Error messages: "RrHalfPlane.find(): plane not found" and "RrPolygonList.ppSearch(): no point found!" - 14 years ago

Hey Reprappers, I was trying to convert the attached .stl into Gcode.However, the console gave me an error message "RrHalfPlane.find(): plane not found". Also, when I tried to convert another .stl (which is too large to attach), the console shows the error "RrPolygonList.ppSearch(): no point found!". I wonder why that happens? Thanks! Bing

Re: Driving two extruders - 14 years ago

Hi Johnny, Thanks for your reply! We did change the MY_NAME of one extruder to '1'. And in fact, we are able to drive two fans separately. However, the two stepper motors always move simultaneously.

Driving two extruders - 14 years ago

Dear Reprappers, I am looking into how to separately control the stepper motors of two extruders. I am using two extruder controllers and I have hooked up one stepper motor to each of them.
