@dc42
the first option looks the most interesting. This way I can get 2 more spare drivers for future upgrades!
Do you have wiring diagram for parallel stepper connection?
Should steppers wire length be the same? or 500mm difference in wires lengths does not effect synchronies of motor movements?

@phaedrux
Yes, this drivers spread due to wiring. I have 4 NEMA23 for Y (2 motors move one belt for left and right rail), 2 Nema17 34mm with lead screw for Z, 2 NEMA17 20mm for X.
Cartesian kinematic. Dual Y axis rails (its actually dual 16mm shafts on both sides of printer) moving two Z rails, which hold X axis.

For now sensorless homing on X and sensorless on Z works find.

Endstops on Y also work, but not independently for two Y rails. if the axis is slightly shifted (I specifically moved one rail by 10 mm relative to the second), the homing is triggered when the first rail touches the endstop. And printer remains shifted Y axis by 10 mm.
If I disconnect 2 motors
(M584 X0.2:1.2 Y0.3:1.0 Z0.1:1.1 instead of M584 X0.2:1.2 Y0.0:0.3:0.4:1.0 Z0.1:1.1 ),
then the independent homing works as it should, both rails go to the endstop.
So, I want to achieve independent homing for two Y axis rails with four motors (2 motors for each rail)

@phaedrux
Yes, S4 works well on Z - 2 motors on Z stopped individually. But for Y axis I use 2 optical endstop and so my only choice M574 S1
But because of 4 motors on Y, left and right rail do not stoped individually

Stall homing resolved.
But I cant get Y to home properly. I add 2 endstop for each of Y rails and everything work great if I use only 2 Y motors, one for left rail and one for right rail. But my setup have two Y motors on both rails (4 total for Y).
M584 X0.2:1.2 Y0.0:0.3:0.4:1.0 Z0.1:1.1 ; set drive mapping
In this case first homing stops when the first endstop is triggered.
@dc42
Is it possible to independently homing the right and left rails of the Y axis if there are 2 motors on right rail and 2 motors on left rail of Y axis?

@fcwilt
Heavy X axis with Z axis mounted on it.
taking into account the low cost of the steppers, and 6+3 driver on Duet3 + 3HC I decide to put 2 motors for 1 belt and thereby reduce the backlash and increase the torque. Which is especially important for high accelerations of a heavy head. And I plan to put a spindle in addition to the print head to be able to finish the surface after printing and drilling holes

@o_lampe
in this case endstop detection will be considered at a stall detection from the first of the two motors if they do not stall simultaneously? Or do both motors need stall detection to trigger the endstop?

@phaedrux any idea if sensorless homing should use both motors pulling one belt or just one of them?

I probably can place endstops for the Y axis. But for X and Z it will be almost impossible.
For sensorless homing should I use both motors pulling one belt or just one of them?

Hello
I building a laser engraver with Duet3 + Duet 3 Expansion board 3HC
I have 2 motors on X (both motors moves one X belt), 4 Motors on Y (two motors moves left Y belt, two motors moves right Y belt) and 2 on Z (8mm lead screw).
Can I use sensorless homing in case of 2 motor moving same belt?
what will the Homeall file look like in this case?
Do I need to change motors mapping?

Hello
I try to connect 3 wire FAN BLOWER 35X10MM 12VDC WIRE (Delta Electronics BFB03512HHA-AF00) to Out 1 of Toolboard.
Fan start spinning at the power up and continues to spin at a constant speed regardless of the settings and commands M106 and M107.
Wires connected: Black to GND, Red to +12V, Blue to out1

; Fans
M950 F0 C"20.out1" Q1000 ; create fan 0 part cooling on pin 20.out1 and set its frequency
M106 P0 S0 ; set fan 0 value. Thermostatic control is turned off
M950 F1 C"20.out2" Q500 ; create fan 1 heatsink on pin 20.out2 and set its frequency
M106 P1 S0 H1 T45 ; set fan 1 value. Thermostatic control is turned on 45C

I tried several Q parameters. H-1 at M106 also didn't help.

any ideas that I messed up?

@oozeBot
Thank you! It performs self test now. 10 times (10 deploys and 10 retracts)

@dc42
@oozeBot
I add those 3 lines in my config file

M280 P0 S60 ; BLtouch - toggle switch mode
G4 P1000 ; wait 1 second
M280 P0 S120 ; BLtouch toggle self-test

, but BL-touch still does not perform self test at startup. M401 and M402 works
There exactly I should put these lines? Just before ; Z-Probe ?
Or at the top or bottom?
And do I need any modifications to those codes since I use Toolboard with CAN address 20, not 121?

@dc42

https://www.printedsolid.com all 3 of them

@dc42

as a result of frequent connections and disconnections, I have already broken 2 CAN connectors for the Toolboard . Tell me please what kind of connector it is, jst zh 4 pin 1.5 mm connector or some other?
And do you have a suggestion where I can buy it? I didn't find any similar connectors at filastruder and printedsolid
Thank you

@dc42 said in Multiple Errors Duet3:

IR sensor

I would love to try using IR sensor but I have already designed and print effector for BL-touch and already bought 3 of them.
Wait for BL-touch 3.1 arrive to you and I hope you can find a reason why all 3 sensors don't work with the ToolBoard correctly

@CaLviNx
What would be a better alternative to BL-touch?

@dc42
I use 24 Volt through Tool Distribution Board, the same voltage as for Duet3.

Can you please send to me foto of your Toolboard with BL-touch connected and config settings? I want to double-check if I miss something

Can you give me your address (or email it to komkovdy at gmail) so I can check shipping cost and delivery time.
