I read the guide, but I'm not sure if that is also the way to direct the Duet to use the E1 controller for the second Z-axis not just for the leveling feature.
I just got back to the machine after about a year of letting it sit due to time constraints (new baby and college). Now I want to get it running again with the change.

I know it should be simple, and has been done, but I can't seem to find the info on how to define where the Z motors are controlled from. I would like to set up my BigBox so I can do the leveling and correction feature. I put one of the Z steppers on E1 as E0 is my extruder (I have a dual, but only use the one side until I do the IDEX upgrade). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@T3P3Tony:

I have updated the Wiki to include a note on the folder naming, eca77 sorry you spent so much time on this!
https://duet3d.com/wiki/SD_card_folder_structure

Also added a note about browsers to here:
https://duet3d.com/wiki/Prerequisites_for_using_the_Duet_WiFi

And this as a trouble shooting page:
https://duet3d.com/wiki/File_uploads_or_other_DWC_features_not_working

When any more information or workarounds for other browsers becomes available we can update the troubleshooting page.

No problem, it was mostly me being so new to all this and assuming things, something that gets me in trouble quite a bit when I think about it…
But actually glad that something came about from this and hopefully will help others.

@dc42:

I am glad you sorted it. For reference, you can find the required SD card folder structure here https://duet3d.com/wiki/SD_card_folder_structure.

yeah, I saw that, but figured that if the original files had the added tags that it would be allowed so I didn't think anything about it.

can't tell my wife I have spent most of the day on this and it was a simple file name change…

okay, found out what the problem was. The folder was named "gcodes-ormerod", apparently that is wrong and it must be just gcodes…. would love a slap forehead emoji right now...

which is a step in the right direction, I can edit the configuration, just can't upload anything to print.

But I just tried Firefox, I can now edit the config files with that and it saves them. Still can't see the gcodes file….

@dc42:

Our posts crossed. It sounds to me that your SD card is working OK now but you can't edit or upload files over WiFi. Is that what you are now finding? Does the System File Editor list the files in /sys, and does the GCode Files page list the files in /gcodes?

That is correct.
The system file editor now lists the /sys files, but the Gcode files are not listed in the /gcode

The card works, I am running
Firmware Name:
RepRapFirmware for Duet WiFi
Firmware Version:
1.15e (2016-10-02)
WiFi Server Version:
1.02
Web Interface Version:
1.12

I went back to the 1.15e to see if it was maybe the 1.16 beta that was causing problems.

M503 now sends the config file, which is now working, just can't edit it from the Web interface.

M122 shows me what you posted (among other things).

I restarted everything again, now things are half-way working again. I can control the carriage and heat things up, Just can't change any of the system files without uploading them from the computer. Also that is the only way that I can upload a file to print, to the system folder, the gcode folder doesn't seem to exist to the Duet. If I could get that working then I think it would be smoother sailing

Which one is stable?

1.12

Okay, so I got the board installed and started to do the configuration. Then the problems started. I can't seem to upload the files to the SD card over the WiFi, and the config files on the SD card are not acknowledged. When connecting through the Machine control of S3D it says that the config files are missing.
In the beginning the files were seen and I could click edit and make changes, but when I saved the changes nothing happened. The files stayed the same as before the editing. Then things just went down hill from there. I can't upload anything to the Duet through the Web interface, just keep getting AJAX errors, and like I said although all the files are on the SD card in the right folders nothing is recognized. I have formatted the SD card and put the folders and files back on. I have then used different cards with the same results. I am I supposed to use a certain "image" that is formatted a certain way or what am I doing wrong. I hope that it isn't my board, but I doubt that. It seems like I am missing something (probably simple) that is keeping me from finishing this install.
I accept that I won't be printing any Halloween decorations like I intended to, but I would like to do some things for my son's Birthday on the 11th!!
Thanks in advance for any advice and help.
