Any chance this could be adapted for CNC milling,so instead of adding material, it works on removing material

Hi all

I’m currently working on a pendant for my workbee but I’m having trouble understanding the wiring from the website [https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/CNC_Pendant?fbclid=IwAR2UgtfMSKndaqPSMmajGr0cM7ckZ_YpTO2wJWTcJhvPJfYBB3U1xMq81eg#Section_Parts_needed](link url)

Do I need to cut and solder the wires from the Pendant (I have the pendant from Banggood listed on this page) to the nano pro and then solder an Extra cable to connect to the PanelDue port?

Thanks

Yes I have tried the fan in the always on terminals

@droftarts the firmware is

@droftarts said in Pwm output on Fan 0:

@Sp00kie13 please post your full config.g.

If you have no fans defined, you probably don’t have anything to disable. The main point is to type the commands in directly to the Gcode console, to check they are working, before adding them to the config.g. Are you resetting the Duet each time you change the config? Or you can send M98 P"config.g" in the console, which will run the config, and also show up any errors.

Ian

Hi Ian, I’ve taken the lines out of the config.g and then entered them manually into the console, but still nothing

@droftarts said in Pwm output on Fan 0:

@Sp00kie13 Which firmware version are you using? I'm assuming RRF 3.x due to the formatting of your M452 command.

See https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M452_Select_Laser_Printer_Mode

I've just tested this, typing the commands into the console. First, I have a fan defined on fan0, so I had to disable it with
M950 P0 C"nil"

Then, I send the following, but make sure you use use straight quotes, not curly quotes (your text above has curly quotes, using them gives an error "Error: M452: string expected")
M452 C"!fan0" Q100

This should give the response "Laser mode selected" in the console. Inverting fan0 with "!" causes the fan to come on full power. You can't control it using M106; it's G1 moves that control the PWM amount. See the gcode dictionary I posted above.

Edit: also see https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Laser_PWM_control

Ian

Thanks for the reply Ian

I assume I’m using the current version of the firmware as I did an upgrade on the board when I got it 2 week ago, so I presume it is RRF 3.x.

The reason I’m using a fan is just as a test, as all in need to know is off the terminal is putting out a signal before I try my laser

I’ve tried adding M950 P0 C"nil" To the config.g but this proved unsuccessful
I’ve also tried out putting to fan 1 and 2 without any success, although the fan did spin up momentarily on start up when connected to fan 1, but I’m assuming that this is because natively this terminal is programmed this way.

Hi all

I’ve been asked to come here by E3D to see if you can help, I’m trying to output a pwm signal via Fan 0 on my Duet WiFi.

I’ve been using a 24v fan before I attach my laser But can’t get the pwm signal to fan 0 to start.

I’ve put this into my config.g file
M555 P2;set Marlin output mode
M452 C”!fan0” Q100 ; configure fan

And I’m using M106 s255 commanding the console but But I cannot get the fan to spin up

I’ve checked the voltage readings From the pins on the board but there is no voltage change when a command is sent.

Thanks in advance for any heop

@chrishamm thank you for the help. It looks like I have some studying to do while we can’t work

Hi all.
I’m currently using my duet WiFi with a Workbee cnc router. Ooznest have a custom web interface

This is fine but ide like to alter this as it is a bit basic for my needs, can anyone let me know how I can edit this, I’ve tried my usual web editing software but because of the structure it’s not working right.

Advice and documentation would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Hi all

After a bit of guidance. I’m just starting out with a Duet 3D I’ve followed the instructions on their website and have go all the way up to web control interface, but when I try and connect through the web page, the board won’t connect. Have I missed something/ a step? It was 11:30 last night and was a bit stressed, si I can’t say exactly what I did.

Also, my machine is screw driven 1000x500 (Openbuilds Workbee 1050).I’ve looked in the sub folders of the firmware I downloaded from OOznest but I’m no sure if any of the folders in there will be ok to use on my machine ( except the 500x500 but I’d loose 500mm on my y axis) or how would I create my own?

Thanks
