Thank you.

I've also just noticed something in my config.g that I thick, with looking in the dictionary ,is causing conflict. In M950 shouldn't my bed heater be H0 (H zero), rather than T0 (T zero), and my nozzle be T0 (T zero) instead of T1?

So far so good with using the ethernet, and without fully commissioning I ran a G32 once with no problems, no running a second scan for unknown reasons and no network error.
Without further testing I can't say if this was linked to the previous board, found to have an sd card issue or not.

Sorry "I thick" , * I think.

@norder

Thank you for your detailed guidance. I've tinkered with your example code, but not had a good chance to test it (I've got a lot on at the minuet).
I have had to omit the G92 Z0 in the homez as this resets the the settings previously entered for the trigger height in config.g.
I appreciate you have different z probes, and what you've sent above is an example. Thank you, It does help a lot.

I'll try and get time to test/tinker/play tomorrow, but it may be at the weekend until I get good chance to do so.

@Dizzwold

Yep, a clone Toolboard and clone Hemera.

I'm disabled, and on UK benefits due to health, so after purchasing the original and authentic Duet3 6HC, I couldn't afford the authentic Toolboard or Hemera, so please don't hold that against me. I will over time manage to afford these as original products.

@mandragora @Norder @jay_s_uk @deckingman ,

Thank you guy's, these are all very informative and valued information. This give me a lot to consider, and decide upon which way to go with this.

I've added a photo below. Sorry, I should have done this in first post so you all had a better understanding.

@Norder I already have a second floor/partition, but this directly above the "built-in" soundproof chamber. I was planning on using this as my filament storage. When I say built-in, it's breeze blocks and plaster. I've already had to strap one side with an addition joist in the loft to take the extra weight of the TecSound soundproofing and soundproof plasterboard as this was unsupported and above a stair case (it did have small notched joist, but not enough for the addition weight).

I'll have to take some temperature reading in the partition above. I suppose I could have it in an enclosure (in the above partition), and have a fan and duct in the timber above the door if needed. Then run cables to the paneldue, that will hopefully sit to the right of the door on the cable trunking.

Thank you again guy's for your time and advice.

@droftarts

Hi Ian,

Thank you again for your help and input.

I figured the above out in the end (or I hope I have).

Here is my example from the terminal. Maybe this will help others.

@norder

Thank you again for your help, I'm very grateful.

I'll have a look at the home all and homez files.

@norder said in NPN Inductive Z Probe:

This is not necessary because the G29 command that does the MeshBedLeveling has already calculated this offset.

I'd been advised in a previous thread that this wasn't calculated and had to allow for this myself, but was also told that the probe would just report "Unreachable", and continue.

I'll go and look at the files and see what I can do.

@jay_s_uk

Seriously, a big Thank you for your help @jay_s_uk .

I'm really grateful for your time and guidance.

Hi All,

So it looks like I'm swaying toward the Duet 3 Mini 5 as few have commented on. This way I can also upgrade ‘if and when’ needed.

It looks like I'll have to wait a few weeks before any more Duet 3 Mini 5's are ready, No Pressure David. LOL

I am most grateful for everyone's input and advice.

No doubt I'll be back again with yet more questions, but for now I think I have a bit of reading to do, to familiarise myself better with the Duet system.

Also any more comments and / or suggestions are very welcome.

Thank you,

Dizzwold.

Hi Guys,

I had just written a reply stating that I still hadn't quite figured it out, but I think I've kind-of grasp both your ideas, although they need tidying up they both work;

Thank you both again for your help, I'm really grateful. You have the patience of saint's.

@jay_s_uk

The thought I had was to use 6mm deep magnet and leave 2mm on top, but with your failure it maybe best just to go with the large PEI sheet.

As @deckingman has previously commented and written-up on, and currently uses, you can always use a glass plate on top.

@T3P3Tony @jay_s_uk

Hi Guys,

Thank you for that.

Ah, okay, so I'm taking the information for the sensor from the S2 part of the config.g rather than the actual board input connection "Temp1".
Edit.
Which I beleieve means changing;
M118 S{"Message to Show: " ^ sensors.analog[1].lastReading ^ " C"} L1
to
M118 S{"Temp 2: " ^ sensors.analog[2].lastReading ^ " C"} L1
Thank you again for your help and advice.

Hi Jay s,

Thank you for your reply.

I did have it wired to io_4, '3.3v' and 'in'.

I've then tried it with 'in' and 'gnd', which made it work when releasing the emergency stop button.

So I changed;

M950 J1 C"io4.in"
to
M950 J1 C"!io4.in"

; Emergency Stop
M950 J1 C"!io4.in"
M581 P1 T0 S0 R0
M582 T0

Which now seems to work.

Just found this and thought it might be handy for future use considering the wiring.

@Phaedrux said in Changed ISP:

Does it still think it's in SBC mode?

No. It just all of a sudden worked on my network on the new static ip address I'd given it 192.168.0.xxx (on Now Broadband).
Before I was with Talktalk Broadband on 192.168.1.xxx, but when I changed ISP if I typed in my browser the duets static ip address it couldn't be found. Angry ip scanner couldn't find it. I had no network leds illuminated on the ethernet connector.
Here's the result from M122 in DWC using my browser on the new static ip address;

I'm really grateful for everyone's help and input.

Thank you.

@fcwilt ,

Mmm, Lamb Tagine

@Phaedrux ,

Thank you for that. I'll read up on this.

Yes, Multiple threads from the same person and I thought it was working correctly.
I've had to remove my printer from it's enclosure (as it were), disconnect everything, so I could work inside the enclosure. I needed to quickly print a few items for inside the enclosure before I can put everything back (not realising I need to print anything before removing it all). So I've connected it all back together on my work bench.
The part cooling fan was on 100% and wouldn't turn off, the tool heater couldn't be found, machine reset, all to name a few issues when I switched it on.
I isolated this to my emergency stop button that was basically putting the printer into a constant emergency stop.
Don't ask me why, it just did, when it worked fine before???

Yep following the guide below states to use 3.3v and ioxin, not ioxin and gnd.
https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/Connecting_hardware/IO_E_stop

I'll give the ioxin and gnd a try tomorrow.

Thanks guys for your advice.

Ah, Okay...

It's not been used for around 3 weeks and the cupboard I keep it in (my printer cupboard), is usually around 15˚c if its door is left closed and not in use (possibly lower than that overnight). It's a double wall to the outside, but a very small cavity, so I've studded this with Rockwool, soundproof plaster board and Tecsound mass loaded vinyl sound proof membrane. Yes you could say this is cold, but it's not damp.

The SD card has been left in the board untouched, not nocked or moved in anyway until last Saturday 25/2/23 when I had the issues.

I'll have to take the board of it's mounting to look and take some pictures of the SD card readers solder joints, and the reader itself.

Like I say, it all of a sudden sprang back into life and I've ran a 10 hour print today with no issues?
