      @dc42

      hmm, i guess this is a stupid question, but I am unclear

      1. where to put these lovely scripts to load the file.

    • RE: Extruder Won't Load

      yes it is
      the temperature shows up on the DWC associated with tool 0,

      here is the code in the config file
      M563 P0 D0 H1 F0 F1 ; tool 0 uses extruder drive 0 and heater 1
      G10 P0 R0 S0 ; Set initial tool 0 active and standby temperatures to 0C

      one more thing the unload will work but the load will not without the error about temperature

      What about controlling part cooling fans?
      Here is my printer - (with failing paneldue)

    • RE: Simplify3d firmware configuration file

      I have the config file more or less under control for the duet. I is the firmware file for simply3d. *.frm. There is an export/import option in S3d firmware configuration. (located under tools).

      I have a 400x400x600 unfortunately all of my axis designs are a little different from any build out there. Looking at it, it looks like a corexy D bot build. However the x & y use a "zipper" belt drive. This is where 2 belts face each other in a raceway to provide rack and pinion type of control, only with belts. It is very fast and accurate over long distances and avoids, long complicated belts.

      The z drive uses 3 12mm threaded rods driven by one motor to move and the plate is held on a frame that provides rigidity by 4 sets of wheels that run inside the post of the open builds v-slot frame. The open builds frame has panels attached to the outside to form an enclosure, with thermostatically controlled fans.

      I am using E3d V6 hot end with bowden Bondtech QR extruder. One head at the moment, though I have a dual print head carriage. I have a part cooling fan also.

    • Extruder Won't Load

      The error message says that the hot end is not hot enough. But according the web control panel, it is hot enough. What g-code could be confusing the extruder?

    • Simplify3d firmware configuration file

      I am just trying to get started printing but I am lost in the weeds a bit, on the gillion setting and macros. Does anyone have firmware configuration file for the duet that is already tuned up that they would be willing to export for me, so I can import it.
      thanks

      I am not clear about the need for macros, for things like part cooling etc.

    • RE: Issue #2. Randomly reversing and not working Z steppers.

      Also I forgot to mention be sure your motors are correctly wired, incorrect wiring will have the same symptoms as broken wires.

    • RE: Issue #2. Randomly reversing and not working Z steppers.

      We had this issue, basically is one of these...
      Don't forget to power everything off while plugging and unplugging!

      1. Its the motor itself. - take the load off and see if the behavior continues, swap another motor to see if its the motor.

      2. Its a break in the wire, probably direction. Use a continuity checker to confirm no breaks in the wires

      3. its the driver, Hook the same motor wire to another axis and test. -- don't forget to change all the power and speed settings for the test axis.

      In our case, we had one motor that was just plain bad, hard to imagine, but i guess occasionally it happens. We also had one case of a broken/loose wire.

    • PID autotunning on heated bed

      I have a large 400x400 aluminum plate bed with a silicone heater run from an SSR.
      I have autotuned my hotend, but my bed heater will not get above 80C. Then it stalls. It gets hot pretty fast but as it approaches 60 is slows down.

      Here is the code from my config file

      ; Bed Heater H0
      M301 H0 S1.00 P32 I0.1 D93 T0.4 W180 B30 ; Use PID on bed heater (may require further tuning)
      M305 P0 X150 ; Configure thermocouple for heater 0 - Bed heater
      M143 H0 S140 ; Set temperature limit for heater 0 to 140C

      I commented out the override from the overide config file.

      ; This is a system-generated file - do not edit
      ; Heater model parameters
      ; M307 H0 A90.0 C700.0 D10.0 S1.00 V0.0 B1
      ; M301 H0 P10.0 I0.000 D200.0
      M307 H2 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 S1.00 V0.0 B0
      M301 H2 P-1.0 I0.482 D51.4
      M307 H3 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 S1.00 V0.0 B0
      M307 H4 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 S1.00 V0.0 B0
      M307 H5 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 S1.00 V0.0 B0
      M307 H6 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 S1.00 V0.0 B0
      M307 H7 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 S1.00 V0.0 B0

      Any ideas
