Dual Y axis endstop Configuration
-
I have just bought a duet wifi + duex5 and in the process of configuring the motors on a custom built 3d printer. I have connected one Y endstop to the normal Y endstop on the duet2 wifi board and the other to the E2 endstop on the duex5. However, only the endstop connected to the duet 2 wifi mainboard triggers when contacted. How do I get both Y enstops to trigger? Here is an overview of my current motor & endstop settings?

as far as i know the v2 Firmware does not support endstop remapping.
you need the v3 firmware for it to work.but for normal operation you dont need max and min endstops at the same time.

With RepRapFirmware 2, in order to support multiple motors with independent endstop switches on an axis, you need to remap one of the motors to a temporary additional axis while homing. See https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Guide/Independent+Z+motors+and+endstop+switches/18?lang=en.
RepRapFirmware 3 supports this arrangement in a simpler way, you just declare the additional endstop switches using M574.

I currently have reprapfirmware 2.03 installed (just upgraded yesterday). I tried searching for the latest version and I keep getting redirected to v2.03. Is this what you are referring to as "v3 firmware"? If so, I will use option 2 (M574) command.

its currently in development.
