PanelDueFirmware 3.2.7 released

wilriker

I am pleased to announce release 3.2.7 of PanelDueFirmware. This release addresses two major limitations: tools with multiple heaters are now supported and also additional bed/chamber heaters will fill up unused screen estate. For detailed update information see below.

Version 3.2.7

Upgrade Notes:

This release is compatible with RepRapFirmware 3.2 or later. It will partially work with RepRapFirmware 3.1.1 but not with any older version.

Limitations

Due to the lack of RAM this build will not run on version 1 or early version 2 PanelDue boards that use the ATSAM3S2B chip.
- Version 1.0, 1.1 and earlier v2 PanelDue: ATSAM3S2B processor (64MHz, 32kb RAM, 128kB flash) - these are the ones that the new firmware probably won't run on.
- Version 2 PanelDue manufactured from August 2016: ATSAM3S4B processor (64MHz, 48kb RAM, 256kb flash). Will run the new firmware, but not as fast as version 3 will.
- Version 3 PanelDue, including all 5i and 7i: ATSAM4S4B processor, 120MHz, 64kB RAM, 256kb flash. Will run the new firmware.

Changed:

Fill left screen estate with addtional bed and chamber heaters
Support tools with multiple heaters
Reduced flickering while initialization
Bring minimum and maximum axes count in line with RRF
Respect spindle minimum RPM

Bug fixes:

First bed/chamber/tool/axis could not be removed
On 4.3" macro shortcut buttons would not show up even if there was enough space left
If more tools or beds that can be displayed were defined this could lead to illegal memory access
Fix possible memory leaks in object model representation

Known Issues:

A heater in fault state will show two-color button in light theme (magenta and green)
