Delete declared tools

hauschka

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to delete declared tools (and fans, heaters, thermistors,...).

Sceanrio: I have declared 2 tools, but want to replace them with new toolheads.
Solution:

"Delete" existing tools
Declare new heads.

Right now, i can only do this by resetting the machine. Is there a gcode that I'm missing to delete/undeclare tools, fans heaters, thermistors etc? or is a soft reset the only way to do so?

@hauschka you can nil pin names etc, but editing the config and then restarting is the cleanest method. any issues with rebooting the machine?

@hauschka you can delete a tool using M563 P# H-1 D-1 where # is the tool number.

You can delete a heater or fan by sending a new M950 command for it with pin name "nil".

I see, thank you very much for the insights!

@hauschka Alternatively, if you are likely to switch back and forth, you could create two (or more) configuration files and switch between them. Check out M505 https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/Reference/Gcodes#m505-set-configuration-file-folder
