description: Cut filament by pressing the cutter on a pin with a horizontal movement. 

# Distance to retract prior to making the cut, this reduces wasted filament but might cause clog 
# if set too large and/or if there are gaps in the hotend assembly 
# This must be less than the distance from the nozzle to the cutter.

# The location of the pin, this should be the position of the toolhead when the cutter 
# just lightly touches the pin
variable_pin_loc_x: 14
variable_pin_loc_y: 357

# The starting and end positions when making the cut
# In particular, instead of making the cut by traveling to the pin location above, 
# we leave a small safety margin along X-axis to avoid scratching on the pin when traveling
# This should also give a small distance to produce some momentum when pressing on the pin 
variable_pin_park_x_dist: 5.0

# Position of the toolhead when the cutter is fully compressed
# Should leave a small headroom (e.g., should be a bit larger than 0, or whatever xmin is) to avoid banging the toolhead or gantry
variable_pin_loc_x_compressed: 0

variable_pushback_length: 0
variable_push_dwell_time: 50 # time to dwell between the pushback

# Speed related settings
# Note that if the cut speed is too fast, the steppers can lose steps
# Therefore, for a cut: 
# - We first make a fast move to accumulate some momentum and get the cut blade to the initial contact with the filament
# - We then make a slow move for the actual cut to happen

variable_cut_fast_move_fraction: 1.0 # fraction of the move that uses fast move 

# Safety margin for fast vs slow travel
# When traveling to the pin location, we make a safer but longer move if we closer to the pin than this specified margin
# Usually setting these to the size of the toolhead (plus a small margin) should be good enough 
variable_safe_margin_x: 30
variable_safe_margin_y: 30

# Whether or not to make a second cut
# The goal of the second cut is to avoid filament adding friction to the blade causing the lever unable to decompress
# If set to a positive value, we first retract this amount, make the second cut, then extrude back
# Set to 0 to disable to second cut
# You should only enable this if you cannot get the lever to reliabily decompress.

# Currently ERCF software assumes that tip forming move always moves the extruder (and consequently the encoder)
# Ideally, we should bring formal support of filament cutters to the ERCF software
# In the short term, we perform a "hack" where we wiggle the extruder a little after cutting, 
# if the extruder did not make enough movement during the filament cutting phase.
variable_extruder_minimum_movement: 0 # the minimum extruder movement required for this tip forming move, this depends on the minimum distance that the encoder can reliably detect
                                      # setting it to a lower value requires the ERCF encoder to be more sensitive.
variable_extruder_wiggle_length: 10 # the length to retract -> extrude during a wiggle, this needs to be large enough for the encoder to detect the movement
