How can I find the right firmware?

Phaedrux

@zapta the releases page for each version does state which versions of wifi firmware and DWC that it works with.

zapta

Thanks @phaedrux. Looking at the top release here https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases, assuming I want to get my DWF to that version, what files/versions do I need to have?

Phaedrux

@zapta from the release notes for 2.03
https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/blob/dev/WHATS_NEW.md

Thanks @phaedrux, that's useful, but if version 2.03 requires three files (firmware, web, and wifi), listing all three with links to actual files would make the upgrade even more intuitive. Same for release candidates.

(this is not criticism, just a data point from a user that gets confused by the upgrade requirements).

I think this Steps are every time the right Steps:

@crazycreator in most cases if you're only upgrading from full release to full release you only need to upload the single zip file. Easy as that.

It's only when you are upgrading from a very old firmware, or if you've manually updated something in between such as when using the beta and release candidate versions.

CrazyCreator

I understood that already. It was actually addressed to @zapta to show him a completely safe way that he also has definitely all 3 important packages in the latest version.

After that, it should always be enough to load the Combined, or did I misunderstand something?

Phaedrux

@crazycreator ah I see, I was thrown off when you said every time the right way.

Hopefully in time the DWC (or single board computer) will be able to manage the update process in the near future.

Is this the proper set of file to upgrade a duet wifi and paneldue 5 to the latest stable version? Also, where can I find DuetWebControl 1.22.6 ?

Thanks dc42, so I just need #1 for the duet and #3 for the panel due?
