Choosing a Z-probe: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Choosing_a_Z_probe

I can use Mode 0:

Select this mode if you have no Z probe. When the firmware tries to execute a command to probe the bed, it will instead show a dialogue in Duet Web Control, and also on Panel Due if you are running recent Panel Due firmware, asking you to jog the head down until the nozzle just touches the bed and then press the OK button.

I love your information packed site!

Thank you for your kind and informative response. I did not realize attaching both cables was not an option and redundant. It does work with the 4-way cable alone but not with the ribbon cable alone (white screen) so the 4-way cable is the solution.

Yes, <LF> for line ending provides for a better output indeed. The baud rates were matched. This Duet/Ethernet board is new as was delivered from Filastruder on 12/26/19. The PanelDue was from GB (Roland Lock).

M111 S0 turns of the repeating data ;)....lol

Next the config.g and how to get my x, y and z axes to zero out as need to print brackets and such in order to mount my new BL touch and filament sensor all using an Ender 3 Pro as a basic start.

The Duet 2 Ethernet board runs the stepper motors very smooth as compared to the stock Ender 3 board.

Do you recommend a better way to perform homing (new technology) /style of sensor?

I am a retired instrumentation engineer (university research) but new to 3d printing and new to G-code but will build my own 3d printer from scratch at some point.

I love the quality of your products thus far.

I finally got around to setting up my brand new Paneldue 7i and my Duet Ethernet on my Ender 3 today as I wasn't happy with its performance. I rewired all of the connections to my Duet Ethernet board and attached the Paneldue 7i to it with no control ability. The top red line says connecting...but never does complete. Baud rate is matched at 57600 in the config.g file with basic setting throughout. The Panel Due firmware version 1.22.1(28b1) shows up on the top line in the setup.

Wiring connections seem to be solid and providing continuity on the 4 lead cable and ribbon cable. I usually don't ask for assistance but I have scoured other posts to no avail. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
