This document describes the commands that Klipper supports. These are
commands that one may enter into the OctoPrint terminal tab.
# G-Code commands
Klipper supports the following standard G-Code commands:
- Move (G0 or G1): `G1 [X<pos>] [Y<pos>] [Z<pos>] [E<pos>] [F<speed>]`
- Dwell: `G4 P<milliseconds>`
- Move to origin: `G28 [X] [Y] [Z]`
- Turn off motors: `M18` or `M84`
- Wait for current moves to finish: `M400`
- Select tool: `T<index>`
- Use absolute/relative distances for extrusion: `M82`, `M83`
- Use absolute/relative coordinates: `G90`, `G91`
- Set position: `G92 [X<pos>] [Y<pos>] [Z<pos>] [E<pos>]`
- Set speed factor override percentage: `M220 S<percent>`
- Set extrude factor override percentage: `M221 S<percent>`
- Set acceleration: `M204 S<value>`
- Get extruder temperature: `M105`
- Set extruder temperature: `M104 [T<index>] [S<temperature>]`
- Set extruder temperature and wait: `M109 [T<index>] S<temperature>`
- Set bed temperature: `M140 [S<temperature>]`
- Set bed temperature and wait: `M190 S<temperature>`
- Set fan speed: `M106 S<value>`
- Turn fan off: `M107`
- Emergency stop: `M112`
- Get current position: `M114`
- Get firmware version: `M115`
For further details on the above commands see the
[RepRap G-Code documentation](http://reprap.org/wiki/G-code).
Klipper's goal is to support the G-Code commands produced by common
3rd party software (eg, OctoPrint, Printrun, Slic3r, Cura, etc.) in
their standard configurations. It is not a goal to support every
possible G-Code command. Instead, Klipper prefers human readable
["extended G-Code commands"](#extended-g-code-commands).
## G-Code SD card commands
Klipper also supports the following standard G-Code commands if the
"virtual_sdcard" config section is enabled:
- List SD card: `M20`
- Initialize SD card: `M21`
- Select SD file: `M23 <filename>`
- Start/resume SD print: `M24`
- Pause SD print: `M25`
- Set SD position: `M26 S<offset>`
- Report SD print status: `M27`
## G-Code display commands
The following standard G-Code commands are available if a "display"
config section is enabled:
- Display Message: `M117 <message>`
- Set build percentage: `M73 P<percent>`
## Other available G-Code commands
The following standard G-Code commands are currently available, but
using them is not recommended:
- Offset axes: `M206 [X<offset>] [Y<offset>] [Z<offset>]` (Use
SET_GCODE_OFFSET instead.)
- Get Endstop Status: `M119` (Use QUERY_ENDSTOPS instead.)
# Extended G-Code Commands
Klipper uses "extended" G-Code commands for general configuration and
status. These extended commands all follow a similar format - they
start with a command name and may be followed by one or more
parameters. For example: `SET_SERVO SERVO=myservo ANGLE=5.3`. In this
document, the commands and parameters are shown in uppercase, however
they are not case sensitive. (So, "SET_SERVO" and "set_servo" both run
the same command.)
The following standard commands are supported:
- `QUERY_ENDSTOPS`: Probe the axis endstops and report if they are
"triggered" or in an "open" state. This command is typically used to
verify that an endstop is working correctly.
- `GET_POSITION`: Return information on the current location of the
toolhead.
- `SET_GCODE_OFFSET [X=<pos>|X_ADJUST=<adjust>]
[Y=<pos>|Y_ADJUST=<adjust>] [Z=<pos>|Z_ADJUST=<adjust>]`: Set a
positional offset to apply to future G-Code commands. This is
commonly used to virtually change the Z bed offset or to set nozzle
XY offsets when switching extruders. For example, if
"SET_GCODE_OFFSET Z=0.2" is sent, then future G-Code moves will
have 0.2mm added to their Z height. If the X_ADJUST style parameters
are used, then the adjustment will be added to any existing offset
(eg, "SET_GCODE_OFFSET Z=-0.2" followed by "SET_GCODE_OFFSET
Z_ADJUST=0.3" would result in a total Z offset of 0.1).
- `PID_CALIBRATE HEATER=<config_name> TARGET=<temperature>
[WRITE_FILE=1]`: Perform a PID calibration test. The specified
heater will be enabled until the specified target temperature is
reached, and then the heater will be turned off and on for several
cycles. If the WRITE_FILE parameter is enabled, then the file
/tmp/heattest.txt will be created with a log of all temperature
samples taken during the test.
- `TURN_OFF_HEATERS`: Turn off all heaters.
- `SET_VELOCITY_LIMIT [VELOCITY=<value>] [ACCEL=<value>]
[ACCEL_TO_DECEL=<value>] [SQUARE_CORNER_VELOCITY=<value>]`: Modify
the printer's velocity limits. Note that one may only set values
less than or equal to the limits specified in the config file.
- `SET_PRESSURE_ADVANCE [EXTRUDER=<config_name>] [ADVANCE=<pressure_advance>]
[ADVANCE_LOOKAHEAD_TIME=<pressure_advance_lookahead_time>]`:
Set pressure advance parameters. If EXTRUDER is not specified, it
defaults to the active extruder.
- `STEPPER_BUZZ STEPPER=<config_name>`: Move the given stepper forward
one mm and then backward one mm, repeated 10 times. This is a
diagnostic tool to help verify stepper connectivity.
- `RESTART`: This will cause the host software to reload its config
and perform an internal reset. This command will not clear error
state from the micro-controller (see FIRMWARE_RESTART) nor will it
load new software (see
[the FAQ](FAQ.md#how-do-i-upgrade-to-the-latest-software)).
- `FIRMWARE_RESTART`: This is similar to a RESTART command, but it
also clears any error state from the micro-controller.
- `STATUS`: Report the Klipper host software status.
- `HELP`: Report the list of available extended G-Code commands.
## Custom Pin Commands
The following command is available when an "output_pin" config section
is enabled:
- `SET_PIN PIN=config_name VALUE=<value>`
## Servo Commands
The following commands are available when a "servo" config section is
enabled:
- `SET_SERVO SERVO=config_name WIDTH=<seconds>`
- `SET_SERVO SERVO=config_name ANGLE=<degrees>`
## Probe
The following commands are available when a "probe" config section is
enabled:
- `PROBE`: Move the nozzle downwards until the probe triggers.
- `QUERY_PROBE`: Report the current status of the probe ("triggered"
or "open").
## Delta Calibration
The following commands are available when the "delta_calibrate" config
section is enabled:
- `DELTA_CALIBRATE`: This command will probe seven points on the bed
and recommend updated endstop positions, tower angles, and radius.
- `NEXT`: If manual bed probing is enabled, then one can use this
command to move to the next probing point during a DELTA_CALIBRATE
operation.
## Bed Tilt
The following commands are available when the "bed_tilt" config
section is enabled:
- `BED_TILT_CALIBRATE`: This command will probe the points specified
in the config and then recommend updated x and y tilt adjustments.
- `NEXT`: If manual bed probing is enabled, then one can use this
command to move to the next probing point during a
BED_TILT_CALIBRATE operation.
## Mesh Bed Leveling
The following commands are available when the "bed_mesh" config
section is enabled:
- `BED_MESH_CALIBRATE`: This command probes the bed using generated
points specified by the parameters in the config. After probing,
a mesh is generated and z-movement is adjusted according to the mesh.
- `BED_MESH_OUTPUT`: This command outputs the current probed z values
and current mesh values to the terminal.
- `BED_MESH_MAP`: This command probes the bed in a similar fashion
to BED_MESH_CALIBRATE, however no mesh is generated. Instead,
the probed z values are serialized to json and output to the
terminal. This allows octoprint plugins to easily capture the
data and generate maps approximating the bed's surface. Note
that although no mesh is generated, any currently stored mesh
will be cleared as the process rehomes the printer.
- `BED_MESH_CLEAR`: This command clears the mesh and removes all
z adjustment. It is recommended to put this in your end-gcode.
## Z Tilt
The following commands are available when the "z_tilt" config section
is enabled:
- `Z_TILT_ADJUST`: This command will probe the points specified in the
config and then make independent adjustments to each Z stepper to
compensate for tilt.
## Dual Carriages
The following command is available when the "dual_carriage" config
section is enabled:
- `SET_DUAL_CARRIAGE CARRIAGE=[0|1]`: This command will set the active
carriage. It is typically invoked from the activate_gcode and
deactivate_gcode fields in a multiple extruder configuration.
## TMC2130
The following command is available when the "tmc2130" config section
is enabled:
- `DUMP_TMC STEPPER=<name>`: This command will read the TMC2130 driver
registers and report their values.
## Force movement
The following commands are available when the "force_move" config
section is enabled:
- `FORCE_MOVE STEPPER=<config_name> DISTANCE=<value>
VELOCITY=<value>`: This command will forcibly move the given stepper
the given distance (in mm) at the given constant velocity (in
mm/s). No acceleration is performed; no boundary checks are
performed; no kinematic updates are made; other parallel steppers on
an axis will not be moved. Use caution as an incorrect command could
cause damage! Using this command will almost certainly place the
low-level kinematics in an incorrect state; issue a G28 afterwards
to reset the kinematics. This command is intended for low-level
diagnostics and debugging.
- `SET_KINEMATIC_POSITION [X=<value>] [Y=<value>] [Z=<value>]`: Force
the low-level kinematic code to believe the toolhead is at the given
cartesian position. This is a diagnostic and debugging command; use
SET_GCODE_OFFSET and/or G92 for regular axis transformations. If an
axis is not specified then it will default to the position that the
head was last commanded to. Setting an incorrect or invalid position
may lead to internal software errors. This command may invalidate
future boundary checks; issue a G28 afterwards to reset the
kinematics.
