      @(In)Sanity:

      Awesome, might I suggest archiving some of the older versions so as not to confuse newcomers looking for firmware.

      Maybe use the releases feature in GitHub?

        I meant to use it for the 1.17 release but I ran out of time to get familiar with it. I'll look at it for 1.18.

          Really strange problem. I upgraded to 1.17d and now I can't home the printer. I get 'homeall.g not found' errors.
          But, I have a delta, and I can see (and open and edit) the homedelta.g file through the duet-wifi interface.

          I reverted to 1.17.c and rebooted several times but the problem still exists.

            I think I've managed to reset it to 1.17c using the sam-ba method - I won't have time to reconfigure and test until later this week.

              If it says homeall.g wasn't found then it probably didn't process config.g so it was still in Cartesian mode. Did you try resetting the Duet?

                Yes, I did, more than once.

                Now I can't connect to it all except if I connect by USB to pronterface, stop/start the wifi and then connect to wifi - but the minute I try to edit the config.g or upload a new one, it disconnects and then I cannot connect again by wifi until I reboot and go through the pronterface procedure again.

                FYI: Pronterface reads 'Macro file homeall.g not found.'

                I'll try pressing the reset button again and see what happens.

                  I should probably post this in the 1.17a thread, but figure this one is probably getting more attention right now…

                  I've got a CoreXY machine with a DuetWifi. I was running firmware 1.17 on it and everything was great. I decided to upgrade to 1.17d and things got weird…

                  With the same config.g and the same gcode file (a simple 20x20x5 cuboid), 1.17 prints it normally. However, with 1.17d, it suddenly is acting as if the G1 speed (FXXX) is being slowed way down. It moves very VERY slowly, particularly on rounded corners like the skirt around the cube.

                  Assuming I must have messed something up somewhere, I decided to go back to 1.17. With the same config.g and the same gcode file, it again printed perfectly fine.

                  "Hmmm... that's strange", I thought.

                  Wondering if this was specific to 1.17d, I decided to try 1.17a. I got the same odd feedrate behavior. One more time, keeping the same config.g and model gcode file, I went back to 1.17 again, and it started working normally.

                  It almost looks like the F parameter on G1 is being changed somehow, but I have no idea how to troubleshoot what is really going on. I looked through the commits for 1.17a and did see a change to how the G1 feedrate is being set in gcodes2.cpp (it is now multiplied by the new "secondsToMinutes" constant), but since I can't seem to find anyone else talking about this issue, I have to believe it is something else.

                  Here's the line of code I'm referring to:
                  https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/blob/660e9c7d1ca95df5e31693734c018172f2bae7d8/src/GCodes/GCodes2.cpp#L117

                  Thoughts? I'm happy to post config files, videos, etc. if it will help. At this point I'm going to stick with 1.17 until I can figure out what the heck is going on.

                  Thanks!

                  PS. The model gcode was generated by Cura 2.3.1 if that matters.

                    Okay, think I've fixed it. I removed the SDcard, wiped my /sys dir and copied the /sys_dc42Kossel to /sys

                    Now all the commands work again, though it's not configured for my printer.
                    I think there must be something wrong with my config.g file, so I'm going to reconfigure the config.g by hand instead of re-copying it.

                      I'm glad it's working. You might like to use configtool to generate your new config.sy file.

                        I had an issue after downloading the .bin file was only 43k, I was about to flash it when I noticed, so I downloaded it again and it was 260kb or so which is the right size. Until the webinterface can do an automatic update it's worth checking the file size is right. Any chance of some sort of md5 check or something similar?

                        No issues with 1.17d though working perfectly for me.
