    • RE: Error when opening source files on KiCAD

      @t3p3tony hi!
      I just managed to get it to work.
      I downloaded the master zip file, unzipped everything and went specifically into the expansion breakout board folder to open the project and everything worked like a charm!
      And of course, it only worked perfectly on KiCad v4.0.7, as it seems they have changed the schematic library portion in the latest stable release, v5.0.1, which causes missing links for components in the schematic.

      Thanks again for the quick replies and assistance!!! 🙂

      By the way, may I know what is the difference between v1.0 and v1.1 of the expansion breakout board?

    • RE: Unable to turn on heater

      That works like a charm ❤ Thank you!
      1 more question: Can I use a heated print bed without a temperature sensor? If yes, how can I set it manually? I can't do it through the RRF Config Tool.

    • Unable to turn on heater

      Hi, need some help here. I'm using my old delta printer and changing out the board to Duet. I have updated to all the latest firmware.
      Motion of the axes is fine already, and now I'm testing the heaters.

      In the RRF Config Tool:
      88a0870c-763d-4b69-8f70-615d2cc38ee8-image.png

      Trying to set it up now and I'm facing this issue:
      451ac289-62fd-4fa7-9cf1-4db8d5705f76-image.png
      So basically, I can't manually turn on heater for Tool 0.
      Also, on the DWC, Heater shows as n/a

      I did try Output: e0heat (inverted) and the heater works. It heats up immediately, and the Temperature Chart reflects the temperature increasing. But heater is still "n/a".

      Am I missing something here?

      Not sure if this is needed but I've included config.g here:

    • Disable Power Saving on External Drive

      Am I right to say that the drive will be disabled right after homing? If yes, how can I disable this function of disabling the drive?

    • RE: Z-Probe

      Sorry if i was being confusing.
      It was 2 separate issues.

      First issue:
      I have set up for 1 Z-probe and initially it was working fine (i.e. Z-probe was set as P1 in config.g).
      I did change other stuff in the configurator tool but I didn't change anything about the Z-Probe but starting from some point, the Z-probe was generated as P2 instead of P1.
      The code in config.g was:
      ; Z-Probe
      M558 P2 H5 F120 T6000 ; Set Z probe type to modulated and the dive height + speeds
      G31 P500 X0 Y0 Z2.5 ; Set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height
      M557 X0:1050 Y-1040:0 S20 ; Define mesh grid

      Second issue: I have defined my Z-axis homing with a limit switch to the "High End" but consistently my homez.g was as follow:
      ; homez.g
      ; called to home the Z axis
      ;
      ; generated by RepRapFirmware Configuration Tool v2 on Fri Feb 22 2019 13:32:37 GMT+0800 (Singapore Standard Time)
      G91 ; relative positioning
      G1 Z5 F6000 S2 ; lift Z relative to current position
      G1 S1 Z1062.35 F1800 ; move Z up until the endstop is triggered
      G92 Z1 ; set Z position to axis minimum (you may want to adjust this)

      ; Uncomment the following lines to lift Z after probing
      ;G91 ; relative positioning
      ;G1 S2 Z5 F100 ; lift Z relative to current position
      ;G90 ; absolute positioning

      Initially I was really fresh to this whole 3D printing, Duet, Reprap and all these G-codes. But now I'm starting to understand better and so I know where to check for problems, and I can make the adjustments, so no big issue.

      Hope this clarifies my confusing post earlier.! ^^

    • RE: Z-Probe

      uhh, it's ok! I figured. in Config.g it should have been M558 P1 but the configurator generated it as M558 P2 😞
      Been having quite a bit of issues with the codes generated by the configurator actually. For example, homing my Z axis to the high end, it moves the Z towards the high end but sets the Z position to minimum after homing.

      On the DWC, under Z-Probe, previously it was just "0". Suddenly it has become "0 (0)" and when I put something near the sensor, the reading becomes "0 (535)", and my Z-probe doesn't stop.

      Any hints?

    • RE: External Heater Question

      After checking back with my dad, he wants to do it such that we will connect the bed to an endstop. We will then manually switch on the heaters and when the temperature has been achieved, we will trigger with an "on/off" to the endstop. Is there a specific Mcode/Gcode that I can use in my gcode to detect this signal on the endstop and inform the duet to start print job?

      Is there any way to set pulse width from the DuetWifi?
