New firmware 1.21RC4
-
Try the following:
1. Upload Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin through Settings->General in DWC.
2. In DWC go to System Editor and delete the old DuetWiFiFirmware.bin file.
3. Rename Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin to DuetWiFiFirmware.bin.
4. Send M997.I'll give this a shot once the current print is over. (in about 15 hours x-x). Currently in the process of overhauling the printer with new parts in a slightly more stable design, so trying to utilize all the time I've got when I'm at work and sleeping.

Sorry, I'm a slow tester.
I have issues with RC3 regarding the H-parameter of G30. It seems to be ignored, or I made it wrong?!
Here's what I did:
Home the Delta
Delta calibration using bed.g and 6 factors
Use the same bed.g, but with S-1 to report the H-values
Replace the H-values in bed.g including +/- signs
Reset and calibrate again, but getting the same issues with inconsistent nozzle height
Revers the +/- signs of the H parameter, but again, no changes regarding nozzle height.I'd expect it would get worse ot better, when reversing the sign, but no changes???
Sorry, if that's already reported, but I don't have the time to read all the posts in the other thread.
edit: I used the new multiprobe-feature, maybe it's related?

dc42:
You mentioned in the RC3 thread that you wanted to change G30 for multi-probing and possible to move back to the dive height:
I am looking at this now. It would be easier if I change the behaviour of G30 with no P parameter so that after probing it moves the probe up to the dive height, just as it does when there is a P parameter. Can anyone see a reason why I shouldn't make this change?
As far as I can tell, after a simple [c]G30[/c] triggers, RRF now moves my bed down (by 7mm = dive height). Since my next command in homez.g is a [c]G1 Z3 F100[/c], the bed reverse direction and moves closer to the nozzle - at a faster speed, which is a bit nerve racking the first time
I have changed the code so that G30 by itself can do multi tap. Only G30 S-1 and S-2 now do single tap only.
[…]
Another possibility I have considered is to keep G30 behaving as now (but possibly with a speed override), but to make G30 P0 Z-9999 S1 do "1-factor calibration" on all machine architectures, i.e. set the Z height. Then in homez.g you would do G30 followed by G30 P0 Z-9999. The G30 with P parameter would support multi tap.The release notes didn't mention any of this, and neither does the gcode-wiki. Would you mind clarifying this please?

I have updated the release notes to include the changed G30 behaviour.

Hi all,
I updated from 1.2 to 1.2.1 RC4 (direct). Updated the Duet Wifi firmware, the web server and the web control interface.
Cartesian printer.I had issues with homing ('Error: G0/G1: insufficient axes homed') and found the answer in this thread - thought I'd read through all the 1.2.1 release notes but obviously not
Anyway after adding the S2 to my G1 commands I ran a home test.
X and Y worked as expected but Z tried its damnedest to smash through my glass bed! Have I missed something or is something else wrong?

1. What are you using to home Z: a homing switch, or a Z probe?
2. What M574 command or commands do you have in config.g?

I was just looking at this - I noticed in the 'Machine Properties' interface the Z switch seems be reversed..
1. A homing switch
2…

If they are two-wire switches then it's safer to use the normally-closed contacts (the outer two on the microswitch) and set them to active high (S1) in M574. The problem with using active low is that if the wire becomes detached, the endstop will never show as triggered. This may be what has happened.
-
In the machine properties interface I can see endstop hit = 'yes'. If I then tap the switch it turns to 'no'
So the switch is functioning as expected but it appears that during the upgrade something has reversed..?
Or am I misunderstanding something?I've literally finished a print, done this upgrade and then applied the S2 changes to G1, that's all…
-
Strange, nothing has been intentionally changed in that area. How have you wired your switches - which contacts are you using? Do you definitely have only one M574 command in config.g?
-
They're two wire switches connected to the two left pins on the duet board header (with the wifi part bottom left). Is that not right then?
Here's my entire config.g. Its pretty much straight from the configurator as I'm new to all this so not comfortable changing much yet…

Ok, so if I downgrade back to 1.2.0 everything works as expected and I can see the Endstops hit = No for all axes
Then I upgrade to 1.2.1 (rc4 or 5) and all axes show Endstops hit = yes.Should this be happening? Have I done something wrong?
EDIT: I'll move this into the RC5 discussions in case its relevant
-
The Machine Properties page of DWC doesn't show the correct endstop state when you use active low endstops with firmware 1.21RC5. When it says "endstop hit" it means the input is HIGH, else it means the input is low.
M119 does show the correct states.
