I think it's the curly quotes. Note the difference between

Are you using a mac by chance?

@Phaedrux no, but it’s probably due to teamviewer with iphone issue. That’s how i communicate with it while away

M567 P4 E1:1:0:0That figures. The M563 command that creates tool 4 is this:
M563 P4 S"DITTOFront" D0:1 H1:2 X0:5 F0:1 ; Tool 2 uses extruders 1 and 2, hotend heaters 1 and 2, maps X to X and U, uses tool fans 4 and 5
Tool 4 uses two extruder drives, so it expect two E values, not four.

Dc42, thank you. Yes, those tools... don’t even have tfree, tpost, etc files . WIP.
while this obviously causes something while printing - using tools, when they will be configured...why would it cause stepper motors 5&6 (first motors on duex and their endstops) to “stutter” occasionaly on homing Z ?
Before rewiring, when those stepper drivers were mapped for X carriages for tools T1 and T2, those axes stuttered mid print.
It was hard to see. Was seen on print once you know what too look...
After rewiring, using and mapping those motors to Z, it’s easier to reproduce and hopefully debug -

I don't think it's related. I'm still looking through your other files.

So your package of config files currently has the A axis configured as the second Z axis. Are you wanting to keep it this way for independent jogging? If it's just for homing it would be better to remove it entirely.
Here's a modified config.g with the recommended changes (removes A axis entirely, uses x16 microstepping with interpolation across the board, and changes the Z endstops to use both switches for homing/leveling, and fixes that error in M567.)

; homez.g ; called to home the Z axis G91 ; relative positioning G1 Z-405 F900 H1
Can you give those a try? Send M98 P"config.g" first just to check for any syntax errors I may have inadvertently introduced.
Also, just a note for all of your homing files: Only use H2 modifier when you want to move an axis that isn't already homed. Using it otherwise can hide errors because it will allow an axis to move when it isn't homed.
example: G1 U-2 F600 H2 ; go back a few mm
That move is supposed to happen after the axis has been homed, so the H2 shouldn't be needed. If there was a failure to home the H2 would hide that failure and force movement anyway.
Normally it's just used to life the Z axis slightly before move the XY axis for clearance.
-
@Phaedrux thank you.
tried proposed config. nothing new. same results.
it homes all the first time.
but then when i call to homeall again, it fails to home. It either does not move left or right Z motor, or it fails to trigger the endstop. -
correction, as i can't see both endstop states i sent home all from phone and monitored Endstops triggered from Settings>machine specific on the screen.
Ran homeall until it fails to home correctly.It shows endstop as triggered but motor (in this case left Z) keeps grinding and does not stop. It also does this in it's own random pattern on the right side.
Endstops are OMRON optical endstops, fed by 5V from the CONN_SD.
I set the endstops voltage jumper select on the Duex5 to 5V. The endstops on duex are now wired and fed from their designated pins. Same results no matter how i connect them. No matter what the endstop voltage jumper position is. -
after failed homing:
as said, on failed Z homing, while motors grinding and the endstop for Z showed as triggered. I hit emergency stop, board restarts. Endstop for Z shows as not triggered -
Any i2c errors being reported in M122 when it fails to home?
-
@jay_s_uk when i hit homeall, and again until it fails (it's like a 3rd or fourth attempt) it grinds until i hit emergency stop.

;Mapping drives M584 X0 Y2 Z5:6 U1 V3 W4 ; Extruder mapping M584 E7:8:9:10 ; Extruder mapping
I think we've defined too many drivers, haven't we?
5 on the duet, 5 on the duex. 0-9 for 10 total, Driver10 doesn't exist.So you have both Z motors and 3 extruders on the Duex? And XYUVW on the Duet?
When you test the endstops individually and check them with M119 they all work and match the expected axis?
-
Yes @Phaedrux, all endstops work at mapped axis.
It has 11 motors, so there is motor 10 since you count from 0. not sure how would i count and set them otherwise?
(5) XYUVW is on duet
(2) Z1 and Z2 are on duex
(3) Then there are 3 extruders at motors 7,8,9
(1) and the 4th extruder is external wired to CONN_LCD5+2+3+1=11

I didn't see you you were using an external driver as well.
-
Does homeZ by itself work? G28 Z
-
@Phaedrux yes. But with occasional “glitching” as described.
-
One thing I can think of to help narrow down the issue is to change over the motor mappings to have the Z motors on the Duet and move 2 of the carriages over to the Duex. If the problem homing moves to the motors on the Duex then we can be reasonably certain it's a comms issue between the duex and duet.
