*solved* Problems to create a multiline macro on Firmware-1.09x-dc42

Hi all,

I have issues to create a multiline macro on the firmeare-1.09x-dc42.bin

I want to create a button / macro to move the z-axis + 0.01 and - 0.01 mm.
The macro button appears in the webfrontend, but it seems to happen nothing . Or in detail, only one command is executed. how are multipe commands separated ?
I tried sending the commands via the console and it works, but as macro, I seem to miss something.

Any hint what is my mistake ?
Or is there a better way to intregrate a 0.01 mm z-axis move button ?

Here the macro file content :

---- Move Z+-0,01 mm (this is the name of the file) ---
G91
G1 z0.01 F900
G90

----- end of macro file ---


---- Move Z--0,01 mm (this is the name of the file) ---
G91
G1 z-0.01 F900
G90

---- end of macro file ---


Regards
Andreas

edit: update because I found out that one command is execute but not next ones.

MoveZ-001mm

MoveZ+-001mm

You need to use an uppercase Z in your G1 commands.

David,

that is exactly the issue. I need to use uppercase letters for the axis.
After I changed my macro to Z0.01 it is working as expected.

Many thanks for you help.

I'm glad it's working for you now. Just to clarify: the firmware only recognises gcodes and their parameters in uppercase characters. Pronterface and the web interface generally convert any commands you type in to uppercase before sending them to the printer.
