Hi All,
Having some Gcode issues.
What I'm trying to do is purge both extruders on my MakerGear M2... however before I keep wasting PLA, let me ask you guys/girls what I'm doing wrong.
Starting script:::
M108 S255 ; turn on M2 fans
G28 ; home all axes
G1 Y50 Z0.3 F9600 ; move forward to avoid binder clips
G1 X209 Z10 ; move off platform
G1 Z0.4 ; position nozzle
G92 E0 ; zero extruder
G1 E25 F225 ; purge E0 nozzle
T1 ; Change to Extruder E1 (T1)
G1 E25 F225 ; purge E1 nozzle
T0 ; Change to Extruder E0 (T0)
G92 E0 ; zero extruder
G1 X190 Z0.1 E1.0 F1200 ; slow wipe
G1 X180 Z0.25 ; lift
So what it's doing is only purging Extruder 1.. doesn't do much anything else, then starts the print
Re: Extruder GCODE help
After T1 and before the purge, do a G92 E0 (zero E value), otherwise it's trying to go to E25 from E25 (no movement)

Great, let me give that a go!BaudR8 wrote:After T1 and before the purge, do a G92 E0 (zero E value), otherwise it's trying to go to E25 from E25 (no movement)

hiya,
it didnt' work but you got it to function?
does that mean you got both nozzles to purge? if so could you share your solution as I would like to be able to do the same.
cheers
