Set up a Y Splitter and Multicolor printing

[Andre267]

Hi Guys,

i build my self a Y Splitter like this: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1909725/
to print with 1 Hotend and 2 Extruders in 2 Colors/Materials.

But i don't get it how to set up my Machine in Simplify 3D to get this running....
Can anyone explain me how to do this?

And i've got a second Question:
How can i pause a print after it reatch the height of 15mm, 22mm and 37mm?

Hope you can help me.

Theres a factory file shared in this post. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=8127&p=34801#p34870
Check the toolchange script in the scripts tab for an example of how this can be managed.

Some help with writing scripts can be found here. viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1959

Thx for this, but is it possible to move the Primetower a bit away?

Not that I know of. Prime pillar positioning is automatic. The only changes you're able to make with positioning are it's total size and cardinal directional location.
