Hello All,
I have encountered an infuriating issue, and I believe it is with my pause_part_cancel macro. The issue is: Every time I run an color change --my m600 macro is up to scratch-- It will behave normally. Parking the toolhead, unloading filament, and awaiting instructions. However, if I forget about it and leave it for too long in that state. It will disable steppers AND cool down, which I most certainly don’t want it to do.
Could someone more knowledgeable please look over my macros and let me know what the problem is, or if this is just how klipper handles things, let me know? I’d really appreciate it.
I am running a BTT Manta, and if anyone knows if there is a beeper on that board, I would be most happy to enable it, so I would be less likely to forget, however, if I do forget, I would really not like this to happen. Running the latest klipper version on CB1 and Latest compiled mcu firmware, so not an old firmware issue.
Here are my macros. I know it is long, however, I don’t quite know where the issue exactly resides. This is a direct copy from my mainsail cfg which is where I keep my macros. Here they are:
[gcode_macro START_PRINT]
