Dear Community,

i have a 6HC and set up a cnc machine. Now i have external switches to control several functions directly with a hot key. So for example to pause or to move.
With the G0/G1 codes i can move a axes about a specific value ... is it possible to stop this movement with another button?

So for example:
I send
G91
G1 X"max. possible movement"
G90

to move the x axes to the endstop or machine maximum. But what i can send to stop the movement?

Another question, with G10 L20 P1 i can set a Workarea, but how can I go to this 0,0,0 position again without moving each axes manually?

Thanks
Philipp

So it's working I switched the Endstop of the Y-Axis to Y Positive and inverted the endstops in the configuration.

@nightowl Thank You too!

I had to rename my homeall file because the interface tried to call the workzero file.

But i did not test it, because i am not sure if the endstops are working correctly.

When i send M119 in the idle state i became the following states:

When i press the X Endstop during sendig M119 i become the following states:

I am not sure if it is correct, it seemed to be switched?

@phaedrux Thank you for your Questions.

config.g
workzero.g

X: + to riht, - to left
Y: + moves back, - moves forward
Z: + moves down, - moves up

Dear Community, I have a Killer Bee running with a Duet3D MB6HC. I know can move all my motors and so far all is good.

In the Web interface i have at first to reference my axes. after this i can move them only in positive direction ... is this correct? So i have to bring my axes at the beginning to the other side?

And the endstop should be on the side where we do not have our home point?

I am not sure how to start It would be great to get some help.

cheers

@jay_s_uk thanks for this great link.

@nightowl after solving some other issues I made my own configuration with RRF and compared it with your config. Now i made the upload and have to wait until i am in front of my machine.

@jay_s_uk Thank You! Now I am connected and already load my configuration. In all getting started guides i found the first point to connect via usb. Your answer was greatful

@dc42 the STATUS LED was flashing once a second.

Hey community,

i know that there are already a few threads like this but they do not help me in my problem or are not the same problem.

So i have a Duet3D MB6HC Board and want to follow https://docs.duet3d.com/en/How_to_guides/Getting_connected/Getting_connected_to_your_Duet and connect via usb. But i do not see the board in the device manager and can not install the driver.

I already tried to different PCs with Linux and Windows and three different cables. The LEDs are correct.

So maybe someone has an idea for me

Thanks

@jay_s_uk
I tried to bring the right information in the configuration. On the Motors page i choose, based on some research: Forwards, X16 (on), 3560 Steps, 15 Max. Speed Change, 100 Max. Speed, 500 Acceleration, and 2400 Motor Current. I made this for all three axes the same.

I am not sure if these parameters are correct. I only could find out that i have a 8mm metric lead screw build in my Rat Rig Killerbee. I did not find the ratio ... so i am not sure if the values are correct at the end. The Speed and Acceleration Values are the default (X and Y) ones.

@jay_s_uk
great i will go this way!

@jay_s_uk
thank you for your quick response!

1 - ok i will go ahead at first.
2 - i have only one end stop build in at the moment ... maybe i can connect the same endstop to two sets of pins?
5 - https://ratrig.com/nema-23-stepper-motor-high-torque-1-8degree-step-345oz-in.html
6 - type and location ... but you already give this answer

Dear community,

i already checked a few topics and try to find my answers in the documentations. But unfortunatly i did not get all questions answered. So maybe some of you have a similiar setup or has the knowledge to help me through.

My Setup:

• Killerbee 1510
• 4x Nema 23 Motors
• Duet 3 Mainboard 6HC

My plan is to run the duet in the standalone mode at first. I have setup the cnc already and now next steps are wiring and the correct setup of the mainboard.

So, my main questions go to the RRF, i think the steps afterwards with adding some GCodes to bring the firmware to the cnc mode is clear so far.

1. I have four drivers, 1x X, 2x Y and 1x Z ... should i add an extra driver E0 in the configuration?
2. The Endstop Pin - i think i will add the same Endstop Pin to both Y-Drivers.
3. My Endstops have three cables but the connectors on the board five ... where i have to connect and what i have to choose in the configuration drop down?
4. i think the rest on the page I/O Mapping is not important yet.
5. On the Motors Page i am completly lost, what are the recommended values for my motors?
6. The Endstops i think i can find out, but maybe someone with the same setup knows already the correct configuration.

Maybe i have forgot a few important points, i know that i have a lot of questions. I would be very happy if someone can support me and help me to bring the killerbee to cut

If there is a need of more information, please let me know.

Cheers
Bowski
