DuetWiFi: upgrading from firmware 2.04
-
It has been a while, but now I can get back to 3D printing.
My DuetWiFi board is currently running:
-
firmware: 2.04
-
wifi server: 1.23
-
web control: 2.04
What is my best way to upgrade to the current 3.4.0 betaX release?
Can I safely upgrade from the Web Control interface ?
If not, where might I find the docs to prepare a new SD card that will upgrade the firmware, server, and control on boot of the SD card?
TIA,
Rick -

When upgrading from 2 to 3 you have to first upgrade to 3.0.0 and then to the desired version of 3

If you still have access to DWC. Upload these 3 zip files, one at a time in the system tab. Don't extract them first. Reboot after each. Use M115 in the gcode console to verify the firmware has been applied.
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/2.05.1/Duet2Firmware-2.05.1.zip
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.0/Duet2and3Firmware-3.0.zip
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.3/Duet2and3Firmware-3.3.zip
That will get your firmware and DWC up to date.From there you can update to the betas manually.
You can see the change logs here:

These documents will come in handy during the conversion.
