Dual extruder 2 in 1 out issue
-
I am having problems getting my dual extruder working with any of the 1.20 firmware settings the tool change seems to be working, but unable to get the current set for the tool 1 if I use M906 E1050:1050 in the code they both stop working but E1050 only tool 0 works and the second goes way to fast. Even if I change M83 to M82 same results. Any ideas apparently I am missing something my current config.g below.

I can't think why changing the motor current should completely stop the extruder from working. The only thing that leaps out is that in the commented out line you have M906 X Y Z E but you've only set it for one extruder which may explain why only one extruder works. In the uncommented line you have the order as M906 X Y E:E Z. I wouldn't have expected the order to be critical but you could try M906 X800 Y800 Z1200 E1050:1050. BTW, 1,050 mA is a strange number to use. How did you arrive at it and why do you have a higher motor current setting for the extruders compared to the X and Y axes?
