RE: adding multiple z endstops
@Phaedrux yeah I've seen that. I have a creativity elf printer with 2 lead screws that each have an endstop. I was trying to get both of the endstops to work. so far I have the both motors moving independently but only one endstop is recognized.

RE: adding multiple z endstops
@Phaedrux I made the changes you suggested. thank you. Any idea on how to get both endstops to work? right now if I trigger the endstop that is recognized both motors stop.

adding multiple z endstops
Hey guys, I have 2 endstop questions.
corexy creativity elf printer
dual lead screw with endstops
mellow super 8 board
RRF3-
I have a dual lead screw corexy 3d printer that uses endstops and so far only one works. I looked up M574 and tried the example for using independent endstop switches for z axis but I must be missing something. when I run M119 one endstop is recognized but the other shows as "z probe: at min stop"
I added M569 and mapped the second Z motor with M584 -
my y endstop doesnt trigger very fast and the gantry crashes into it and the motors skip for half a second. How do I get it to trigger faster?

RE: extruder e steps doubled
I finally figured it out. The grub screw on my bondtech extruder was loose. The stepper motor would spin shaft assembly but the drive gear would only turn sporadically. I put some locktite on the grubscrew, put it all back together and its working great and the E steps are the same as before! For future reference if you see the large gear spinning on the shaft assembly and are getting inconsistent sporadic extrusion check to see if a screw is loose.

RE: extruder e steps doubled
Yea, it's weird. Both motors are 0.9 deg. Per Bondtech's website a 1.7 deg stepper motor should be around 415 steps/mm. I was at 840 for the old slimline motor which is a 0.9 deg stepper motor. That makes sense.
Here is my process:
-using PETG
-set my extruder temp to 235°C
-measured 100mm of filament and marked it
-On the duet WiFi I opened the extrusion menu
-selected 100mm
-selected 5mm/sec
-selected extrude
-only 50mm was extruded
-doubled the value and iterated until I was able to extrude 100mmThe final e step value was 1560.
Other than the fact that it's weird and I want to figure out WHY this is happening is there any negative impact to having the steps so high?

extruder e steps doubled
I just changed extruder motors and my e steps doubled. Any ideas why that happened? Does it even matter?
Here is my setup.
firmware: Duet WiFi 1.0 or 1.01
Firmware version: 2.02(RTOS) (2018-12-24b1)
WiFi Server Version 1.23
Web interface Version 1.22.6Old motor: E3D Slimline stepper motor (0.9 deg)
Bondtech BMG extruder
Microstepping 16x
e steps 840
current 1400New motor: LDO pancake motor part number LDO-42STH25-140MAC (0.9 deg)
Bondtech BMG extruder
microstepping 16x
e steps 1560
current 1200I didn't change the wiring.
It should have been a drop in replacement. I'm stumped why I needed to almost double my e steps.
here is some of the config file
; Axis and motor configuration
M350 X16 Y16 Z16 E16 I1 ; Configure microstepping with interpolation
M92 X80 Y80 Z3230 ; Set steps per mm
M92 E1560 ; Set extruder steps/mm

RE: origin inverts when trying to print twice in a row
Ok lets try this again. I pressed submit and walked away only to find out that my session had timed out and never sent my reply.
Phaedrux, I think you figured it out. I made the changes that you suggested and so far its working great! thank you! It is much better now that I don't need to power cycle all of the time which I am assuming isn't that great for the duet board.
Alex.cr and bearer, Thank you for the responses as well. I did make the change to my start code (just G28) and cleaning them up more is on my to do list.
Alex, I'm not sure how the end code can cause my printer to crash. I have the bed lower after it prints then move to the origin. I'm a novice at programming though so maybe I'm not seeing what you are seeing. could you elaborate a bit more on that?
dc42 I made the change Phaedrux recommended before trying the M579. So far its working but I have to test it some more to make sure. Should I still try the M579? What will it do? Does that invert the origin?
Thanks everyone for the responses. If I have more problems I'll post again.
