Setting up macros

I know I can call commands like @pause for example through gcode. But am I also able to call my own custom commands?

For example say I wanted to create a tool changer command and call that from gcode can I do this? like @ChangeTool

  • Depends on how you implement this tool changer. If it is an external command you can configure it to be started by @execute command. See in our manual under advanced setup how to create a extcommands.xml file controlling callable external scripts.
  • I see, so I can basically execute a gcode file?

    	<command>
    		<name>ExampleScript</name>
    		<execute>ScriptToExecude.gcode</execute>
    	</command>
  • No, execute is a runnable software on your pc, not a gcode. In server commands I see no command to include a named script also I think I wanted to add that.
