#Creating A Custom Macro
12 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
I aksed chatgpt to c reate this macro for me and this is what I got:
PAUSE
G91 ; Set relative positioning
G1 Z100 F3000 ; Move toolhead up by 100mm
G90 ; Set absolute positioning
G1 X0 Y200 F3000 ; Move bed forward (adjust Y200 for your printer)
RESPOND MSG="Print paused. Resume manually with RESUME."
M117 "Paused - Resume manually"
M0 ; Wait for user to resume
im running it now with my finger on the estop
I have no idea what your question was, but it seems like you want a PAUSE macro? I highly recommend our macros as they do what your macro is doing, but basically in a more advanced way.

On most up to date klipper installations, those should be already be preinstalled
thank you for responding, i kinda got what I wanted with the help of chatgpt, but i realized what i really wanted to do was change the default pause position of the printer, i attempted to do this but had no lukc, ill be looking into it more today

You should only use ChatGPT, if you can understand the output at least a little bit. As wrong stuff can damage your printer.
The mainsail-config got paramaters that you can set to use a custom parking pos, as you can read here: https://github.com/mainsail-crew/mainsail-config?tab=readme-ov-file#customize-macros
it actually worked ok, im still working out the process as this is so i can add a non printed object to the buildplate. thank you for the resource I will look into it further
You know that you can just move the bed+toolhead around while paused and on resume it will get back to the correct position? So in theory you don't need any specific macros ^^
If you need any help, just let me know
i tried that and the axis locked into place until i manually unlocked them, but once I had done that I then needed to rehome before I could unpause the print job, luckly the part wasnt in the way but its not something I want to rely on in the future
