How to Implement T1M6 and T2M6 for Dual Z-Axis in LinuxCNC was created by pd_2832
I'm working on a multihead CNC machine with a dual Z-axis configuration. My goal is to use T1M6 to activate Z1 and T2M6 to activate Z2. I've tried implementing Python remapping, but I'm encountering the following error:
AttributeError: module 'linuxcnc' has no attribute 'remap_command'
Here’s what I’ve tried so far:
1. Created a Python remap script (tool_remap.py).
2. Updated my INI file to include the Python remap.
3. Tested NGC subroutines as an alternative.
My current setup:
- LinuxCNC version: 2.9.3
- INI file configuration: [paste INI file]
- Python script: [paste Python script]
- Error logs: [paste error logs]
Could someone please help me resolve this issue? Thank you!

Please attach ini file and error log.
All I can see at the moment is:
Here you were confusing python remaps with the python interface.
All I can see at the moment is:
# def tool_remap(self, **words):
# command = linuxcnc.command()
# stat = linuxcnc.stat()
# stat.poll()Here you were confusing python remaps with the python interface.

I am using the remap_subs feature in LinuxCNC to control the Z-axis activation for multiple Z axis. Currently, I have implemeted below things:
M428 activates the Z1 axis.
M429 activates the Z2 axis.
However, my goal is to have the activation as mentioned below:
When executing T1 M6, the Z1 axis should be active.
When executing T2 M6, the Z2 axis should be active.
How can I modify the remap logic to achieve this behavior?
Here in gcode file there is T1M6 for Z1 axis instead M428 and T2M6 for Z2 instead of M429.
If i use M428 and M429 in gcode file on the place of T1M6 and T2M6 all things work perfectly but I dont want to change my gcode file how to implement above thing?

You might want to try a simple ngc remap like this first:
Save this as 'm6remap.ngc' in your './remap_subs' folder
Add this to the [RS274NGC] section of your ini file:
Save this as 'm6remap.ngc' in your './remap_subs' folder
o<m6remap>sub
M66 E0 L0 ;force synch
;(debug, tool: #<_selected_tool>)
o1 if [#<_selected_tool> EQ 1]
(print, Tool 1 - Switching to Z1)
M428
o1 elseif [#<_selected_tool> EQ 2]
(print, Tool 2 - Switching to Z2)
M429
o1 else
(print,Unknown tool: #<_selected_tool>)
o1 endif
o<m6remap>endsubAdd this to the [RS274NGC] section of your ini file:
REMAP = M6 modalgroup=6 ngc=m6remap

Hello,
Thanks for your suggestion, as its working properly, I am able to run both Z axis perfectly.
