i just wanted to give a quick update, everything moves fine right now, but i could noch test ist because i dont have the tubing adapters for my chimera aqua and e3d keeps telling me it will be availible next week (for the last month)

i dipped the idex and built a 2nd printer in the enclosure (420x420x300mm) to run the 2nd chimera aqua.

that was my mistake, i thought is was a pwm fan because it has 4 wires, but it turns out to be a normal dc fan.
It works as intended by connecting the red and yellow to the + and the black to the - and leave the white one unconnected.

thank you very much

Phil

edit: does not work, i start to wonder if there is something wrong with the fan
edit2: my fault, it has 4 pins, but you can control it with the voltage combine +red/yellow and -black,
then i can just use a voltage between 7 and 24v...

Hello Everybody,

i wanted to use an fan to cool my electronics with an fan, it works but is way to powerfull (24V 1.1A),
so i am trying to control it via PWM (4pol fan)

current connection: +red and -black connected to always on fan, and pwm yellow to + of Fan 2 on DuetWifi (white one is not in use)

tried different configurations but can not get the fan to slow down
(if i unplug the yellow it stops, but cannot get it to stop or slow down using g-code or the slider in the machine control)

any ideas what to change?

regards

Phil

thank you have it working, switching on/off the colors using M106 Px I1 or i0,
added some lines to the code in cura to turn on all colors when start printing und turn off blue and red when finished (green light indicated print finished)

but i am looking for initial heating but cant find it in the config.g over the system editor.

can you tell me where to find the code for the initial heating?

thank you

Philipp

when using LED stripes they are controlled with ground (+12V, R, G, B)

are there any pins i can use to switch ground on/off with a G command?
I have the duetwifi+duet5x

as i under stand i have to use

M106 P3 I-1 ; disable Fan on duet5x
M106 P4 I-1 ; disable Fan on duet5x
M106 P5 I-1 ; disable Fan on duet5x

does it switches ground to or just the + pin?

regards

Phil

can i turn the automatic off, i use an dedicated network for my printers

in the gcode i have:

M587 S"AEPRINT" P"AUDIOEXCLUSIV" I192.168.10.3 J192.168.10.1 K255.255.255.0

i want it to connect only to this one.

thanks

Phil

Hello Fellows,

i have a big problem and running out of ideas.

After i hit the emergency button on my display it tries to reconnect to an older network.

I tried to change it with the laptop via USB (YAT) using the M578 command, but it does not help,

also i tried to change it in the gcode files on the sd card (sys/config.g , sys/config.g.bak and gcode/config.g)

i cant change it with the display because the is no " on the keypad...

maybe someone has an idea how to fix it without erasing the entire firmware.

thank you

Phil

the heaters are for the heatbed (300x300mm, the heatbed itself is 610x930x6mm Aluminium), i picked 6 so i can heat the entire heatbed or just parts of it, when printing smaller. I will check the chamber temps with just the heatbed running.
I havent really thought about the filament getting soft, i might have to run some test when warm is to warm

most of the pieces missing for my printer should arrive next week so i can run the first test.

thanks for your input

Phil

sounds interesting, i will run e pretty simular setup (2x water cooled chimera (one v6 hotend and one with vulcano hot ends)

what chamber temps do you run?
my goal is to reach about 100-110°C in the chamber,
but i am not sure how to properly set up the chamber heating system.
i have 6 silicon heaters 30x30cm with 750W each,
still have to figure out how to control them so they dont start heating on full power
when heating up or it will propably blow my fuse (standart is 16A 220V)
