    • RE: CoreXY vibration and noise at specific speeds

      UPDATE
      I did check for loose screws connected to rattling and I found one one the X carriage, fixed that and rattling is gone.

      Vibration at specific speeds is still a problem though and it's definitely coming from the AB motors. AB motors are rated for 1.7A each. Previously I tried lowering AB motor current from 1000 to 800mA with no change in noise. This time I changed it from 1000 to 1500mA and to my surprise the vibration at those specific speeds has calmed down a bit. Motors are a bit louder overall, but at those specific speeds there is less vibration. Anything else I could try with this new piece of information?

    • CoreXY vibration and noise at specific speeds

      Running a corexy Voron 2.4 on a DUET 2 WIFI. I have a problem where the machine gets really loud when moving XY axes during normal operation. Here is a video:
      https://drive.google.com/file/d/1aKbINvV2XIEWPy-sZN3e83ji9LzI21u4/view?usp=sharing

      • First 40mm/s right-left-right - noise
      • Second 60mm/s right-left-right - no noise
      • Third 80mm/s right-left-right - a lot of noise

      I also run a diagonal test (no video):

      • First 40mm/s front_left-rear_right-front_left - no noise
      • Second 60mm/s front_left-rear_right-front_left - noise
      • Third 80mm/s front_left-rear_right-front_left - no noise

      What I tried so far:

      • Different DUET 2 WIFI board. I was able to borrow one - no change
      • Temporary switch from 12V to 24V PSU - no change
      • Disconnecting everything but AB motors and endstops - no change
      • Connecting a different, unmounted stepper to A and B driver. It vibrates a lot at the same specific speeds - so no change
      • Different, separate stepper cable - no change
      • Lowering AB current down to 800mAh - still lots of noise

      I'm quite sure that the AB motors are the source of the vibration. I'm really at a loss on what to try next.

      This is my config.g drive setup:

    • DUET2 vs DUEX endstops

      Is there a precision difference between DUET2 connected endstop and DUEX connected endstop?
      I'm planning on running a dual endstop Y axis, first Y motor/endstop connected to DUET2, second Y motor/endstop to DUEX. Should I expect any issues with this setup?

    • RE: How to limit extruder feedrate without limiting retraction speed

      @Phaedrux said in How to limit extruder feedrate without limiting retraction speed:

      They won't become more advanced if the limitations are hidden from them. If the extruder speed is limited as you suggest, then printing speed will have to reduce to maintain it.

      I'm perfectly fine with max extruder speed imposing a limit on XY axis speeds. Car manufacturers often electronically limit max car speed to a specific value above which tires could break apart. Another example could be a combustion engine rev limiter which also in theory limits performance but also prevents mishaps.
      I want to do something similar by limiting max extruder speed to a value above which the extruder will not work properly anyway by either skipping steps or losing traction on the filament.

      @Phaedrux said in How to limit extruder feedrate without limiting retraction speed:

      Use a slicer with a volumetric limit function?

      The feature is not worth enough to warrant a slicer change just for this feature (I would lose other important features to gain this one), which is why I'm looking for a way to limit this in DUET/RRF.

      @Danal
      Are You saying that if I use M203 E600 to limit extruder speed to 10mm/s, that limit will only work for printing moves and not for retraction moves? That is what I want to achieve but from the tests I run a few months back that wasn't the case with stock firmware at the time and retraction moves were limited to 10mm/s.

    • RE: How to limit extruder feedrate without limiting retraction speed

      Limiting X and Y axis speeds is a solution, but its not perfect. As stated before, machines are sometimes used by less advanced users and there are many scenarios in which limiting XY speeds instead of limiting extruder speed will not prevent mishaps. I don't want to prevent users from experimenting with the profiles, with unlimited max extruder speed a simple layer height increase will break the profile as the extruder will not be able to keep up with the higher material flow. Increasing print speed during printing could break a print as well. In my eyes finding a way to limit max extrusion speed to a safe value without limiting retraction should should be a nice solution. I'm just unsure what is the best way of achieving this.

    • How to limit extruder feedrate without limiting retraction speed

      I'm trying to limit max extruder feedrate speed but I don't want to limit retraction speed. So ideally I would like to set max extruder speed at ~10mm/s, because above that the extruder starts skipping steps but if I do this, I cant do fast retractions at speeds of 40-60mm/s.

      I know I could use firmware retraction, but that makes retraction settings in the slicer (S3D) useless. The machine is supposed to be used by less advanced users so explaining that slicer retraction settings dont work and they have to by modified in starting scripts isnt a good idea.

      How can I approach this problem? I was thinking of modifying the code to recognize retraction moves (I'm using absolute extruder moves) and disabling feedrate limit for retraction moves but so far it's proving to be quite difficult. Is there a different way to do this?

    • PT1000 Chamber heater setup

      I have a DUET2 Eth + DUEX5 setup, dual hotends and a heated platform, all 3 temperature sensors are connected to the DUET board.
      I'm also trying to connect a chamber temperature sensor(no heater) to the DUEX5 e2_temp using a PT1000 sensor, here is my config for it.

      M305 S"Chamber" R4700 T1000 P102 X3
      

      It does show in the "Extra" tab in DWC and at room temperature the value is ~24 C Problem is that when I heat it up the temperature goes down, not up. The sensor itself seems fine, when I swapped it for a platform temp sensor(same one) it was working fine.

    • Simplify3D dual extruder starting script tuning

      Hello,

      I've got a DUET powered dual extruder (dual nozzle) machine, I'm trying to tune Simplify3D profile starting script for temperatures for it and could use some help.

      • I want to set different standby and active temperatures for each nozzle
      • I want to minimize the time it takes to start printing (so I'm setting temperature tolerance using M116 Sx)

      This is my current starting script for an ABS/HIPS profile, standby temperatures are 220/200, active temps are 250/230C.

      ; Temperatures
      M140 S[bed0_temperature]
      M104 S[extruder0_temperature] T0
      M104 S[extruder1_temperature] T1
      G10 P0 R220 				; set T0 standby temperatures
      G10 P1 R200 				; set T1 standby temperatures
      M116 H0 S10 			        ; wait for bed temp
      M116 P0 S5				; wait for T0 temp
      
      • For some reason when current platform temperature is for example 80C and I use a PLA profile that sets platform temperature to 50C it will only start printing when the temperature comes down to 52C. So its ignoring my 10C tolerance and using (standard?) 2C tolerance
      • Is there anything that could be done differently to optimize it more?
      • Can I use M116 for both nozzles at once? Will M116 P0:1 S5 work?

    • Proper approach to dual extruder workarea setup?

      What is the proper approach to configuring workarea with a chimera style dual extruder hotend?
      Right now I'm using G10 P0 X0 Y0 for the left nozzle and G10 P1 X<value> Y<value> for the right nozzle to set offset between both nozzles. The problem is that when I home X and Y (both home at left front corner, thats where endstops are located), if I start printing with the left nozzle at the left edge of the platform, when I switch to the right extruder it cant reach the same spot.
      What should I change?

    • Telnet Client

      As far as I know RRF and DUET WIFI/Ethernet currently does not support telnet in client mode, only server mode. I have a device which I want to control from DUET using telnet, in order for it to work DUET has to be the client.

      I wanted to ask if there are any obstacles other than time required for adding telnet client support? Are there any hardware or software reasons for only server mode being supported at the moment?
