Hello.. i need some help if is possible.. I searched a lot but i don't now if is possible or search in wrong way.. I use a mks base 1.4, with a homemade printer based in a FolgerTech i3 2020. And i want to have 1 extruder with a servo to work with a chimera and Z Dual drive because of the of dual endstop mod... Video in this link: dual z axis and dual z stop If i put 2 extruder and activate Z2 in marlin appears a error that says: Z_DUAL_STEPPER_DRIVERS requires Z2 pins (and an extra E plug) If i use only 1 extruder : error "TEMP_SENSOR_1 shouldn't be set with only 1 HOTEND Is there any change of work around this? Thanks.

But since I have a chimera... Is to see if can use the 2 nozzle with SWITCHING_EXTRUDER..]]> Lc1975 Firmware - Marlin Wed, 14 Nov 2018 04:44:31 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,838425,838514#msg-838514 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,838425,838514#msg-838514 marlinfw.org]

Is that what you have?

as 2 hotends and 1 extruder isnt very common]]> Dust Firmware - Marlin Wed, 14 Nov 2018 04:17:08 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,838425,838510#msg-838510 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,838425,838510#msg-838510 X, Y, Z, E0, E1
Try to use E1 to Z2
I now that is possible...
My problem is the hotend...
Is there any configuration that I can change to have 1 extruder but with 2 hotend?]]> Lc1975 Firmware - Marlin Wed, 14 Nov 2018 03:29:23 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,838425,838493#msg-838493 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,838425,838493#msg-838493
stepper drivers
1 * X
1 * Y
2 * Z
2 * E

that is 6 stepper drivers

and how many stepper drivers are on your controller?

Thats right, 5 stepper drivers

So this is never going to work. (without adding hardware)

You say you also tried with 1 extruder which gives you an error message "TEMP_SENSOR_1 shouldn't be set with only 1 HOTEND"

which explains what to do..

Find #define TEMP_SENSOR_1 in configuration.h and make sure it is set to 0, as you only have 1 hotend]]> Dust Firmware - Marlin Tue, 13 Nov 2018 22:49:17 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,838425,838425#msg-838425 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?415,838425,838425#msg-838425 i need some help if is possible..

And i want to have 1 extruder with a servo to work with a chimera and Z Dual drive because of the of dual endstop mod...

Video in this link:
dual z axis and dual z stop

If i put 2 extruder and activate Z2 in marlin appears a error that says:

Z_DUAL_STEPPER_DRIVERS requires Z2 pins (and an extra E plug)


If i use only 1 extruder :
error "TEMP_SENSOR_1 shouldn't be set with only 1 HOTEND

Is there any change of work around this?

Thanks.
