Ah, an update. It's been a while since I looked at this (other things got in the way) so would someone please remind me where I can get the latest BtnCmd files.

BtnCmd Beta_0.10.09

You do need to be using Duet firmware 3.4.x to use this version with it's new features.

I had postponed upgrading from 3.3.0 to 3.4.x but when I read about the new features in BtnCmd I made the leap to 3.4.x.

@mintytrebor said in BtnCmd useage:

@arnold_r_clark No. It's not possible to insert/overlay a button into core DWC screens with BtnCmd.

OK thank you for the clarification, I can safely remove the plugin, as I can do all I need with macro's that I can place on the main screen.

I'd keep it.

It can be incredibly useful even if macros work for you for now.

I replaced a large number of my macros with a few BtnCmd controls and I like the interaction much better. I can do things that would have been a pain with macros.

@oliof oh, ok

And I fixed it!!

After @engikeneer confirmed that it should work with no need to have the extra lines in the start g-code and @Arnold_R_Clark advising me to do a re-install and that didnt work it got me thinking, so i just did a system rollback in win10 to before i even downloaded PrusaSlicer.

I then went and checked in my appdata folders and i found a very old installation of PrusaSlicer from over 2 years ago, i must have tried it uninstalled and forgot, i used to run simplify3d before installing ideamaker.

deleted the old appdata files, ran a regedit scan using CC cleaner and that cleared out a pile of old broken registry files relating to PrusaSlicer and a reboot and re-install and it now works as @engikeneer said it should. it must have been windows being windows..

thanks to you both for helping me to fix this with the confirmation and the re-install ideas. i will mark it as a question and solved.

thank you again

A quick update, @nomukaiki...

The app connects without issue to my RatRig machine, but for some reason I get this on the Printers screen...

...but this on device screen...

(sorry the images are so large!)

I kinda thought I could do more with the app, though, perhaps jog the spindle?

@pew

I just saw this. Maybe this can help? It can act as a broker to multiple programs.

I use it in combination with DuetLape3.

@dariusz So I have tried with several TFT25 firmware including first one which has config_rrf.ini from march 2021. No change, still no continuous communication with duet2 wifi board.

After a reinstall it works again 🙂 Thanks.

@oliof and all the others:

Release 1.4.0 is out now!
Changelog:

Get it here: https://github.com/seeul8er/RepPanel_ESP32/releases/tag/v1.4.0

@spirit-robotics The DWC that the Duet 3 has, will let you control the printer from a web browser, and using a PI will provide the security.

Yes it sounds like a problem with the SD card that would be covered by a warranty replacement.

Please send an email to warranty@duet3d.com and CC your reseller. Include a link to this forum thread and the details of your original purchase. You'll receive a reply with a form to fill out.

As for a work around, you could use DuetPi with the raspberry pi and connect it to the duet.

@dc42 said in Neopixels Driven off RPI:

I guess it should be possible to use the shared SPI channel and an external gate to drive NeoPixels on Duet 2.

That sounds promissing!
The ext. gate for level shifting?
Do I have to put the request in the firmware wishlist section?

@docfail
I use kisslicer, superslicer, simplify3d all the instructions are in mosaic support area
each of the slicers have there own issues so its what works best for you

@dc42 that's pretty nice as well, thanks for linking. the suggestion to use M38 is also good, but ultimately unusable because of race conditions in getting rr_gcode/rr_reply properly aligned.

@oliof, now if I could only get Cura to play nice with storing it's stuff on a network ....

@fotomas Any luck with writing the macro? I would be interested. Thanks

@jens55 glad its sorted!
