If you only want to use it as a loader but not during normal operation you could create it as an extruder and assign it to a tool to advance and retract the filament as needed and then reconfigure your tool as per normal printing when done.

Perfect, thanks - will give it a try 🙂

I looked through all the documentation but must have missed that nugget of a link you posted

@dc42 and @deckingman Massive thank you for your help, I swapped the endstop over to the E0 endstop and it now works.

👍 Glad you are sorted.

@macwolf that looks OK to me.

@mark said in Duex5 - 5v for relay:

I am looking to switch a relay (https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3-3V-5V-16A-Relay-Module-for-Arduino-Nano-Due-Raspberry-Pi-ESP8266-Optocoupler/272377230993?epid=12021202256&hash=item3f6af2b691:g:bB0AAOSwLF1X2m2p) which will turn my Bed heater PSU on and off in G-code at the start and end of a print

Can I use the "PWM FANS(1.5A Max)" output on the Duex5 to switch the reply? The relay require 5v, do I just have to move the "V Fan Jumper select" to 5v? do i need to supply 5v to the board somewhere or will it get the 5v from the 12v input What would be the G-code to turn on/off the fan?

Many Thanks,

Mark

Check that your relay module has an optically isolated input. Is it does then that will work, alternatively connect it between +5V and the FAN- pin, then you can set VFAN to whatever is right for your fans. Or connect the relay module input with a series resistor to the Fan output, then you can keep VFAN at 12V or 24V.
