Software bundle 3.4.0 beta 3 now available

[Aitor]

Good morning @dc42,

I'm testing the new echo functionality, it doesn't allow me to put tabulation, as shown in this example:

echo >>"config1.g" "G90 (tabulation) ; Enviar coordenadas absolutas"

Is there any way to put them, or I forget about them?

[dc42]

@aitor I'll make a note to look into this. Meanwhile, I suggest you use spaces instead.

I just tried upgrading to 3.4b3 from 3.3. Unfortunately my Y homing doesn't work correctly anymore. I have my origin in the middle of the bed, with Y homing against the minimum of that axis (-149). With 3.4b3, the machine instead thinks it's at Y0 after homing.

@diamondback post your homing files. probably best to start a new thread

[dc42]

@diamondback yes please create a new thread and post your config.g and homing files in it.

I'd like to confirm that this beta fixed an issue I had with a tool board reading very erratic thermistor values which spiked up and down constantly.

Thanks!

@dc42 The addition of stepper braking is a game changer and fixed several issues for us! Thank you. Will you please confirm the following is the correct syntax? It's working, but the example didn't show multiple motors on a single port. Thanks

M569.7 P0.0:0.2 C"0.out3"

[dc42]

@oozebot all the M569.x commands take only a single P parameter.

@dc42 Hmm.. our two stepper motor brakes are wired together. Can C"0.out3" be defined twice? Once per motor? Or am I overthinking it? Thanks

[dc42]

@oozebot assuming those motors are used for the same axis, they will always be enabled or disabled together. Therefore you need only declare the brake port for one of the motors.

Does anyone else have the issue that M122 from DWC does not produce any output on the console?

[jay_s_uk]

@diamondback that's a known issue. Duet 2 WiFi I assume?

[Diamondback]

@jay_s_uk Correct, thanks for the info
