve higher speeds. See https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Choosing_and_connecting_stepper_motors#Section_How_to_work_out_the_power_supply_voltage_you_need

wow thats a lot of math. Im not trying to calculate a launch window and trajectory to mars..... lol.. That page talks about 150mm/s on 12v and mine is on 12v, 1000amp supply... dude im used to printing at a max of 40mm /s right now... if i got 80mm/s and kept accuracy i'd pee my pants with excitement....
If you guys want to see what im working on that requires a larger printer than my FT5..take a peek here... this is a collection of photos over the past several years of designing and redesigning, printing, redesigning, re printing, tired of paying others to print then build my own printer, then start building my big printer lol

You're making a model of Wet Nellie!?

@Phaedrux not just a model a functional model...

@wingtip I saw that your profile image was the James Bond Lotus Esprit sub, but didn't realise you were making one!

Looking good. Keep us posted on your progress. And feel free to ask for any help as you go.

@wingtip I'm fighting the same issues with dual X and dual Y motors. Can you post your final config.g and homeall.g (or homex.g)? Might be able to figure out my problem without needing to make a new post.
Thanks.
