Any body knows the M-code to Pause a print in G-code on a CreatBot DX+ with v5.3 Firmware
The M-code for the PlayPause Button ( In the Picture)Macro call if anybody has it.
I did try to read it in Pronterface as the Button is pushed and it returns M6001 for pause and M6002 for restart, but if I try M6001 in G-code it gets into a long loop of restart then pause as you try to restart it with the pause button, Then after some loops of restart pause it looks like it goes to restart the print but it treys to go to Z0 at the XY restart coordinates and crashes in the printed object!
M0 is ignored
M25 crashes the same way as M6001 after restart
M600 works if there is no better method, but it unloads the filament and you cant move the platform with Z up and Z down buttons to get nuts or other stuff inserted in to your print.
The pause button works perfectly it pauses the print drops the platform then homes XY.
Then you can lower the platform with Z down button do your thing(insert nuts parts)
Press the PlayPause button and your print will restart perfectly.
Unfortunately you have to babysit your print for that and manually stop it.

Like you, I have a (large) Creatbot printer and I have actually used the Pause button to be able to insert a 6mm nut into a print succesfully.
But you have to be present to press the button at the right time (that in itself is not always easy to judge).
So am looking forward to anyone who knows the answer.
For now you can try M600 it works with some drawbacks: Unloads filament, no Z down control, you have to reload filament, restarts with OK button.
