@droftarts @Phaedrux Thank you, this fixed the issue. For anyone coming here in the future, you will also need to change the z probe point in homez and homeall, and mesh probing will start in a different corner unless changed.

@droftarts How's this? I think I marked all the things that need changing, but let me know - still new to all of this. I'm afraid to use the configurator or to update firmware b/c I made a bunch of changes to GCode manually that I don't think will be maintained.

config.g homey.g homeall.g

@deckingman @droftarts Thanks for your reponses, it sounds like I could change the end stop to be in the high positions, and then also change the direction of the Y motors, and ensure that the homing file is properly set up (make sure it moves Y up instead of Y down) then everything would be fixed.

Or....

I could stop screwing around in the config file and just mirror my prints in Cura when it matters. I realize that may sound sacrilegious, but I think simpler may be better in this case.

In response to your comment about Modix, yes, they probably could help us. However, I am a summer intern, and they are on the opposite side of the world so they never respond during working hours so I have been reluctant to reach out. I have also been more of the attitude that I should just work things out myself and rely on open source forums rather than depend on them to fix my problems.

@droftarts The origin for the printer is in the back left. Can be confirmed by sending G1 X0 Y0. In Cura, the origin is in the middle of the bed (though I don't have that option checked in machine settings, and turning it on and off seems to have no effect). The thing that confuses me is that I think all my axis are moving in the right directions because they respond to G1 commands as I would expect.

Also - I posted another question a couple of days ago and you answered it. You guys on the forum are the best!

Hi, I'm having kind of an odd issue where my prints come out mirrored from how they show up in slicer. This may be more of a Cura issue, but I searched around and couldn't find anything, so I figured I'd try here. I use Cura with a bunch of other (non duet) printers with no issues, so I'm wondering if Duet may be interfering somehow. When I put something in the back right of the build plate in Cura, it prints in the front right. Text and threading is also mirrored (I discovered this issue when something threaded went on lefty tighty and righty loosey).

Running a Duet 2 WiFi with firmware 2.05 (yes, I know it's old) on a Modix 120X.

@droftarts I do have a PanelDue 7i and I connected it with both wires (a 4 wire for PanelDue and and 8 wire for SD extension) as explained in the directions you linked, but I'm a bit confused about what goes on the SD card. The machine didn't boot properly with the main SD card (with config file etc) in the PanelDue. Am I supposed to put a second SD card with gcode in the PanelDue slot and leave the main SD card in the back of the machine?

@jay_s_uk I just dug up some old firmware that is compatible. Thanks for your help in getting things running! This is my first time with duet and oh boy has it been a learning experience.

@jay_s_uk I did not use m552 S2, but that enabled the network. Now I can connect, get to the the interface, but I get stuck on connecting... indefinitely. I see an error for incompatible firmware. Do I need to update? I'm on 2.05 (yeah, I know it's old) and I was hoping I could use the web interface to update.

@jay_s_uk I tried setting up access point mode from the instructions below but am having no luck
I can't find the network on my laptop or iPhone. I'm using the following commands:
M552 S-1
M552 S0
M589 S"Name" P"**********" I"192.168.0.1" C3

Any Suggestions? I do have a screen attached, but it refused to read the SD cards I tried.

I have a duet 2 WiFi and long story short, I can't use it via WiFi so I can't access the web interface. Is there any reason I couldn't just upload my gcode to the macros folder on the sd card and run full prints from there?

Long story long, I work at a company with very strict IT security protocols and they aren't being super cooperative about getting the web interface online.
