Web Based Configuration Tool
-
Just noticed something else. In the generated config.g there is this line
M350 X16 X16 X16 X16 X16 X16 I0 ; Configure microstepping without interpolation
Should it not be M350 X16 Y16 Z16 Enn16 etc? At least that is how the wiki seems to read.
No wonder when I change the stepping nothing works! X is always 16!

Using the compensation tab, I just noticed for my 300x300 bed, I am receiving an error stating that values must be less than or equal to 210 for probe points. Is this a firmware limit for probe points or something that needs to be fixed in the configurator?
edit: missed a config tab that fixed the issue

sga, is there any reason why you can't use a config.g file for your most common configuration, and then for each additional configuration, create a macro file that you run after starting up? The only commands in config.g that you can't override later are the network configuration commands to set MAC address, IP address etc. (which don't yet work on the Duet WiFi anyway). I even have a macro file to switch my Cartesian printer over to CoreXY mode, so that I can test CoreXY support in the firmware.
Sorry, you are certainly right. I do have my effectors on magnet balls. I have the std one working now and all parts ready for a dual vulcan, as well as a ceramic paste extruder. In the future maybe next year I will probably add more (laser) but I have no parts or clear plans yet.
The main differences between the 3 current heads will be in the geometry:
-nozzle height and number and position
-z probe height
-Extruder steps per mm or mm3 for the paste.
-max speed etc…
The only risk is to crash the nozzle by pressing the bed autolevel button before selecting the appropriate config macro.I was naively thinking a different config.h was required for every geometry but a macro library would be just as good.
Following your idea, what would be a good way to change the visual aspect of the webpage as a function of the currently selected configuration macro? ( i am thinking title, color theme, to avoid confusion)
Ideally I would put a different resistor in each effector (toolhead) and use that as a configuration selector. I have used that in the past in different projects and it was good enough up to 20 different calibrated modules.Thank you again for giving us such a nice tool to play with.

You can use the M550 command to change the name at the top of the screen to reflect the setup you are using as part of the macro

Found a bug while playing with the configurator, When the option to home all axis before running a G32 is checked, bothing changes in the bed.g file. it is identical to the bed.g file created when the option is disabled by default

Hello together
can i use the configuration tool also for the RADDS which is now implemented in the firmware?Many thanks for your reply,

The configuration tool does not directly support RADDS however much of the configuration will be common - give it a go and see how you get on!
-
The RADDS build should just ignore the commands in config.g that it doesn't support i.e. network parameters and motor currents. It's probably best to select board type Duet 085 rather than Duet WiFi in configtool.
-
A very nice tool.
The duet wifi has 2 z motors but the configurator only list one, there may instances where i want to increase power to the second z motor.
Theres no option for not using a z probe sensor.
-
The WiFi has two connectors for the z motor and they're driven by one driver.
-
Select an endstop for Z rather than a probe.

Hi,im having trouble with the online configurator.On the last step it freezes and says generating but doesnt download the files.Can you help? Thanks

Can you try another browser?
-
Yea i tryed firefox and eplorer both did the same thing
-
Do you have a popup blocker installed? If so, you will need to disable it for the reprapfirmware.org site. When you click Finish on the last screen, the links to the generated files are displayed in a popup.
-
Thanks for the reply.I tryed disabling adblock but it made no difference
-
It may not be adblock, it may be a popup blocker built into the browser. When you click Finish, does the browser notify you that any popups have been blocked?
-
It doesnt say its blocked an ad.I just disabled adblock and popup blocker and it didnt make a difference.It still just says Generating…
-
I had the same issue with firefox, internet explorer and google chrome.
Sometimes it works, sometimes not. I couldn't reproduce it, maybe it is my antivirus software (ESET Smart Security) or something like that. -
Thais exactly whats hapening to me.It worked twice randomly but now wont at all.Hmmm
