[solved] Standard Firmware on a Caribou

Kubunter

Hello all together,

I own a Caribou MK3S 320 3D-Printer with a Duet2 Wifi and a PanelDue 7.
At the moment Iḿ on firmware 3.3 for the Duet2 and 3.4 for the PanelDue.

Is it possible to use the original firmware for these two units from here?
The firmware on the caribou website is rather old.

Thank you very much,
Kubunter

@Kubunter yes. just read the upgrade notes in case any of the changes affect your config

@jay_s_uk Perfekt, thanks a lot for the quick reply.

I have reviewed the firmware files.
So far they are looking good.

But I noticed that the configuration macros from caribou are really old.
There are newer files available, but especially the config.g is different in the motors and drives section. I have loaded it into diffchecker.

Can you please have a look at the values.
My plan is to use the new configfiles but using the old definition for the drives in the config.g.
Is it safe to use the new values in the "set speeds" section?

Thanks a lot,
Regards Tobias

@Kubunter its possibly worth reaching out to Caribou to see if they have a more uptodate config?

Kubunter

@T3P3Tony I think I have told that wrong.
There are newer files @Caribou available, but there are differences at the drive section in config.g

You see in the link I have posted the actual file on the left, the newer which I do like to use with editing on the right.

@Kubunter ahh ok, so the files come from Caribou - in that case why not give them a go?

Kubunter

@T3P3Tony Thats what I also think.
There is no danger damaging something?
The reduced current is activated for homing.

Update to the newest Firmware of Duet2 and PanelDue works flawless today, additional I flashed V2.10d onto the Wifi Module, because I also have problems before.

The config.g need a couple of tweaking.
But so far it is looking good.

Thanks a lot,
Regards Kubunter
