Energy Measurement of Extruder, Cant extrude with G1 E50
Only Extrude with G1 E50 doesnt work!
Hello everyone,
i am currently trying to measure the energy usage of the extruder, while extruding. Therefore i would like to only extrude without movement whatsoever. I tried the command G0/G1 E50 via Pronterface but nothing happens.
I also tried a custom GCode with:
....
;TYPE:Custom
M104 S215 ; set extruder temp
M109 S215 ; wait for extruder temp
G1 E100.0; intro line
but only get:
echo:endstops
hit:X:-0.55
echo:endstops
hit:X:-0.56
Y:0.15
echo:endstops
hit:X:-0.57
Y:0.15
...
as a loop.
Could somebody please help me?
Thank you very much in advance!
RE:
You can extrude via the LCD menu "settings"->"move axis"->"Extruder"
If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.
RE:
PS: you probably get no movement because the printer has not been homed. Try "G28" before any axis movement.
