Thank you for your help. I think I have it working. Yes, the F7 was already defined as a fan and that stopped the fan. The servo did work on the endstop pin, but the fan stopped. What I did in the end was:
M950 S0 C"duex.pwm5" ; assign GPIO port 0 to pwm5 on expansion board, servo mode
and use:
M280 P0 S80 ; set 80deg servo position on GPIO port 0
to move the servo. This is all very new to me, thank you for your help.
@deckingman How do you handle different materials (temperatures)? Thank you for explaining how cura is handling temperature commands.
I had this behaviour, but I tracked it down to a faulty network connection on my Deut2. I was looking at my config.g, and lost connectivity temporarily. However the config.g file was now 0K in size. I noticed that whenever my network dropped, it zeroed the file I had open in the editor. I used the config.bak file to get me close to where I was earlier. Now that the network issue has been fixed, all has been good. Thanks for the great support guys.
Thank you very much for taking the time to explain that. This is very useful. I have set my initial temperatures in the config.g file. Once again, thank you for your time.

@deckingman Here are my tool changing configs.
Cura likes to level the bed with a tool attached, and the toolchanger probes the bed without a tool. Anyway, the heater fault only happens with Cura, and not SuperSlicer.

@deckingman No problem. This is the cura version. https://www.dropbox.com/s/gc7tmprbw0pgb2q/CFFFP_xyzCalibration_cube.gcode?dl=0
and the superslicer version. https://www.dropbox.com/s/c3r9vwbow25h1om/xyzCalibration_cube.gcode?dl=0
This is a test print using Tool 2 with 0.6 nozzle.
@dc42 I get them. I have a E3D toolchanger / duet 2 / RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet version 3.4.1 (2022-06-01 21:05:28) running on Duet Ethernet 1.02 or later + DueX5v0.11.
I seem to get this issue more often when I slice with Cura, less with SuperSlicer. This is strange, but if I heat the extruder up via console to the temp I am going to use (and bed), then submit the job, the issue doesn't happen as often.
I am printing now, but yesterday the same sliced file would not print, mid way into the print I got the heater issue. I "preheated" the extruder and let it set for several min, then committed the job and it's working. This job was sliced with Cura. It's strange, I can't explain it, but it is repeatable.
Regards,
Cheers guys. I installed a replacement Duex5 board. All working nicely now. I have a question. Is there firmware I have to worry about on the extension board, or is it just that, an extension to the DUET 2 board and firmware is installed there.
@phaedrux Yes. The same issue. I was asked to send my details to the warranty team. Thank you for following up.
Regards,
@t3p3tony I completed this task earlier on 4 April. There was no difference with the servos, but the network does not disconnect and reconnect with a M122. I still can't get Ports PWM5 and PWM5 to function.
