Driver numbers?
-
I wonder if numbering of heaters, drivers, temperature monitoring channels can be standardised across the firmware, diagrams, DWC and paneldue? Its sometimes hard to work out if you want fan 0 (or fan 1 as it is on DWC) etc.. there is already a thread about temperature monitoring channels.
-
The text from the wiki that you quoted is the comment at the end of the example. That example sets them up as that comment describes. The mapping from driver numbers to connectors on the Duet is as you list.

Hi there, i still couldnt figure out the correct remapping of my four z-axis motors. I also got a Duex5 board and would like to assign Motor Drivers E2,E3,E4,E5 of the Duex board to drive my z-axis and some time later maybe even autolevel and not only probe the bed using the z-probe…
The Duex should be working fine since it pops up after giving the M115 command and its powered at 24V. My g-code is as follows:
; Drives
M569 P0 S1 ; Drive 0 goes forwards
M569 P1 S1 ; Drive 1 goes forwards
M569 P2 S0 ; Drive 2 goes backwards
M569 P3 S1 ; Drive 3 goes forwards
M584 X0 Y1 Z5:6:7:8 E3 ; Apply custom drive mapping
...Iam new to any programming language so iam having difficulties understanding the gcode grammar but maybe someone could tell me what is wrong with my code, since the motors dont move or see any current at all.
Moving and z-probing the bed worked already when I was using the two serial Z-motor connectors of the DuetWifi board with 2xtwo motors connected in parallel but i also cleverly forgot that the electronic coupling also hinders me from independently moving the four axes manually in order to level the bed :-))
many thanks in advance!!!

Make sure that you put the M584 command before other movement-related commands (except M569), in particular before M350 and M906. Also check that the firmware reports the presence of the DueX5 board in the M115 command or on the Settings General page of DWC,
I have started implementing bed levelling using independent Z motors. See https://duet3d.com/wiki/G-code#M671:_Define_Z_leadscrew_positions.
Driver numbers are now documented at https://duet3d.com/wiki/Driver_and_heater_numbers.
-
I am confused that on the wiring diagram (https://duet3d.com/wiki/Duet_WiFi_wiring_diagrams) the drivers does not have their corresponding firmware driver numbers written on them. Why do we refer to driver numbers 0-10 in the firmware, but in the hardware documentation they are named x,y,z,e0,e1,e2,e3,e4,e5,e6
Please put the correct driver numbers in the wiring diagrams.

I have finally done this, sorry for the delay:

Thanks Tony,
this is very useful. -
Dear DC42, sorry that i cant put this more specific but what do i have to do to perform an auto bed levelling exactly? I get a nice reliable heightmap within 5µm deviation between measurements but the single z-axis motors do not corrected for the offset.
thanks and gn8

That should work if you press the bed compensation button before each print. But I recommend you use mesh bed compensation instead of 4-point compensation. See https://duet3d.com/wiki/Using_mesh_bed_compensation.

Hi, thanks for the fast reply but Iam looking for auto levelling/calibration before and even without printing. I thought there was already a command for that like G30/32 or G29 which does it but i always get the same heightmap in the end with no corretions made, you see?

Doh - unfortuntately I am obviously so bad in text based code that i cant even upload an image
-
Well its still saying it did do leadscrew adjustments but it doesnt..
Plus i do not seem to be able to individually define mesh grid points instead of a pattern with a predefined spacing. If i would like to scan and display the heightmap with only 4 points for bed levelling before compensation during print, that it not possible if a have a non symmertric bed (like 200x300 as i do).thx

1. Your bed probing for leadscrew adjustment and your G29 bed probing appear to differ in their idea of where Z=0 is by about 0.8mm. Are you homing during the sequence at all, e.g. in the bed.g file ?
2. What happens if you run leadscrew adjustment multiple times, without homing or doing G29 in between? Does the adjustment converts to near zero?
3. The M557 mesh bed compensation allows you to specify different X and Y spacings for the grid. So you can do 4 point probing on a rectangular bed.
-
Hi, M557 worked, using two different s parameters for each axis is doing the trick - thanks!
I dont get leadscrew adjustments yet, with or without homing. It still says leadscrew adjustments are made when they are not - e.g. leadscrew 4 at motor 8 offset is constantly 50 µm off and not being adjusted automatically, when manualy adjustment is working by splitting the z motor definition to individual ones using M584 (meaning that i can move individual z motors so they are not under defined when only defining one z motor in config.g, correct?)
thx
-
That sounds odd. If the firmware says that leadscrew adjustments have been made, then it should have sent step pulses to the motors. Are you certain it isn't adjusting them? The movements may be too small to see easily. One test you can do is to run G31 repeatedly to see if the reported corrections change.
-
My z-motors are arranged counterclockwise, if that matters?
-
It doesn't matter, as long as you list the leadscrew coordinates of the Z motors in the same order that you list the corresponding drivers numbers.
