When will there be a Duet 3 config file?

kdsands88

from the Webpage: Until https://configtool.reprapfirmware.org/ is updated to support Duet3 and RepRapFirmware 3 you will need to generate these files manually.

Question: how do I generate these files manually?

dc42

That bit of the web page is out of date. The online configurator does support Duet 3.

Which web page was it?

kdsands88

How do you slave E0 to Z in the config wizard?

I've found it and updated it. It was here: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/SBC_Setup_for_Duet_3?revisionid=HEAD#Section_Step_4_Configuring_system_files

So, you can not slave two stepper motors/drivers from the config wizard? ie Slave E0 to Z?

Are you still talking about Duet 3? It doesn't have E0 motor drivers?

But no, the config tool cannot (yet?)

Phaedrux

Sorry I missed your second question. The configurator cannot yet create advanced setups.

See here for mapping 2 Z drivers and possibly using it for tilt correction.

There is 6 stepper drivers on this board.

And, you are telling me I can slave one driver to another?

A Former User

yes, ref the link above

kdsands88

No, reference above is not the answer.

Build two CNC machine, do multi-rotors. I know what slaving two stepper motors/drivers is.

Again, I input to the Z and Z motor and E0 motor outputs the same steps. They are slaved together.

How do I do this from the config wizard?

Again,lulsbot has two z-axis.

I don't understand what you mean. Can you post your config.g and describe what you're trying to achieve?

M584 X0 Y1 Z2:4 E3; two Z motors connected to driver outputs Z and E1

I am trying to generate a config file from this website:
https://configtool.reprapfirmware.org/Start

I do not have a config file yet.

you still cannot do it in the config wizzard, but you can add the second motor to any axis by understanding how M584 works (after having generated config with just 1 motor)

kdsands88

OK, I understand I cannot slave two motors in the config wizard.

So, I ask my question again
Question: how do I generate these files manually?

Phaedrux

Start with the config generator and then edit the file manually. That will be the normal mode of operation going forward.

kdsands88

Why is "That will be the normal mode of operation going forward."

This is not acceptable.

So, Duet3D does not support their products?

Again, made two CNC from https://linuxcnc.org/ and never had this kind of problems before.

Answer:
https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/10133/m584-format-question-please

For the Duet 3 formatting:
M584 X0.0 Y0.1 Z0.2:0.3 E0.4 ; set drive mapping -- Setup slave motor Z-axis to driver 2 and 3

Why can't this be done in the config wizard? I do not know.

A Former User

The 0. part of X0.0 is redundant when you only have the one Duet3 board without expansions, remove that and you're back to what was posted to you earlier.

Maybe put some more effort into educating yourself and less in trying to project some sort of misguided superiority?

Phaedrux

Sorry to fail to meet your expectations. The config tool is always evolving. Along with the transition to rrf3 and the dropping of rrf2 will allow for much more flexibility. Until then this is the current state. However editing the config in real time using the web interface on the duet is a major feature and advantage.

kdsands88

First, I am not superior.
Could I get FastBot to work? No.
Could I get Replicape - Kamikaze or Replicape - Umikaze? No.

I am just frustrate with companies pushing product that they do not supported.

Again, CNClinux.org has been doing this for over 20 years. This is not something new.
