Duet2 WiFi : No WiFi without SD Card

Phaedrux

Integrated means that the LCD and the PCB are integrated together. The non-integrated version has the PCB connect to the LCD via a 40 pin connector, that's all.

So try flashing this firmware: https://github.com/dc42/PanelDueFirmware/releases/download/1.23.2/PanelDue-v3-7.0-nologo.bin

@elmoret The boards have come out of box with the 8-bit colors. Notice I did not upload a bin for the new one?

I also now suspect the boards are not at fault, but the Duet2 WiFi may be.
I only even got a replacement because I was told previously in this thread, the LCD may be defective.
If you review this thread you will see for yourself.

@phaedrux Thanks. That is helpful to know why some people call the 7i and other do not. Now I know the terminology that you typically can't find via Google about these boards.

So yes, my setup is a PanelDue 7.

There's a bit more information on the PanelDue here

and here

If you flash the bin I linked above and it's still having color issues we can work from there.

The standard file for that display/board combo is https://github.com/dc42/PanelDueFirmware/releases/download/1.23.2/PanelDue-v3-7.0.bin. But you can also use the version without splash screen that @Phaedrux linked to.

People only arrived at that conclusion because you repeatedly stated that you had a PanelDue 7i.

As for how they came out of the box, sounds like someone in the supply chain (perhaps Spool3D) is flashing incorrect firmware. But that's fixable without replacement hardware, of course.

Why do you suspect the Duet 2 Wifi is defective?

dc42

My guess is that the PanelDue controller board has the 5" firmware on it, which is how they are programmed during manufacture. Running 5" firmware on a 7" panel gives incorrect colours.

@elmoret Thanks fo rthe model type clarification.
All good now. That no-logo bin file took care of it.
I only suspected the Duet2 WiFi starting today when the replacement LCD had the same result out-of-box.

I just got off the phone with Darek at Spool3D. They don't flash the hardware, seems Duet shipped with V1.21.1. Darek also says they have 5 more 7 inch LCD's still in stock and will update their site stock.

Anyhow, all good now.

Sorry if I got testy with anyone, that's me getting a bit stressed. Terminologies are not always consistent between Chineze clones and "real" hardware

I love the Dark 2 colors scheme on the LCD with the 1.22.1 firmware build.

DennisHall

@dc42 Sorry if my photos in this thread did not show the controller board separate from the LCD.
The issue was my lack of knowledge of the model type between my 7 and a 7i.

The no-logo bin file took care of business and Spool3D also now knows they are receiving their PanelDue models with the 1.21.1 firmware.

DennisHall

@phaedrux Thanks man! That was the right bin file for (what I now know is a PanelDue 7)
Your summary made it obvious.

Really appreciated.
