Hello everyone,

is it possible to disable velocity extrusion by omitting the velocity signal in base.py -> setup_stepper? Right now we use

ve.velocity_extrusion(extruders=numExtruders, thread='servo-thread')
base.setup_stepper(section='EXTRUDER_0', stepgenIndex=3, velocitySignal='ve-extrude-vel-0', stepgenType='hm2_5i25.0.stepgen')

Would

base.setup_stepper(section='EXTRUDER_0', stepgenIndex=3, velocitySignal=None, stepgenType='hm2_5i25.0.stepgen')

disable velocity extrusion? Or is it not possible to disable it in Machinekit?

Best regards

Dennis

Velocity extrusion or not is defined exclusively in the hal file you are using as origin (So what hal file are you attempting to modify ?).
