Perhaps this will help. I had network issues in the beginning.

How does the external input manage the stop, feed,retract?

Using this scripting process you could make outside lines to have special accel/jerk and keep the non visible prts at max speed

Juat read the scripting and add the gcodes for each part

Thanks for the help! Okay, sounds like trial and error it is. I asked as there is a section in the Wiki that has not been filled in about tuning stuff.

I have discovered one thing that I should have been obvious. You cannot use DWC to move the motors to see if there's any change in speed unless you change the move speed in Settings-User Interface-Machine. The default speed is limited to 100mm/sec.

Thanks, I realized I was just using the wrong IP address to access the Duet Wifi. And I realize now that the DWC lives on the Duet, not on the PC. It has been quite some time since I set this thing up and I struggled with it a bit. 🙂 I guess I should probably attempt to update the firmware and all. I first need to reconfigure Simplify3D since I lost all it's settings when I lost the laptop. 😞

Your config.g file should have a M501 command near the end, which causes config-override.g to be run. So the values in config-override.g override earlier settings in config.g.

That's correct.

I thought I put the bed standby temperature in 1.15c but maybe I was wrong and it's in the 1.16 version that I will soon release as a beta. I'm just waiting for some help with translations of the captions and messages to different languages before I release it.

The BOSSA releases page has changed. There is a .tgz file for the Windows release, which if you extract it contains just bossac.exe, but no GUI version there at present.

Glad that it's coming together!

Babystepping as marlin implement it sends a specified number of extra step pulses to the z motor driver per turn of the encoder wheel. So it's coordinate-system independent, instant and in the latest versions theres a readout on the Lcd to say how many millimeters you moved, which you can use to set a permanent z offset in firmware or your slicer.

This is what we need really, it's tried and tested. If reprap firmware wants to steal a march on marlin then and option to save the offset for the next print would be a wonderful addition. Perhaps into the new configuration override file.

I accept that if you have a really precise, reproducible printer and you don't change it much then you set the z offset once and then just use it. But if your printer isn't that tight, or you're testing things or change nozzles a lot, or hot ends this can save you hours and lots of filament.

Whenever I edit the config.g file and do a software reset, I am not getting any message in the g-code log. Any idea why? Most of the time, the heaters will shut off and I assume the config.g edit was saved.

Another way is to download all of it as a zip file via the clone button.
