    • RE: CNC style Pendant

      I set up a CNC pendant using DC42's excellent sketch. I felt it was missing something though.
      With the support for 12864 displays for DuetWifis being added in 3.2 I set about a modification to the design.

      alt text

      Luckily there are enough wires in the stock CNC pendant cable to support this so I just needed to make a small loom using some breadboard at both ends.

      alt text

      Works like a charm

      alt text

      Made some hangers for it:

    • RE: Sanity check of my PA values

      Well, I just did the same. Ditched the Bowden and went to direct drive. 0.11 PA and much better prints. I should have done this ages ago rather than fighting with the bowden.

      Thanks.

    • RE: Preview version of CNC optimized DWC.

      @Sindarius The work edge finding in the Workbee panel is a set of boxes you can fill in that automatically generate and then fire macros based on user input. It's very reliable and easy to trigger / configure. If this new version of DWC could do that then I would switch in a heartbeat as there are many functions of the newer Duet firmware I'd like to use but cannot due to needing the older 2.x based version to support the Workbee WC.

    • Input Shaping page has incorrect links to Input Shaping plugin

      The page here: https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/Tuning/Input_shaping_plugin
      The link to the Input Shaping plugin points to an older, beta release rather than the current release. This generates a 404.

      It points to: https://github.com/Duet3D/DSF-Plugins/tree/dev/InputShaping and https://github.com/Duet3D/DSF-Plugins/releases/download/v3.4.0/InputShaping-3.4.0-b1.zip

      Ideally it should point to: https://github.com/Duet3D/DSF-Plugins/releases/ so any new releases are automatically linked to.

    • RE: Preview version of CNC optimized DWC.

      @hagrid I've made some macros to deal with the xyz probe. Just need to edit for your different tool widths. I mainly use 6mm and 3mm end-mills so this works fine for me at the moment to have 2 macros. If I have an oddball sized bit then it's only 10 seconds to adjust the macro.
      Admittedly, it would be lovely to have the Workbee style probe as a plugin but for the minute, the benefits of the newer firmware and this DWC outweigh the loss of the probe functions.

      If you want me to post the macros I can do so tomorrow when I'm in the workshop.

    • RE: Tuning extruder jerk when using an LDO Orbiter

      @oliof Right. Could be. I'm going to have to go back to basics and tune it all from scratch, ignoring the numbers that the Orbiter reckons are right.
      Thanks for that.

    • RE: Tuning extruder jerk when using an LDO Orbiter

      OK, last night I changed it to 1000mm/min for jerk and other than my print time dropping drastically and my accelerations looking like they did before, I couldn't see anything bad as far as print quality is concerned. That was printing at 120mm/sec. No funny noises from the extruder either.

    • Tuning extruder jerk when using an LDO Orbiter

      Hi all
      I've recently changed my extruder on my large CoreXY from a BMG to an LDO Orbiter. So far so good except my acceleration is now being limited by pressure advance and extruder jerk.
      The recommended value for jerk for the Orbiter 1.5 is 300mm/min which is really low. With the BMG I was running over 1500.
      My PA is set to 0.055 which is pretty close to where it was with the BMG (0.06).

      My question is, does anyone have experience with this extruder and setting jerk values above the recommended?

      I see there is a new version 2.0 out that pushes this up to 600mm/min but I can't for the life of me find any information on why the 2.0 can have higher jerk than the 1.5 when the motors are largely identical and the gear ratio is roughly the same too.

    • RE: Help with a tool setting macro

      @dc42 Yes, it's essentially a switch wired to an endstop.
      Will look at G30 but I'm guessing that I need to run the G30 on my first tool before probing the XYZ=0 of the stock.
      Thanks. Will have a play later.

    • Help with a tool setting macro

      Hi all
      I'm using a Duet2 to drive a small CNC machine (PrintNC) and everything is good. I'm looking to make toolchanges easier and so have added a toolsetter. This is alongside my current XYZ work 0 finder.
      I'm struggling to get my head around how to make a macro that will update tool lengths.

      My Z homes to Z max

      Ideally my workflow will be this:

      Home machine
      Jog machine above XYZ probe
      Run my XYZ find 0 macro - which works fine and sets work 0 in WCS G54 system 1

      Run tool length macro which does the following:
      Move machine to the tool setter
      Probe against the tool setter to establish my baseline tool length - which I'm assuming will be 0 offset for the first tool

      Do some cutting

      Tool change
      Probe against the tool setter with the new tool to establish the delta between my original tool length and this new tool
      Apply offset to WCS so that Z=0 is in the same place as it was initially

      Any help greatly appreciated.

    • RE: duet wifi cnc??

      I'm running a CNC with Nema23s from a DuetWifi. It works well. I've got my drivers set to 2.3A and am using active cooling with heatsinks on the chips. I've not noticed any issues after 100s of hours of milling.
