Hi, any idea where to order keenovo pads in the UK /eu please? Looking for 500x500 approx

@jay_s_uk thanks!

I'll be looking into my various posts and answers...

Re: Adding mains 6amp 240v heated bed to Duet2 wifi

Hi all,

Does anyone have suggestions on which ssr to use with a duet2 and a suitable fuse system for a keenovo bed at 6A iirc.

Decided to add heated bed to

Son.im/fusedeep

Regards Rich

Hi,

My very useful printer

Son.im/fusedeep

Is generally running fab, however it has an intermittent issue. I bumped into Tony at smrrf/Oxford and we briefly discussed it. Cheers Tony. Was a great show!

When heating from cold it will quite often bork out and the warning says;

Hot end heating too slow at 1. 2 degrees /second etc

This trips a fault and stops heating.

A pain. Need to widen the heating safety variable. There is no fault with the heater.

Also, can I run a 240v heated bed via my duet2 wifi?

Will look at my post on this when I work out how to search my own posts!

Regards Rich

I canged the z/E1 output MA from 800 to 1600 and it is much happier (0nly cost me 100gbp to not fix this!).

Seems it needed more current. will relube and see how she runs!

Hmmm

Have saved and checked the new config file and still have a weak as a kitten Z axis.

Please note, the set up worked perfectly for many months then suddenly became weak.

I replaced the entire Z stepper direct from makergear (the old z steppers were known to fail after a decade) and have checked continuity on all 4 stepper cables, all good.

This is now a new z stepper and re assigned as above, but with exact same weakness issue!!!!!!

What is the max current I can set for the duet wifi board for a stepper drive channel, maybe the z set up is stiffer and needs more power (only thing that makes sense)?

Cheers Richard

@jay_s_uk yes, no problem opening it. but when wanting to save as a congig.g file I can't see the G extension option in the save as....can't remeber what I did last time?

@jay_s_uk Thanks, I have notepad but can't find the G option in the drop down, is there a nack to it?

@jay_s_uk Please remind me how to save a config. g file, I had a specific piece of software but can't find it now!

And yes, I was awoken 0400 this morning by the wind and rain...

@jay_s_uk thanks

M569 P2 S0 ; physical drive 2 goes forwards

replace w

M569 P4 S0 ; physical drive 2 goes forwards

To change Z axis drive to E1/4 is this the correct change (it has been some months since I touched any of this stuff); Do i need to do anything else, other than move stepper plug to correct output on board?

@jay_s_uk thanks. Am running an extruder and 3 axis currently.

That would be great if there are 2 extruder outputs. Will have a look.

Hi,

After a decade my M2 showed the known fault, a weak z drive stepper (direct threaded).

I checked a few connections, all seemed fine, and ordered the MakerGear z stepper w in built screw thread from USA.

Swapped out the Z stepper... And exactly the same problem so can't print.

I need to double check the wiring proper, but if not that, then how do I check my duet board for drive failure, or, can I assign the Z to the Z/ B driver (or another axis drive) ?

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks Rich

PS.

In modern windows you have to enable view file extension in folder settings too!

In the old days you could simply edit, but they are trying to tidy up, apparently...

Really, that’s it. Microsoft may think it makes for less confusion, but the reverse is true.

//

It’s pretty clear by now that Microsoft is unlikely to see the light and display file extensions by default in any version of Windows. That doesn’t matter because you can take charge of the situation yourself and turn extension display on:

Open any folder window.
Press Alt+T+O (that’s the letter O, not a zero) to open the Folder Options dialog box.
Click the View tab.
Remove the tick (checkmark) beside ‘Hide extensions for known file types’ and click OK.

@droftarts

Yes, exactly as Ian said.

Thank you so much everyone above for your constructive suggestions and comments.

I have now stopped sobbing into my keyboard!

And written the password clearly on each machine.

@infiniteloop

M552 S0 ; sets WiFi to idle
G4 S5 ; wait 5 seconds for WiFi to turn off
M589 S"DuetSSID" P"Point6" I192.168.0.1
G4 S5 ; wait again
M552 S2 ; enable access point

I dropped this into macros folder as a g file extension

It does not work.

@droftarts

I have added;

M589 S"DuetSSID" P"password" I192.168.0.1

To my point 6 (with my password) and it won't accept the password.

Nor will my phone.

Or my other laptop.

They keep asking for NETWORK SECURITY KEYS, I don't think this is anything to do with gcode passwords and a fundamental password deep in duet that is either borked or I forgot.

It's a real problem people.

I was nervous about going wifi, and this is exactly why...
