RE: No movement when position command sent without G0/G1
@dc42
Thanks! I am currently in CNC mode. Tried with a tool selected and no tools selected which results in the same "check mark X###" making it seem like it works. -
No movement when position command sent without G0/G1
Currently running dsf 3.2.2
Is anyone else having issues with no movements taking place when a G0/G1 command is left out? (G1 command was used in the previous line)
I remember this working with past versions but can't seem to get it working. For example a code would be:
G1 X250
X300The carriage would move to X250, but then no movement taking place after. I get a "check mark" X300 in the console but there's no physical movement or position update in the controller...

IDEX/Z - Tool change (Separate print and mill heads)
Hi all. I'm new to the forum so please forgive me if some of my questions have been answered or if I am going about posting wrong.
Machine summary: Currently utilizing a duet 3 to control a cartesian style build with 2 independent X carriages that have independent Z axis. One Carriage houses a router/mill and the other has a printing head. Planning to use the mill to clean up prints.
Please see my config and tool change macros for additional information.
config.g homeall.g tfree0.g tfree1.g tpre0.g tpre1.g
My problem lies with switching between tools and homing macros. As of now I am capable of using the mill head and print head independently with XYZ inputs (I switch drive mapping with tool change macros while ensuring the locations are preserved by performing a "park" cycle, and using G92 to write the known locations when switching from tool to tool).
My main problems at this point are when I switch to T1 (mill) and perform a homeall, the system hangs up on the tool change (I have switch to T0 as my first command so that the correct steppers and end stops are being controlled). I tried implementing M116 in the thoughts that the switch between tools wasn't happening fast enough...
My next issue is that since T0 is a print head, I would like the system to be in FFF print mode when in use; however, when in print mode my homeall function falls apart and the T0 Z axis plunges into the table rather than the lift until end stop is hit (like it does in CNC mode).
I am going about it this way as I intend on using Fusion 360 to post the code, however it only lets me utilize XYZ axis (hence the need for remaps when switching between mill and print)
