what do you mean? gcode to mix resins in the photon?
how do you achieve that?

Easy, when resin stays in VAT for longer time, dye (or pigments) thanks to gravity will goes down. This is gcode that moves z axis up and down in mixed lengths to mix resin. It mixes resin by build platform :) It really works on my Orbeat, which I said has same board as Photon. So i should work at 99% :) Check it :)
BTW. Can you update PhotonFileEditor to open CBDDLP files ? I'm really bored to change twice file names :)
post it here in the issue and i will give it a try

missed the zip. nevermind will test it
mmm, that's plaing Gcode. not sure if it will work... testing now ;)
@bartwaw @Photonsters/photonsters https://youtu.be/M1JdoMIhdcM
looks like it does work. @bartwaw more important than the mixer, that is cool but needs to en above the endstop, where did u get the gcodes from?
do you have acess to a list of all available codes?
we can open up a page for this and respective community tool programs if you do. makes more sense that way actually.
and thanks for sharing this
:) glad that works on yours printer.
You don't need enable anything. It works like that: M17 - enables motors G28 Z - homes Z G91 - switch to relative coordinates G1 Z1 F2000 - moves Z to 1 (or 1mm up, it depends that we used G90 or G91) https://www.cnccookbook.com/g91-g90-g-code-cnc-absolute-incremental-programming/ F parameter - this is speed of movement
and there goes gcode that moves Z axis " .... G1 Z1 G1 Z-1 G1 Z0.5 G1 Z-0.5 .... "
I've made this script because get setup gcode from manufacturer. Then i realized that chitu board interprets gcodes so tried simple gcode that moves z axis. After success made that script cos was bored homing printer dozen times to mix resin in VAT. Im CNC guy so write this wasn't any problem. Now got it in flashdrive - run that script and resin is mixed.
@bartwaw Great work Master
So no official supported Gcode list then :( We have no way of knowing if there is a gcode to turn led on or other stuff
I'll try M30 to see if it ends and moves the plate up
@bartwaw
M17 /18 is as good as not being there, compleatly ignored by the photon at least
G90/91 is also ignored, printer works only in relative coordinates
@bartwaw
This mixing works in the photon but will probably work much better in the orbeat since it has the drilled platform ;)
@bartwaw
Can you test these codes?
Can you please create a mixer that will run much longer? Sometimes I run the mixer manually 10x and wish I could just have one that ran once for 15 minutes. If you think the motors will get hot, it is ok if it rests for 30-60 seconds every few minutes.

You can edit this gcode with a text editor. It is really easy. Just copy & paste those mix modes (there a different types, just watch your printer when hes mixing) as often as you want / need them and you are ready to mix.
Has anyone put this in gcode in the repo? (Sorry; I'm not familiar enough to suggest where.) I'm happy I happened across this issue. I was about to make my own gcode.
I'm attaching my takes on the resin mixing. I made some slow and long mixes; they work with my resin vat heater. I'm hoping these will make it in the repo as well.
