      Just wired up the Duet 2 Wifi. I just went thru the config wizard online. I am very unsure on what I did. I have an Ender 5 Plus with the Micro Swiss all metal direct drive setup. Thats the only mod I have so far. I need someone that is familiar with an Ender 5 Plus and obviously the software to look at my config.g and whatever else. I am scared to power on the board and possibly blow up my living room. I need someone to dedicate 30 min or so to go over everything with me before I turn it on. The E5+ comes with the BL Touch. Using 3.11 FW. Also have a Paneldue 5i. Please PM me if interested. You will be compensated for your time!!!

        there is a guide for the ender 3 pro

        the ender 5 pro is close enough that most of the guide still applies

        https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Guide/Ender+3+Pro+and+Duet+Maestro+Guide+Part+1:+Wiring/37

        the duet wifi uses R4700 for the thermistor instead of R2200

          @Veti Wiring is done. I don't want to guess anymore. I just want someone to check it over and help me with issues I might have in the beginning. Its a 5 Plus.....not pro....Plus is 350x350x400.

              Its a 5 Plus.....not pro..

              still a cartesian printer and just a bit bigger than the pro.

              post some photos of the wiring and your config.g

                    Also, what do you think about putting little heatsinks on the driver chips like the stock board has?

                      zprobe in does not normally need to be inverted for the bltouch.

                      G31 P500 X0 Y0 Z2.5 ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height

                      the offset x and y is missing

                      Then Beta value is incorrect, try the beta value from the guide, as creality tends to use the same thermistors

                      M950 F0 C"fan0" Q500 ; create fan 0 on pin fan0 and set its frequency

                      M106 P1 S1 H1 T45 ; set fan 1 value. Thermostatic control is turned on

                      you configured both fans to be Thermostatic controled. this way you have no part cooling fan that can be controlled.

                      also add a T0 to the end of your config.

                      M906 X800 Y800 Z800 E800 I30 ; set motor currents (mA) and motor idle factor in per cent

                      do you have the motor specs for the ender 5 plus?
                      but you could test these values and check the motor temperature by hand during printing.
                      you might want to increase E800 to E900 as in the guide

                      M92 X80.00 Y80.00 Z400.00 E130.00 ; set steps per mm

                      it seems you need Z800

                        Have you ever powered on the board with USB or anything yet?

                        Part 3 of the guide veti linked above goes over initial commissioning. Moving motors safely to test, that sort of thing. Try taking a look at that.

                        https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Guide/Ender+3+Pro+and+Duet+Maestro+Guide+Part+3:+Commissioning/39

                        The duet is pretty hard to kill, but there are a few wiring things you should absolutely double check.

                        First is your motor phase pairings. Failure to get the pairs right would probably just lead to an error message and the motors not working, but it could also damage the drivers, so best to get it sorted first. Here's how.

                        https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Choosing_and_connecting_stepper_motors#Section_Identifying_the_stepper_motor_phases

                        Second is the fan polarity. Positive and negative must be the right way round or you're likely to damage the fan or the fan mosfet on the board or both, so make sure you've got that sorted out before testing the fans.

                                None of these values will autopopulate after I turn it on and auto homes itself and tests itself out?

                                  which part did you not understand? please be specific, then we can further elaborate.

                                  None of these values will autopopulate after I turn it on and auto homes itself and tests itself out?

                                  no.

                                    Did you ever learn how to ride a bicycle?

                                    If so do you remember the leap of faith you had to make without the safety net of training wheels?

                                    Follow the steps to get the printer running, check your wiring multiple times, and trust yourself and take the leap, and flip the switch.

                                      LOL. I didnt think it would be this complicated before I installed it. I thought it would be a quick swap. Anyways theres no turning back now.

                                        I dont see where the Heater for the hot end should max at 280. Also there are 2 fans on the hot end. Shouldnt the values be identical? I got a lot of the fixes from someones 5 Pro config

                                          I dont see where the Heater for the hot end should max at 280.

                                          Add M143 H1 S280 at the end of the heater block under the M307.

                                          Otherwise I don't see any obvious issues.

                                          You can send M98 P"config.g" in the console to see if there are any syntax errors.

                                          Otherwise it's time to do some testing.

                                            as i posted earlier the Z steps according to marlin are Z800

                                            M308 S0 P"bedtemp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4092 C4700 ; configure sensor 0 as thermistor on pin bedtemp

                                            M140 H0 ; map heated bed to heater 0
                                            M143 H0 S110 ; set temperature limit for heater 0 to 110C
                                            M308 S1 P"e0temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4092 C4700 ; configure sensor 1 as thermistor on pin e0temp

                                            delete the C4700 thats not the resistance. you can leave R empty and the correct default is choosen.
