Dual X Carriage and TMC2208
June 22, 2020 10:24PM
SKR PRO V1.1
TMC2208 on x, y, z, and x2
A4988 on E0, E1

I built a dual x carriage printer and it was running great until recently when i upgraded to TMC2208's on x y z and x2.
Configuration_adv has this section greyed out in visual basic as if x2 isn't set to tmc2208.
#if AXIS_IS_TMC(X2)
#define X2_CURRENT 800
#define X2_CURRENT_HOME X2_CURRENT
#define X2_MICROSTEPS 32
#define X2_RSENSE 0.11
#define X2_CHAIN_POS -1
#endif

Using m569 it returns only x y and z as stealthchop, doesn't include x2 at all. Is there something simple i'm missing?
I can temporarily set x2 to separate steps/mm until i figure this out. But i would love to have both at 32 microsteps.
If i change the line "#if AXIS_IS_TMC(x2)" to "#if AXIS_IS_TMC(x)" to force it to read the section, it still acts as if its set to 1/16
Any help is appreciated

#define X_DUAL_STEPPER_DRIVERS is not set and a old version of marlin...

There is a conflict between x_dual_stepper_drivers and dual carriage mode. They can't be used at the same time.
If i use only dual stepper drivers then i won't get dual carriage mode. I'll try the latest after work tomorrow
