Problem with setting working coordinate systems
-
2.01 contained some fixes related to offsets, and the reporting of offsets to DWC. This MIGHT be related.
Try upgrading to the very latest 2.02 RC2.

Hello,
unfortunately the update to 2.02 RC2 did not solve the problem. Any other advise?
Regards,
Marc
Now:
Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet
Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later
Firmware Version: 2.02RC2(RTOS) (2018-09-07b2)
WiFi Server Version: 1.21
Web Interface Version: 1.22.3 -
@mwinterm I'm the one partially to "blame" for having WCS support in more recent firmware. While I have not written the code, I'm one of the more vocal users of Duet boards with CNC routers/mills. So far, I can't see the problem that you are reporting, but there are two relatively minor differences. I'm on stable firmware:
Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet
Firmware Electronics: Duet Ethernet 1.02 or later
Firmware Version: 2.01(RTOS) (2018-07-26b2)
Web Interface Version: 1.22and I use separate G10 L20 P1 macros for X/Y and Z.
I have used the stable firmware quite a lot recently and had no issues, apart from my mistakes, with WCS.

@Catalin_RO You are not to blame at all as I'm happy about all the functionality for CNC that is already around.
I first tried to separate the command for X,Y and Z as you do and then also downgraded to the stable 2.01. Both things unfortunately did not change anything of the described behavior.
I'm wondering if this could be related to my configuration which however is pretty basic appart from joining two stepper for the Y axes:

I agree, the behaviour is wrong at present. I'll put a fix in the next 2.02RC.

Thanks! Looking forward to....
Btw I modified the Fusion 360 Post for Mach3 to work with the Duet. Runs pretty smoothly for me.
If useful for anyone the post can be found on

I also would like to write a generic macro to set the current WCS i.e. doing something like
G10 L20 P1 X0 Y0 Z0
without having an explicit reference to WCS1 but instead just applying it to the current WCS. For setting the tool offset this possible by just calling
G10 Z0 instead of G10 P1 Z0.
However leaving the P1 away for the WCS gives me an error.
Annother little thing is that the tool-numbering in the gcode calls as well as in the web-interface starts with 0 whereas on the PanelDue the first tool has the number 1.

Marc

@dc42 Thank you very much for the modifications! I've just tested them and they work perfectly for me

Thanks for confirming this.
