Help me fix my start Gcode.

Hello, I'm sure this question has been answered a million times, but I don't want to change my startup gcode to something all new.

So I need help fixing mine, It should be a pretty simple fix but I can't get it.

I have a Flashforge Creator Pro Dual nozzle
Everything works fine except for waiting for temperature for both Bed and Nozzle.
At the current moment it will wait for bed temp only and then start printing without waiting for the nozzle also.

This is my current Gcode

Code: Select all

; **** Replicator 1 dual start.gcode ****
M73 P0 ; enable build progress
G162 X Y F3000 ; home XY maximum
G161 Z F1200 ; home Z minimum
G92 Z-5 ; set Z to -5
G1 Z0 ; move Z to 0
G161 Z F100 ; home Z slowly
M132 X Y Z A B ; recall home offsets
M135 T0 ; load right extruder offsets
G1 X150 Y-70 Z30 F9000 ; move to wait position right hand side of the table
G130 X20 Y20 Z20 A20 B20 ; lower stepper Vrefs while heating
M126 S[fan_speed_pwm]
M140 S[bed0_temperature] T0
M134 T0 ; stabilize bed temperature
M104 S[extruder0_temperature] T0
M133 T0 ; stabilize right extruder temperature
G130 X127 Y127 Z40 A127 B127 ; default stepper Vrefs
G92 A0 B0 ; zero extruders
G1 Z0.4 ; position nozzle
G1 X110 Y-70 E25 F300 ; purge nozzle
G1 X120 Y-70 Z0.15 F1200 ; slow wipe
G1 X110 Y-70 Z0.5 F1200 ; lift
G92 A0 B0 ; zero extruders
M73 P1 ;@body (notify GPX body has started)
; **** end of start.gcode ****

You are correct. There's dozens of threads already about the exact same thing

Re: Help me fix my start Gcode.

You don't say which nozzle you are actually using with this script and which one the script is for. My guess is you are using the left and it isn't working.

This specific link is for only one thing heating at a time, my problem is not that.

My current issue is both bed and left nozzle will start to heat at the same time but it will only wait for bed temp to reach its target and then begin the print without waiting for the extruder temp.

However, I just noticed I'm using the left extruder and have a line in my code that says M133 T0 ; "wait for right extruder" which is not the extruder I'm using..I'll change this to the correct one and see if that will fix my issue.

Re: Help me fix my start Gcode.

... and the checkbox in the TEMPERATURE-Tab "Wait for ..." doesn't help?

Hi,

I'm not sure, if your Firmware support M133 (stabilize Temperature).
I think M133 is for makerbot Firmware...

Try M109 instead.

Re: Help me fix my start Gcode.

What firmware version are you one? If it is not 7.8 Sailfish then get Flashprint if you don't have it and update the firmware.
