Great, that gives me some ideas. Thanks!

Yes they are still around and this thing is built like a brick out house. Been going like 5 years. In the past couple of months, now I only drive it on weekends, feed is getting hard. Finally the only way I could get smooth PLA prints was to up the hot end temp gradually to 270 Deg C until it tripped on high temp. So the temp circuit has been drifting down. I don't have an IR measurement to confirm but it's pretty obvious. So I replace the thermistor and no change. So which chip should I go after for input E0? A link to a schematic would also help. Thanks for reading

Or maybe better clarification.

Thanks for the reply's guys. Got it to work. Looks like the Wiki still has an outdated info about the space used in a SSID for M587:

https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M587_Add_WiFi_host_network_to_remembered_list_or_list_remembered_networks

"If a password or SSID includes space or semicolon characters then it must be enclosed in double quotation marks. For security, do not use this command in the config.g file, or if you do then remove it after running it once so that the network password is not visible in the file."

Hello,

I read that the instructions mention that the space requires quotes around it but dosen't mention how to handle the remaing SSID. I've tried several attempts but it's kicking my "but".

Ex: M587 S"Bobs Home" P"8312831283128312"

All combinations don't find any network after a M552 S1:

"Bobs"" ""Home"
"Bobs" "Home"
'Bobs'" "'Home'

I put the Wifi idle. Needed to delete my current SSID with M588. Sent SSID, PW and IP this time and it worked. Thanks for your help.

Have you on of those days where you look back and say "boy was I an idiot"? Tried my printer today and the end stops are working fine. I know I had to rush to the power switch after one of the axis wouldn't stop. Well moving on, sorry about that.

As for the M587 command I tried it under 4 circumstances and still can't set an IP:

1. Putting Wifi idle at the Pronterface command line with M552 S0. Sending M587 I192.168.1.2
2. With Wifi running sending M587 I192.168.1.2
3. Placed M587 I192.168.1.2 in my config.g before the M552 S1 command.
4. Placed M587 I192.168.1.2 in my config.g after the M552 S1 command.

So where is the correct location for this and what am I missing? The SSID and DHCP are working fine. I'm just tired of having to guess which address got leased out.

Edit: I removed the old M552 I192.168.1.2 from my config.g before trying the above.

Thanks for all the suggestions but without code that responds to my end stops it's useless. I need to figure that out first unless I need to print which will just mean reverting back to 1.17.

Hello,
Been enjoying the DuetWifi for about a year now and haven't even needed to review my config.g. This thing just runs great. In my attempt to give it a static IP I successfully upgraded from 1.17 to 1.19.2. There is a lot to read in the release notes between then and now and can't seem to find it. Probably a command change but both my X and Y axis don't stop when the end switches are detected. Probably the Z as well. As for the static address I can't seem to get that to fly either. Below is my config and my latest attempt to a static address. Any help would be appreciated.

Jeff,

It looks iike I posted this before carefully reading the documentation: "FAN1 is set up as a thermostatically-controlled fan by default. To use it as a normal controlled fan, you must first cancel thermostatic mode by sending M106 P1 H-1."

Thanks for the feedback,
Bob

I'm using M106 P0, P1 or P2 for fan output connections FAN0, 1 and 2 followed by a S255 for full on or S0 for full off. My FAN1 has no output using the command. When I reset the Duet, or cycle power FAN1 does cycle on then off. I contacted Filastruder, they contacted Think3dPrint3D, and a warranty replacement was sent. Now this new board exhibits the same behavior. I'm running FW v1.17 (2016-12-24). This is the first time trying to use this output so I have no experience with it working correctly. Can someone verify it's not a FW problem? Please advise if any other testing should be performed on my end. Thanks.

@dc42,
Good to know about the temperature sensitivity. I'll stick with what I have for now, thanks.

@DjDemonD,
Thanks for the suggestion but 2 sensors in a series configuration isn't what I'm looking for. My current hardwired solution is functioning as intended.

If I do a homing with a cold bed and hotend my inductive Z-Probe is in a slightly different position, doesn't detect the bed and crashes. I've been able to use a microswitch wired in parallel to the inductive probe positioned slightly lower and it works fine. I've seen in the example for M851 that one is allowed to use E1:2 such that an event on either E1 or E2 endstop will trigger the desired results.

Is there syntax that will allow one to use E0 or Z to trigger a homed event? Below is my current setup:

M558 P4 X0 Y0 Z1 H4 F200 T5000 I1	

If the answer is no how could one only run a macro like

home all

only if both temps are at expected values or above?

Great, thank you guys.

I've only owned my first printer, Tevo Tarantula, for 2 months after upgrading to DuetWifi. Thanks for everyones hard work, this thing rocks!

1. In Cura I'm still specifying the Prusa i3 with flavor Reprap as I did with the MKS electronics and Marlin but never had this problem. At the end of every Cura sliced prints the head remains on the print while the heaters turn off. The extruder then runs for maybe 10 minutes retracting the filament. When it completes the cold "hotend" breaks itself free from the print and returns as it should. Below is the end code of a print where this happens. I thought it was cause by the line right after TIME_ELAPSED, G1 F1500 E4941.13188, but I commented that out in another test and the problem persisted. Any thoughts how to fix this? I've tried to switch to Slic3r but I have alot of work to do with that to get the prints Cura is providing without barly any tweeks. I'm not seeing this problem with Slic3r and no responses from UltaMaker on this.
