GPX find axis timeout settings

[execcr]

Hi, i0ve just bought simpify for my custom made bot and i have a problem with homing.
I have a 500mm Z axis, and it take a while to home. In makerware i just edited "find_axis_minimum_timeout" : to 300 sec

In GPX it seems that timeout is hard encoded in firmware machine options, right? any hint?
thanks!

ok i made this:
i generate a gpx.ini file with that code:

Code: Select all

Ok i made it work!
i create a gpx.ini file like that

[printer]
machine_type=r1d

[machine]
timeout=300

[x]
steps_per_mm=88.573186

[y]
steps_per_mm=88.573186

then i put the gpx.ini file into simplify folder and remove the tick from generating x3g file into simplify.
Into Additional terminal command i wrote:

Code: Select all

gpx -c gpx.ini "[output_filepath]"

it should be ok, i print now a calibration cube but using the python x3g disassembler show me that x3g file has now the correct time out value.

Just a question: the gpx.ini file should only modify the variables you put in (in my case timeout and x y step mm rate) but i have to write also other command like the "-g" floag to generate makerbot flavour gcode or is that yet specified in simplify?
thanks!

The gpx terminal command you listed should be fine. Although you might want to add a -p if you want the LCD to show progress.
