Hi David,
Yes I saw that - thank you 
Looks like my best option, I just have to finish the wiring to the effector and start the commissioning process, new PLA is on it's way as well.
Have to say the smart effector is very well thought out and a joy to work with

Hi Hamel,
That's very kind - I have a 24v 40mm axial fan (as on the BOM) so I think the DC42 style one(s) would be best - pm me the details of payment - maybe Paypal?
Cheers,
Chris
p.s. thanks to all for the responses, so close to getting the printer running

I'm building the large Kossel delta (DC42 design) and it uses a 'Smart Effector' that has two fans.
The first is the normal hot end fan and comes with a fitting duct, the second is a 'print fan' that is attached to the effector with a printed bracket and shroud.
That's fine if you have working 3D printer which I don't - I have managed to make all the other brackets etc by other means but this one would take a long time to fabricate.
My question (finally ) is can I make do without this fan initially ? The bracket and shroud will be the first things I print (hopefully next week)
Thanks in advance.

Like the previous response I have used phpBB in the past and it works well. Visually I don't like the Discourse layout.
If MyBB is the only one to preserve the existing Luna data then I guess that's the one to go for. The look and feel is 'familiar' and seems to work ok.
Ok problem solved - I have been an idiot 
I went back over all the parameters and I was wrong about the spelling of the SSID - it's been a while since I set it up and I was 'sure' I knew the correct name - wrong wrong wrong, should have checked the obvious things first.
Apologies to David for wasting his time - his first comment was correct, once I got the SSID spelling right it all worked and up came the IP address of the Duet.
Good news is the linear bearings, belts and carriages from Robotdigg arrived via fedex this afternoon so I can get on with the Kossel build
Cheers,
Chris
p.s. I have at least got the latest stable firmware installed!
Hi David,
Yes, just checked the SSID is all in lower case and the wireless router (Netgear WN802T) is 2.4 GHz only and set to Channel 1.
I'm just trying again via a laptop to see if that makes any difference, I haven't plugged in the ethernet cable in to the laptop to force it to use the wifi.
Thanks,
Chris
I have a new Duet Wifi - currently the only connection it has is the micro USB.
I have upgraded to Version 1.19.2 of the firmware and the terminal shows this after a reboot:
RepRapFirmware for Duet WiFi Version 1.19.2 dated 2017-09-01
Executing config.g…M570 S parameter is no longer required or supported
Warning: Heater 0 appears to be over-powered. If left on at full power, its temperature is predicted to reach 275C.
Done!
Network disabled.
RepRapFirmware for Duet WiFi is up and runni
As part of the upgrade I changed the macro 'SetNetwork' to the following:
M552 S0
G4 P1000
M587 S"your-network-ssid" P"your-network-password"
I did set the network SSID and password for mine!
Next I ran the macro with the command M98 P/macros/SetNetwork and got the response:
WiFi module started
ok
Next I ran the command M587 to see what networks it knew about and got this:
Remembered networks:
TNCAP2FCC19
lilylink
ok
My network SSID is "lilylink" so all ok so far…
Next command was M552 S1 and I get this:
WiFi reported error: no known networks found
Wifi module is idle
I have been round this loop several times and am now stuck. The Wireless router is less than 2 metres from the Duet in clear line of sight.
Thanks in advance.
Chris
