Reset/Re-initialize 3D Chameleon Controller

Hi Bill!

Is there a process to reset the micro-controller on the 3D Chameleon control board? I almost had my configuration tuned, when it started malfunctioning. When I start the print job, it resets (7 pulses) fine and selects T0 (1 pulse), but when it feeds T0, it only goes 2/3rds of the way and stops. I thought I'd changed something in the G-Code to cause this, but nothing in that portion of the code has stopped. What's really wierd is that the next press of the switch starts feeding T3! Susequent presses feed or extracts other lines. It takes multiple presses before it starts pulsing again.

I tried unplugging and replugging the control board, but it repeats the same problem. I currently have it unplugged to cool awhile.

The only setting of the 3DChameleon is the Mode. Cycle 10 pulses to switch to the correct mode.

I tried that… All I did prior to this behaviour, is adjust the purge when loading filament. I guess I'll start over with a clean Tool Change code, and re-enter my changes… This is just wierd!

Make sure there isn't anything mechanically wrong with it.

You can disregard this entire post. It turned out that is was either a bad upload to Octoprint or a bad slice. I resliced the project and it's working correctly now.
