@dc42 Does the PanelDue still work if the D3 is run via a SBC? not that I plan on doing it as I have found a good but cheap 7" Hdmi touch screen for the pi4 but it would be good to know.
With a SBC attached you won't be able to list files or macros on the PanelDue, but the other functions should still work.

Wiring is correct above. I was on PanelDue R1.21.something and it would not connect. Upgrading to latest, 1.23.1, and it is fine.
As expected, no file handling (I run a Pi). Everything else works. Peachy. Maybe even Peachy Keen!

i'll try that, thanks for reporting!

@dc42 ok thanks this was my guess.
If a SBC is connected then you will have limited functionality on the PanelDue.

TobiasI've been using mine for about a day now, and everything seems to work EXCEPT anything that would involve a file on the SD. So no print jobs and no macros.
The better alternative if using Duet3+Pi may be a screen/keyboard/mouse on the Pi. Or, even better, a touchscreen that emulates all three. These seem to be widely available... need to pick one!

I got this one which works well but do need to find a virtual Keyboard for the Pi
-
I'm going to give this one a try, will know something in a few days:

I've seen some posts here about different virtual keyboard packages for Pi, can't find the post right now.

@tobias_munich Excellent!
Have you found a good virtual keyboard?

@Danal

@Danal that's the same one I have!!

How is this achieved, is a Raspberry Pi required to obtain this UI?
TIA

All Duet have this UI, its called DuetWebControl and you only need a web browser (phone, tablet, raspberry pi, desktop or laptop doesn't matter). You don't need a Raspberry Pi to host it, but it is an option for the Duet 3, and the future Duet 2 boards will also support Raspberry Pi

@bearer fully understand.....I guess I was not clear. The above picture of the PanelDue interface is far superior than I currently see
How do we get that specific view on the PanelDue

Yes. This is exactly how I’m running it at the moment. The information above are all the things I followed to get it to work.

@Nuramori On a Duet3 or a Duet2 Wifi/Ethernet?

Ray -
@Kiwi3D I have used it on both, but at the moment it’s on my duet3 with a pi4

its not a PanelDue; its a hdmi screen showing a web browser showing DuetWebControl.

@Nuramori So it WILL run on a Duet 2 Wifi Running RRF?
Sorry, but I am getting mixed messages
Cheers

Technically yes, if you have a raspberry pi with a touch screen you could use the web browser to connect to the Duet wifi web interface just like you would from any other tablet, phone, laptop, etc.
The duet 3 uses the pi in a more integrated fashion, but it's still a raspberry pi and you can use the same browser and hdmi touch screen to interact with the web interface.
