Hi, thanks.

Delta config:
Originally AnyPubic kossel linear plus, but virtually everything has been replaced, except steppers, belt, top-of-tower end-stop-sw's & 2020 profiles.

DUET3D-EtherNet
Smart-Effector + authentic E3D V6 HotEnd
Metal corners,
360W switching power-supply
SRD-100, 100Vdc @100A SSR for hot bed switching.
RepRapFirmware - Duet 2-E v1.21

I scotch taped the labels so they can't fall-off:
6 rods, grouped by pairs:

288.13
288.12

288.12
288.12

288.11
288.11

config.g:
M665 R139.7 L288.12 B111.76 H215.9 ; Set delta radius, diagonal rod length, printable radius & homed height
M666 X0 Y0 Z0 ; Put your endstop adjustments here, or let auto calibration find them

Thanks

@3mm can you post your bed.g as well please I think I know what may be happening but without that file I can't confirm

@dougal1957

Hi,

Perhaps I should also mention that when I run "Mesh Grid Compensation" web-control 'preset', that while it does generate a bed map, the graphic display depicts only the axis and grid overlay with no measurements??

bed.g (text information removed):

M561 ; clear any bed transform

; Probe the bed at 6 peripheral and 3 halfway points, and perform 3-factor auto compensation.

yep change the S3 on the last G30 line to be either S6 or S8 and that should improve things no end

Hover the mouse cursor over the grid points to see the measurements.

@dc42

Hovering over the grid does nothing.

The numbers changed! Was .109/.107 and now is consistently reading things like:
"Calibrated 8 factors using 17 points, deviation before 0.039 after 0.031"

I presume that these are better numbers than before.

There seems to have been some type of mismatch somewhere, I think it was between the config.g file and the config.json file, as I was seeing via the console, an error msg, when ever I did a calibration, being a G32 'bad command' error. I reran the RepRap wizard and the error msg disapeared. So what does the config.json file do that the config.g file doesn't? Which one is read by the firmware?

Thanks for your help.

In that image it isn't displaying a height map at all. Did that auto calibration fail?

No, that's what I've been saying. I've not seen anything on that grid in all of the runs that I've done. Its seems like its working ok?? and I'm not seeing any error messages anywhere. Both 'AutoCalibration' and 'Mesh Grid Compensation' macros run the entire process. It creates a height-map .csv file, but nothing is displayed? And hovering over it does nothing, and before I mentioned this matter...well...I tried zooming in, and out, rotating, panning. The grid is empty.

Here's the content of the most recent HeightMap.csv file that I generated today.

HeightMap.csv:

On an unrelated subject...I find it peculiar that the web 'G-Console' displays different messages than does the PanelDUE, in fact, there is an obvious disparity between the two readouts, eg, the web 'G-Console' and the PanelDUE 'Console'. It would be convenient to watch the PanelDUE 'Console' display for messages while the web-interface remains in Machine-Control or another mode.

Thanks...3mm

What browser are you using? Also, please confirm what firmware and DWC versions you are using.

[3mm]

@dc42

Hi...

Web-Browser: Mozilla - FireFox 'Quantum' v57.0 (64-bit)

PanelDUE: v1.20(15b1)
DUET-E HW v1.02
Smart-Effector v?

RepRap FW for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet
HW Electronics: Duet Ethernet 1.02 or later
FW Ver: 1.21 (2018-03-21)
Web Interface Ver: 1.15a

thanks...3mm
ps...screen grab of 'Machine-Control' page:

[dc42]

You are running a very old version of DWC. Please upgrade it to 1.21.

[3mm]

@dc42

I'm confused, I thought I had the latest Firmware...which of these two firmwares are you refering?

FW Ver: 1.21 (2018-03-21)
Web Interface Ver: 1.15a

The web-interface, presume is an internal module of the DUET-E firmware v1.21, do I need to manually update that firmware? eg, 1.15a?

thanks...3mm

[3mm]

@dc42

Also, which specific (DUET-E v1.02 HW, SAM4E8E) firmware do you recommend? I'd appreciate the URL location, so as not to make any mistakes.

thanks...3mm

[Dougal1957]

This is the link to the file you need to Download then drag the .zip file (do not unzip it) to the Upload button on the settings page of the web interface

DWC V 1.21

@dougal1957 & @dc42

Thanks guys, that fixed the graph anomally!!

What about the latest FW releases? I notice some releases at URL:
https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/tags
depict a 'verified' tag, while other's don't? What's the difference, are the un-'verified' beta or not-necessarially-stable test releases?

Thanks in advance

That is correct.
