I may be doing something wrong but when I used the configurator to set up my config files for a Voron 2.4r2 I just built I noticed that the only way to add stepper drivers was to add them as Extruders. It was not a big deal, I just modified the config.g file after it was created by the configurator to include the missing drivers. However, since many printers today have multiple Z steppers it might be worth considering adding the option to add more Z drivers in the configurator. It is a great tool and I use it frequently and I understand it is designed to be a starting point only. Thanks for considering this.

@fcwilt I have resolved the issue. Thanks for your help. Yes, it does mean that those three options are about all there is. In fact, I started at the switch and checked continuity at all points where a break could occur all the way back to the JST connector on the board. They all passed. So, I took the pins out of the JST connector and checked those, they were fine. When I put it back together and connected it to the board, it started working. It appears the problem was the pins in the connector were not making a connection (which makes no sense but that is what is seems to have been).

@sputnikoc3d Thanks for the help. I ordered a new Duet 2 WiFi yesterday to get this machine up and running and it has already shipped. I also ordered a new Prusa XL... unfortunately that wont ship until who knows when.... but if I ever get it it will replace this machine. Thanks to Phaedrux, Siam, and yourself for trying to help.

@phaedrux Thank You that is exactly what I needed to know. Appreciate the help.

@jay_s_uk Thank you. That makes sense. I am so used to not thinking about the SD card capturing the upload from DWC that this confused me for a bit.

@jadoglio I installed the new board...big surprise everything works now. Thanks again for trying to help.

@jay_s_uk OK thanks. I didn't realize that. I will give it a try. I am doing a PID Autotune on the bed right now as I just replaced that as well. Once it is done I will try your suggestion.

@Phaedrux

Sorry, now it is really idiot/rookie confession time. I checked the things you suggested and found no obvious issues. However, when taking pictures I did notice something that is about as rookie a mistake as is possible that I had completely overlooked. As Occam once said... the simplest solution is probably the best/right one. The 10A fuse blew. When I replaced it all began to work as expected.

I curious what that fuse does as everything worked generally as it should but it did not work right. I assume that it has something to do with the 24v system but is there more to it than that?

Sorry for wasting your time and thanks. Jim

@oliof

Thanks, I figured it out. I was using M564 H0 and using DWC to check movements but somehow it was messing things up. When I stopped using it and went to the procedure you provided everything began to behave as it should.

@JADoglio Thanks You very much. I don't care how many hours I spend printing, building printers, and upgrading there is always something new to learn and thankfully someone out there to teach it.

@JADoglio I tried the 401/402 option first since it seemed simpler than creating another tool which I suspect would have also worked. This option worked as expected. Problem solved, Thanks
