Accelerometers
Hi,
I have a Railcore 300ZL I have been modernizing with a duet wifi board and recently upgraded to firmware 3.6. I read through the documentation regarding input shaping and accelerometers but still have a few questions.
Is one accelerometer enough or is more better? should it/they be mounted to the chassis or the printhead?
sorry I am new to this haha

RE: Problems with the Duet WiFi
I am troubleshooting the board. it would be helpful to know the expected resistance between 3.3v and ground. I only measure 53 ohms between 3.3 and gnd, which seems low, possibly a short. i have included an image. as for the end stops, i am using optical end stops, which i have wired correctly from instructions on the wiki. i can trigger the endsops manually and the board is not effected. when i run g28 however, the board seems to experience a software crash. it is very strange. it seems that it only crashes when the board is "looking" for an endstop input.

Problems with the Duet WiFi
Hello, I recently ordered your Duet WiFi control board, and I am having some issues with it. Upon receiving the board, I mounted it to the frame of my printer with four standoff screws, using the plastic washers on the bottom of the board. the screws I was using were very large and extended all the way to the white line on the PCB. The head of the bolt closest to the wifi module must have contacted one of the traces near the D flip-flop labeled 74HC74, because when i connected the board to power the flip flop blew and started smoking. the rest of the board still works fine and i can move the moters, but i cannot connect to the wifi module. I ordered a replacement for 74HC74, and replaced the part, but still the wifi shows no signs of life, besides the LED on the wifi chip lighting up. this makes the board very difficult to use with no wifi connection. another seemingly random flaw that i have experienced is that the board crashes and resets whenever i try to home any of the axis.
I was recommended to buy your board by Joseph Podgorski from Project R3d, and we have tried everything to get the board working again, but to no avail. If you could help me resolve this issue and tell me what steps i should take for repairs / returns, it would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,
