When my tool change comes up in chillipepper, I hit the energize all motors. It works for a second then doesn’t energize anymore. So I can move the axis’s when I change the tool. I have a TinyG controller. Does anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it?

I believe the Energize times out after $mt,
Try $mt=30 in the console command line.
Then see if you get 30 seconds

$1 is the stepper idle delay. It’s in milliseconds. You can set to 255 to keep them permanently on (energized)

@Kelly_Burns That is how I set up all my machines.

I’ll try that. Thanks
