@OwenD It cuts at about 40mm to 50mm a second with little to no dross. Subscribe to me on youtube for a full build video coming soon.

@dc42 Thanks for the quick reply! Alright, sounds good. I'll wait for that one to be released! If ya need a beta tester let me know

Cheers!

Hello all,

I've been using the Duet3 6HC plus a 3HC Expansion board since Nov 2019 and loving it. Its running my 25 cubic-foot DIY 3D Printer/Plasma Cutter I built called the Autocrafter and it works great for both 3D Printing and Plasma Cutting (with an external Torch Height Controller). Soon to be a router too

The motors on my machine are hybrid steppers because they have built in encoders. Now "hybrid" may not be the right word because its just a regular 440oz nema 23 Stepper paired with an encoder but that is what I've been calling them "hybrids".

I'm very curious about the M569.1 seems like an integration for encoder feedback and "I think" I have all the hardware to take advantage of this feature but... I cannot find any information on it besides the RepRap Wiki https://reprap.org/wiki/G-code and the https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M569_1_Stepper_driver_closed_loop_control both have the same very limited info.

Is M569.1 for encoder feedback handling?
Does anyone know how to setup M569.1?

Specifically anything on wiring would be awesome.

Cheers!

Hi,

I'm new here (I hope this is the right place for this post) just thought I would share... This is not a bug report just my odd experience getting a Duet 3 Expansion 3HC board heaters working.

The boards booted up nicely and I was able to connect via DWC. Ran a few tests, motors, endstops. etc... but when I got to Heaters they reported "Offline" but the senors reported room temps. After few hours of tweaking configs and wire changes and I was able to track down the problem.

Turns out that the temp sensors must wired to the 3HC and not the main Duet. Then it worked fine.

Or maybe I'm just not doing something, that is total possible. 0_o

Cheers!
