I am trying to set the board to have dual Y axis, but am struggling in understanding how. Which config lines should I modifiy?

Look in pins file for marlin for pins_BTT_OCTOPUS_V1_common.h You might need to rename something like ...

#define Z_STEP_PIN PF11 // MOTOR 2 #define Z_DIR_PIN PG3 #define Z_ENABLE_PIN PG5 #ifndef Z_CS_PIN #define Z_CS_PIN PC6 #endif

#define Z2_STEP_PIN PG4 // MOTOR 3 #define Z2_DIR_PIN PC1 #define Z2_ENABLE_PIN PA0 #ifndef Z2_CS_PIN #define Z2_CS_PIN PC7 #endif

To Y2.

Hi @ebraiman, thank you for the answer. I will try.

just to be clear you mean that I should change the block (in this ase I think the one I like) like so:

#define Y2_STEP_PIN PG4 // MOTOR 3 #define Y2_DIR_PIN PC1 #define Y2_ENABLE_PIN PA0 #ifndef Y2_CS_PIN #define Y2_CS_PIN PC7 #endif

is that right?
