Pause Printing for Nut/Magnet insert
-
I know this has to be here someplace but the search results are killing me.
I am using an old version of S3d 4.0.10 and I know I can put something like this in the post processing (found this in a factory file I think that worked with marlin) {REPLACE "\n; layer 28, Z = " "; layer 3\nG91\nG0 Z50\nG90\nM84 S0\nM0\nG92 E0\n; layer 28"} But not sure..
How do I do this with Reprep .. Also will need to know now to start it.. Sorry if this is simple and documented but I have not found it yet.

Is this what you are looking for ? https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/Reference/Gcodes#m226-synchronous-pause

@deckingman No, I am looking for the string to enter in the post processing field of the Slicer to stop the printer, move the print head out of the way and wait till I tell it to start again. During that time I can insert nuts or magnets into the part and then resume the printing to completion. I believe the string I put above worked with marlin but that was back in 2021 before I installed the Duet. When I use the above it stops and moves out of the way but the pause button is no highlighted so be able to resume as it was with the old board and the Octoprint via USB. I can plug in my USB cable and use octoprint for this print if there is no way to do it from the duet web interface.

@deckingman My apologies, that was exactly what I needed, but took a bit more searching and test print to figure out how to implement it
In the S3D post processing box
{REPLACE "; layer 29" "M226/n; layer 29"}
Caveat is that the layer number must specify the layer to stop before it prints.. i.e. to stop after Layer 28 you have to enter 29..
Print head move to park as if you hit pause on the gui and once you are ready, hit resume. .. for those who come later looking for the same thing
Thanks!
