Error: Pin 'exp.heater3' is not free (SOLVED)
-
Hi there
When I do things in laser mode I activate it by this command:
M452 C"!exp.heater3" R255 S1 F2000 ;
and when I'm finished I go back to normal mode with this command:
M451
But then I want to reconfigure my exp.heater3 pin to P0:
M950 P0 C"!exp.heater3" Q1000
But that gets denied with this error message:
Error: Pin 'exp.heater3' is not free
What is the correct way to free exp.heater3 after having it used in laser mode?

are you on firmware version 3.2?
post your config and config overwrite.

You can try
M452 C"nil"
I'm not sure that it will work though. We don't expect users to change the laser pin to be something else, because the laser is presumably still connected.

Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.23Should probably update to the full 3.2.2 release.

Yes, but I am currently in a project where I heavily rely on my duets functionality. The nightmare update from FW V 2. to 3.x deters me from doing another update right now.

@pauledd Well now that you're on RRF3 the pain should be behind you.
