How do I access the .ini file?

[Daniel Lancaster]

So this is probably a super stilly question but I am currently trying to build a 3d printer with a beagleboneblack and a cramps board. I can load up machinekit and am able to move the axes' and see the temperatures, but I cannot define the bed temp with the M104 command. This command seems not to be known and when I look online how to solve this, the main response is to add the M-code config file to the .ini file. I have no idea how to do this from the command line. I am currently talking to the BBB via an SSH connection

 Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I cannot find an answer anywhere and my only coding knowledge is with Python and FORTRAN.

All the best,
Danny

It sounds like you used a ready baked config so I assume the custom M104 command file is already where it needs to be and setup. You need to specify a value for the Mcode in MDI. Typing M104 isn't going to do anything. "M104 P50" would set the value of M104 to 50

This is assuming you have an M104 file already setup, M100-M199 are user defined Mcodes, they don't do anything unless someone wrote a file to do what it does and put it where it needs to go
