Algorithm (Workflow)
This algorithm is designed to create copies of a gcode file with modified hot end and base temperatures. It is part of the SolidGeometry library and was introduced in version 5.1. The function is named gcodecopytemp and is authored by Tim Lueth.
Input Parameters
- fname: The name of an existing gcode file. This is a required parameter.
Algorithm Steps
- Check if the file specified by
fname exists using the isfile function. If the file does not exist, an error is thrown with a message indicating the file is missing.
- Call the function
filenameadddate4gcode with fname and true as arguments. This function renames the file to adhere to a standard naming convention for gcode files.
- Invoke the function
SGgcodefilechangetemp multiple times with different temperature settings:
- First call: Set the hot end temperature to 180°C and the base temperature to 60°C.
- Second call: Set the hot end temperature to 190°C and the base temperature to 60°C.
- Third call: Set the hot end temperature to 200°C and the base temperature to 60°C.
- Fourth call: Set the hot end temperature to 210°C and the base temperature to 60°C.
- Fifth call: Set the hot end temperature to 220°C and the base temperature to 60°C.
Each call to SGgcodefilechangetemp modifies the gcode file to reflect the new temperature settings, effectively creating multiple versions of the original file with different temperature configurations.
