Communications error when using 2nd print head

Good morning all,
Since updating to OctoPrint 1.9.3 I am getting communications errors when it starts to use the 2nd print head. My setup is a Tenlog TL-D3Pro IDEX 3d printer with two print heads. I use Prusa Slicer.
When I save the test print to the SD card it's prints fine, but when I send the gcode to the Pi running OctoPrint the left hand print works fine until it changes to the 2nd print head I get a communications error.
I have tried running OctoPrint in Safe mode but get the same problem.
Where can I get a copy of 1.9 so that I can try the previous version of the software to see if that solves my problem.
everything worked fine before I updated OctoPrint.
I have reinstalled Octoprint from Scratch on the Pi but still have the same problem.

Any suggestions on how I can address this problem?
Below is a copy of the log where the failure starts

Try this :slight_smile:

Can you verify that you have configured the OctoPrint printer profile to indicate multiple extruders?

I'm not exactly sure what the gcode looks like for IDEX printers but I assume it uses T0 and T1 to switch.

The systeminfo bundle (as it was requested by the deleted template) would be of great help too.

Hi, yes I
can confirm that I have setup the printer profile for 2 extruders. When I updated OctoPrint (as I have done in the past) the updates used the existing printer profile and settings and all worked fine.

I'll download the system bundle and see what I get.

Hopefully I have uploaded the system info files correctly. One is for my PC and the other is for OctoPrint,
