Can I insert a PAUSE in the Gcode at certain levels? For instance, by making the pause conditional in the 'after layer' section ? (f.i. "if layer equals 23: PAUSE" ) or by other means, not editing the gcode after slicing....

This is exactly what I needed. I home the X before so no droop on the object. Thanks.

Now.... it would be nice to know when that moment has arrived.
So my thoughts are to sound an external alarm when @Pause is triggered.

Any way to achieve someting like that ? Shorting a switch somewhere so that switch can power my alarm that is far away by wire ?]]> Replace Slic3r Mon, 22 Aug 2016 10:50:00 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690956#msg-690956 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690956#msg-690956

It never paused. It just ran all the way to the end.
I posted a question in the Repetier forum, maybe there is the solution, as it is a repetier issue in my case :-)

I am not running from SD, but from the repetier host on Windows10

So you mean I can put the string @pause in the Gcode ?]]> Replace Slic3r Fri, 22 Jul 2016 04:27:21 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690875#msg-690875 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690875#msg-690875
If you're not running the print off the SD card (though I generally recommend doing so), you can handle a pause through Repetier-Host by inserting @pause.

This is apparently a feature to which they've been doing some changes in the more-recent versions of Repetier firmware.]]> IMBoring25 Slic3r Thu, 21 Jul 2016 23:13:11 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690719#msg-690719 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690719#msg-690719
Can't find a repetier supported pause command in the reprapwiki on Gcode]]> Replace Slic3r Thu, 21 Jul 2016 10:46:39 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690689#msg-690689 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690689#msg-690689

that is the alternative,
but last time I tried, the pause was called and resume was immediately called too..So I did miss the moment.


So what went wrong ? I will try again.]]> Replace Slic3r Wed, 20 Jul 2016 13:42:23 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690319#msg-690319 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,689911,690319#msg-690319

For instance, by making the pause conditional in the 'after layer' section ?

(f.i. "if layer equals 23: PAUSE" )


or by other means, not editing the gcode after slicing....
