      No internet is required, can use local network with dhcp or set static ip in duet config if the network does not have dhcp server.

      Updates etc can be done by moving downloaded files onto SD card for offline updating as well.

        Brilliant thanks. That's what I was hoping.
        Cheers!

          Just a side note, there is usually no need to compile anything. Just place the config g-code in config.g file in /sys/ on the SD card, power on and thats it.

          You can also connect using USB and enter the g-code to set up networking, at which point you can access Duet Web Control and edit/upload configs in the browser from your local network.

            Ok I understand, thanks. It's this user friendly "simplicity" that appeals to me as programming is not my strong point.

              programming is not my strong point.

              There's no programming, exactly, but there is configuring. You'll need to get a basic understanding of the gcodes being used for configuration.

                @Phaedrux Thanks for that link, I'll be reading that over the next few days. I've not began to learn any actual gcode yet as I'm still waiting for delivery of my printer. But it seems allot easier to get simple commands in gcode, than using C++ in Marlin.

                  There's a lot of documentation to get your started with the board and firmware.

                  https://duet3d.dozuki.com/

                  And of course the forum if you get stuck.

                    Also, those commands are DYNAMIC. Real time. So if you are experiment because your not quite certain about something in the documentation, you can enter the command on the console, try it, see what the printer does, and enter a slightly changed command.

                    All via the web interface. All in seconds. Instead of edit/compile/reset dozens of minutes.

                      @Danal Yes I saw people doing that. It looked really useful. This does seem the best platform for 3D printing.

                        Not limited to 3d printing:) And while most of us will agree, I'll admit to a little bias:)
