@dc42 So I fixed it so now tool 0 is set to the same temperature, but still no dice.

I looked at the files with the 0 the end of name, and they are all empty. I'm not aware of any for tool 1. Also FYI the dual extrusion system uses only one hot end/nozzle.

Here is the Cura tool change code:

G91 ; relative positioning

G1 E-20 F3000 ; 50mm/s retract
G4 P2500 ; 2.5s cooling period
G1 E-140 F3000 ; 50mm/s long retract

G92 E0

G1 E50 F1500 ; 25mm/s feed

I can also tell you that the system I use only has one hot end. Also it appears to extrude fine with each extruder when not in a print.

Hello, I recently upgraded my machine to the Prometheus dual extrusion system. I'm currently stuck. I cannot get dual extrusion to work properly. The machine worked properly when using only one filament. When attempting dual extrusion test prints, the machine will stop and stay in one spot when the filament is supposed to switch. The machine will then retract the filament and extrude the other filament slightly only to retract it again. It will stay in the same spot and do this until I manually stop the print. I am using Cura to slice. I know this is vague, but I'm not sure what details would be helpful for me to provide.

I appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Ian

I found the problem, I had G32 in the bed.g instead of G29. Thank you for the help

Hello, I recently changed my method of homing my z axis to use my bed probe. I also probe the bed after homing the Z axis. I used to be successful in my meshgrid compensation, but now I experience problems.Now whenever I run G32 after homing, I get:

Error: Push(): stack overflow!

and sometimes

Error: Max open file count exceeded

I'm running the latest firmware and would appreciate any help on this issue.
Thanks,
Ian

I used to run my printer without an expansion board, and had the bltouch working properly. I have recently installed the duex 5 expansion board and connect the bltouch to the corresponding pwm port. Now when I run the same commands as before, I do not get any reaction from the probe. It is possible that I have it plugged into the wrong pwm port. I also wouldn't be surprised if there was an error in my configuration. FYI I have no heaters plugged into the duex.
Thanks for any help,
Ian

ok so everything is now unplugged, completely, Now the 3.3v led is green and it is communicating with pronterface. Thank you very much. My guess is that I had an endstop plugged in improperly and it was shorting out the 3v rail. Does that seem about right?

ok when I plug in only the USB, i get a 5v light and the light between the reset button and the USB socket. Is there some jumper or something that I need to move to get it to work? And yes I unplugged the connections to the main board.

I have been using my duet wifi for a few months now and it has worked well. I recently tried to setup the duex5 with my printer, but during the process, I made some mistake. I am not sure where I went wrong, but now my board isn't functioning properly. I may have pressed the erase button during the process, I am not sure. It is possible i have messed up in some other way. I have tried to reflash the board with Sa-mba, but I can't even get the Bossa port to show up in device manager. I also had checked for the other comm port to connect through pronterface, and that wouldn't appear either. I tried a different usb cable.

I apologize for the vagary of this post, but I'm honestly not sure where I went wrong.

Thanks,
Ian

http://m.ebay.com/itm/3D-Printer-Kossel-Mini-Delta-Reprap-Aluminum-Slide-Slider-Pulley-SET-OF-3-PCS-/111949748948?nav=SEARCH these are good but I don't think they are mgn12

It looks like it could be an overextrusion issue. I would calibrate the extruder and maybe up your motor currents if you hear or see the xy motors skipping. Zwobble is also another likely problem. I would look up your printer and z wobble fixes and check them out.

Hope this helps

Ok Removing many comments in homeall.g fixed the problem… Thank you guys for the help
@dc42 I don't have it but more than 1/2 of the whole file was comments.

There are some parts on eBay that are cast aluminum that should work well for a kossel. They also have arms and an end effector. Not bad IMO

@dc42 I added M82 to the start gcode and M563 P0 D4 H1 but there was no difference.

@deckingman The reprap option says marlin and sprinter in parenthesis in cura

Ok the console didn't show any errors, so here are the 1st 50 lines

Hey guys, I just recently got my duet wifi board and got my printer configured with it, but I am having a problem with printing through the web interface. I use cura as my slicer and save the gcode files and upload them to print. When I tell the web interface to print the files, it starts to heat up the hotend to the desired temperature but stops after it reaches that temperature and says the print is finished.

I am using firmware 1.18.1, wifi server 1.03(ch fork), and web interface 1.15a. I feel like i might be using the wrong version of one of these.

I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks.
