      Goodie! Wasn't quite sure how well the code would copy/paste, but a little luck is always a fine substitute for careful planning and testing:)

        @chrishamm might want to consider rebuilding the DuetPi image without a default wpa_supplicant.conf on /boot, or at the very least rename it to wpa_supplicant.conf.sample or something as it currently breaks raspi-config's ability to setup wifi if the user boots the card without editing the file first. It would also potentially violate the wifi regulations as the country is set to GB.

        Maybe its possible to keep the file as wpa_supplicant.conf with parts commented out but not sure that'll work or be any more helpfull.

          Hello All,
          I installed the motors on the frame and tried to run the same test as on the bench. The x axis work well. Both the Y and Z dual motor axes ran into trouble. It seems I had best drives slip. Have to check that and also make sure the motors are moving in the same direction.
          Cheers
          Jim

            given the lack of standards with respect to colour coding motor wiring it could be they theoretically move opposite even if it looks like they're wired the same.

            the easiest way to reverse the direction if needed is to add R1 to the M569 line for the relevant axis. (ed: change S0 to S1 and vice versa in the relevant M569 line)

              Hi Bearer,
              Currently, it says, e.g.,
              M569 P2 S1... (Y1 motor) physical drive 2 goes forward
              M569 P3 S1... (Y2 motor) Physical drive 3 goes forward

              the motors now face away from each other on the Y axis
              so is it right to set up the P3 as follows
              M569 P2 R1 ????
              Thanks,
              Jim

                Changing S1 to S0 changes the motor direction.

                  Thanks you so much, I reset it as
                  M569 P2 S1... (Y1 motor) physical drive 2 goes forward
                  M569 P3 S0... (Y2 motor) Physical drive 3 goes reverse
                  M569 P4 S1... (Z1 motor) physical drive 4 goes forward
                  M569 P5 S0... (Z2 motor) Physical drive 5 goes reverse

                  also used dual M584 lines x and Y and next line for Z and E

                  It is installed in the printer framce and it works! Thanks again!
                  Next is to design the extrustion head and design something to print out as a test.

                    BTW, how does one mark a thread "SOLVED"?

                      There's an option to set ask a question bottom right. You can then mark it solved

                        My bad! Jay corrected it thankfully - too bad I didn't see it earlier, one of the issues I've found myself dealing with earlier (today)..

                          Hmmm, not sure what happened, it seemed to mark it "unsolved". How do you change it to solved?

                            FIrst it has to be asked as a question, then it changes to mark as solved.
