Does anyone has been used duetwifi as a controller for a cnc lathe ?
I have a proxxon 250 lathe and I intend to turn it to cnc lathe.
I am searching alternative solutions for controlling it (will have 2 Nema 23) and the cad software to be used.
Anyone with experience on this ?
I want to use a rgb led strip in order to change colors according to the printing status and temp of nozzle - bed on the duetwifi (I have also connected the due2).
The input power on duet is 24v but the led is 12v.
I think that the led strip is "common anode" because it has a common positive and 3 neutral.
I have also a Buck Step Down Converter Module to reduce voltage,
What do you suggest to do as connection and what code to use ?
Is it safe to connect the positive and negative of the input of the buck step converter to the + and - of an always fan on the duetwifi and have the 3 negatives (colors) of the Led strips to the negative of the 3 pwm fans on due2 and the positive of the led strip to the positive Out of the buck step converter ?

@dc42 I connected it and everything is working nicely.
The rgb strip states 15watt per meter and i installed 1 meter.
The Buck Step Down Converter states:
Output current: 2 A continuous output.
Output power: the maximum 15W
Guaranteed 3A output load current.
Do you think is safe the installation for Duet and back step point of view ?
@dc42 Thanks a lot for your help. Then I will use M106 to set colormix and brightness ?

Is anyway Duet to notify IFTTT or sent an email in every change of print status ?
Hello,
I have connected the 3 motors of the leadscrews as on the picture:
I have as printing area X=280 and Y=300 and my config file is
584 X4 Y1 Z2:5:6 E0 ; set drive mapping test also E3
M671 X135:280:0 Y300:95:95 S2 ; leadscrews at rear center, left middle and right middle
My bed file is:
M561 ; clear any bed transform
G28 ; home
G30 P0 X150 Y290 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew
G30 P1 X270 Y95 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew
G30 P2 X50 Y95 Z-99999 S3 ; probe near a leadscrew and calibrate 3 motors
When I run G32 however the head is not moving to the correct coordinates
Home 140 150 This is correct
Rear probe 120 290 Should be 150 290
Right probe 240 95 Should be 270 95
Left probe 20 95 Should be 50 95
Why do I get always 30mm difference on X?
I tried also with M671 X135:300:-20 Y340:95:95 S2 in order to take into account the real position of the lead screws but in this case the head is smashing on -20 on the x axis.
Every time a perform G32 I get big corrections like the following : Is this normal ?
Corrections -1.521 -0.944 2.509
Thanks a lot for your help
@aidar said in BL Touch not triggering on Duex2:
I1
I did this the bed is started to move up but the pin of bltouch is not going down... So I stop the procedure.
If I test pin down pin up wit a macro the BLTouch responds correctly.
If I sent G30 again the bed is moving up but the bltouch has the light on and it does not move the pin down.
I have as home Z

@Phaedrux said in BL Touch not triggering on Duex2:
M280 P3 S160
I corrected the M280 P3 S160. I rechecked the cabling and this was an issue. Now when i run the macros Pin down and pin up it runs correctly.
But when I run the home z procedure or the G30 command I receive the error Z probe already triggered at start of probing move.
This is something to do with my config ?
Hello,
I connected a BL Touch to duet ethernet and duex2.
When i start the Duet the bltouch lights up and it triggers the pin down and up and then it stays correctly with the light on.
But when I tried to home to or sent a comment to push the pin down nothing happens..
My connections are as follows :
My config is:
; Axis Limits
M208 X0 Y0 Z0 S1 ; set axis minima

I also tried with the command without any success:
M280 P3 S160
I cannot figure where is my mistake.
Any ideas and help please ?
@droftarts
So you think that most probably it was not the wiring but the current ?
Do you think it is correct the following lines having assigned E1 to X (I assigned 600 mA to E0) ?

M671 X0:165:330 Y165:330:165 S0.5
