It doesn't work for me, how do I configure it?

#

more information is required

#

but the short asnwer is you have to define the settings in AFC.cfg for it, and also have a servo named 'cut'

#

in AFC/AFC.cfg:

  • set the hub_cut_* values (including hub_cut_active: True
  • under the welcome gcode, after PREP add SET_SERVO SERVO=cut ANGLE=n where n is your 'normal pass through' angle for filament

somewhere in your printer config, have a servo named cut defined, such as:

[servo cut]
pin: AFC:PB11  # RGB4
maximum_servo_angle: 180        # Set this to 60 for a 60° Servo
minimum_pulse_width: 0.0005     # Adapt these for your servo
maximum_pulse_width: 0.0025     # Adapt these for your servo
#

do not power the servo off 5v on the AFC-Lite board, use something with a dedicated buck converter.

Try thanks

#

then you don't have your AFC Lite MCU defined as 'AFC'

<@&1304550334839918672> if someone else can help this user pelase?

#

I'm using the adapter

pastel tundra
#

that's good

#

but you still don't have an mcu named 'AFC' hwich is the default

steady girder
#

Where do I see this...I'm not good at this...can you guide me?

If you are unsure, check your config files for the mcu name.

You can try moving the servo definition into your AFC_Turtle_1.cfg file

#

Thank you, I will review and report.

oh my bad

#

i copied that from a very old install where the defautl mcu name was AFC 🙂

steady girder
#

I changed the name

#

I left it in AFC_TURTL_1.cfg is it ok?

#

because it worked for me

pastel tundra
#

that's fine

steady girder
#

Another question...how to adjust the servo so that it fits exactly where the fiber passes

pastel tundra
#

trial and error

#

use SET_SERVO SERVO=cut ANGLE=n

#

to find the correct angles for passthrough, prep for cut, cut

steady girder
#

ok thank
