extruder works but print not starting

Can you post the first 50 or so lines of a gcode file you're trying to print?
Can you also post your config.g?

It would appear that you are missing a tool select command anywhere. Without it, the hotend won't be enabled. Try adding T0 to the end of your config.g to enable it at startup. And add T0 to your Cura start gcode. You should probably also change Cura to use RepRap flavour gcode. I think if you do that it will add the tool selection itself when it sends the temp commands.

Typically Fan0 would be used as the part cooling fan and Fan1 for the hotend. Fan2 possibly for cooling the duet.
For example, here is how I have it configured.

@phaedrux many thanks
I will do these modifications and check -
I think the problem is with remapping the Extruder to driver "6" (E3) on duex2
but when reconfigure it again to driver"3" it works but the independent Z homing macro not working!
the macro was working fine when i map drivers 2,3,4 and 5 to Z with virtual axis U,V and W.
any help please how to sort our this issue?Thanks,

Is your config.g file the same as in your post of 15 August?
-
Did you make sure that Tool 0 is selected, either in your slicer start GCode or before you start a print?

I am wondering whether the stepper driver 6 output could be faulty. Can you try driver 7 instead, if it is a DueX5 not a DueX2? Alternatively, test driver 6 by e.g. connecting the X motor to it and using X6 in the M584 command instead of X0.
-
Unfortunately i have duex2 the driver is working when assigned to stepmotor not extruder.
May be if i ordered duex5 would be a solution or this may be bug with the firmware? -
No i don't think it's a firmware bug. Please try removing E6 from your M584 command and changing X0 to X6 in it, and with the Duet powered down move the X motor connector to the E3 connector on the DueX2. Then power up and test the X axis. That will show whether the E3 driver (driver 6) is working correctly.
-
Hi Dave , I remapped the driver 6 to x and it is working now.
i will check the printing today.
I have another question I am testing PNP sensor LJ12A3-4-Z/BY and i did the static testing and it give me 1000 in in DWC.

@marine85 said in extruder works but print not starting:
I have another question I am testing PNP sensor LJ12A3-4-Z/BY and i did the static testing and it give me 1000 in in DWC.
Is the reading 1000 when the sensor is close to the bed and triggered, or when it is far from the bed and not triggered?
-
Reading 1000 when triggered and sensor indicator led on
-
You need to use different commands in homez.g to home Z using a Z probe. See https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/ConfiguringRepRapFirmwareCartesianPrinter#Section_Homing_Z.
-
when i use this homez.g
G91 ; relative mode

G90 ; back to absolute mode
G1 X100 Y100 S2 F2000 ; put head over the centre of the bed, or wherever you want to probe
G30 ; lower head, stop when probe triggered and set Z to trigger heightx and Y axis only moves to 100,100 and Z not moving up or down and reading Z 4.0 and when i home z again z value increase by 4 becoming 8,12,etc..
the sensor reading is 0 when not triggered and 1000 when triggered .I tried to print but when heating is ready and homing x and Y showing this message and aborting the print
Error: G0/G1: insufficient axes homed
Cancelled printing file panal.gcode, print time was 0h 1m
help please with this issue ? -
Please try sending these commands from the console and see whether you get the correct 4mm of Z movement.
