Stepper motors not disabled after print #25

Open deveth0 opened 4 days ago

In contrary to the stock firmware, OpenQ1 does currently not disable the stepper motors after printing. That results in a power usage of around 50W idle (compared to 14W) and rather high temperatures.

There is already a idle_timeout block but somehow it does not trigger?

Do you have any updates available for OpenQ1 under the Web UI? This should have been fixed by the most recent commit, which caused idle_timeout to not disable motors due to a typo

already have this change in my config.

I have just pushed a commit (e5ab9b9fe3f7369cd8ac05b788627ddeb87274d1) that restores the stock M84 functionality, which leaves the Z steppers enabled. It is possible that the motors have an inverted enable/disable pin, causing them to remain enabled even after M84.

Will give it a try, although disabling the steppers in Fluidd works fine using M84
