Alwin Hello all,am just bulding my own 3d-printer.Iwould like to use for the y-axis 2 separate stepper and also 2 (4 ) endstops.Is there any solution to handle this with the repetier firmware? Thanks Alwin
Repetier I understand 2 steppers and that is easy with the mirror function.2 endstops are possible but must use the same pin and the first triggering will stop both steppers, so that makes not much sense. I also do not understand why this should be necessary. For z axis this is planned for the future as there it might make sense to keep them in sync.
Alwin Thanks for answer.the mirror for the steppers - ok.But my idea is to make an accurate homepositions on both ends if i had an loss of steps.
Repetier When motors are off it would sync automatically if construction is stiff enough. Also for the bed it would not matter in most cases - not like z axis where it is a real problem if they are not in sync.
Alwin You are right, but to have a good speed i cant make a "stiff and heavy" construction.So i think i have to wait ... A solution like a "babystep" for the second y-stepper would be nice.But now ALL THE BEST FOR 2016
