ToolChange Filament Swap
July 24, 2020 09:35PM
Hi all
Setup
Re-Arm-Ramps 1.4
Marlin 2.0.5.3
CoreXY
Hot End- Bigtreetech 2 in 1


#define TOOLCHANGE_ZRAISE 1 // (mm) - "does not lift 1 until tool change starts"
//#define TOOLCHANGE_NO_RETURN // Never return to the previous position on tool-change

//#define EVENT_GCODE_AFTER_TOOLCHANGE "G12X" // G-code to run after tool-change is complete

#define TOOLCHANGE_FILAMENT_SWAP
#define TOOLCHANGE_FIL_SWAP_LENGTH 50 // (mm)
#define TOOLCHANGE_FIL_EXTRA_PRIME 0 // (mm)
#define TOOLCHANGE_FIL_SWAP_RETRACT_SPEED 1800 // (mm/m)
#define TOOLCHANGE_FIL_SWAP_PRIME_SPEED 1800 // (mm/m)

//#define TOOLCHANGE_PARK

The problem I am having is the hotend pauses over the print until the tool change filament starts and leaves a pile of plastic.
Is there a way to have it do a retract 5mm lift 2mm then start the filament change.

I wound up disabling toolchange fli swap.
Didn't like the prime tower anyway.
So I am using gcode in my extruder start and end for a bucket style.
Uses a lot less plastic.
If you all would like I will post the start end gcode when I get it working correctly 80% there.
Thank you all
