@ComedianTF2 Yes thats was actually my first choice.
I wanted the 120Z version, but it only comes as a kit and its company policy to only buy full service machines and i wasnt trusted with building the thing myself.

also if you add the comfort features it ends up more on the 6000 side but good thinking.

@dc42 yes already printing parts

RIP delta but now i cant wait to saw it in half^^

never thought about cat cables, but that makes total sense.

i found this which looks pretty convenient.

thanks

Just to finish this adventure off.

It works now, because i managed to use my original modem in bridgemode with a new router. The printer works now with the new router as before.

@ComedianTF2 yes i suspected that much, but its good to hear this from someone else. ill dropped the temp by 10C and added a z-hop and optimized the travelpaths. lets see how that turns out.

@jay_s_uk

it s huge 1x1x1 meter machine, so it might not respomd on the normal frequencies

Hi,

today i used input shaping for the first time on a very fragile machine (modix big meter), so far everything worked well thanks to the excellent documentation and i ended up with a good ZVDD compensation at 22hz.

I still have to do some before and after testing however i was a bit suprised by how quick the testing moves were done.

I followed the input shaper plugin and it suggested one x and one y move, which surprised me a bit.
from what i can see from klipper input shaping its a much longer procedure with all kinds of testmoves in all directions, with different speeds and differently long moves.

I wonder if I should add more moves or if I missed a step somewhere, or is there a library of testmoves out there somewhere?

Can someone shed some light on how the input shaper procedure is supposed to be done?

Cheers

@droftarts awesome, thanks. seems to work with prusa placeholders. ill try that!

Hi,

I just got access to a big printer and wanted to play with selective probing, however this feature seems limited to only duet3.
I dont know the software reasons, but technically the wifi2 boards should be able to handle this as well.

Anyway would be a great feature even on Wifi2.

Hi,

i just got access to a Modix BigMeter with a 1x1m bed. Its not a very ridgid machine so I wanted to try selective probing https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/Connecting_hardware/Z_probe_mesh_bed however the machine uses a Duet2 Wifi, which doesnt have the native selective probing function.

I thought of using placeholders in the start gcode. E.g. BambuSlicer has:

first_layer_print_min vector<float> The print area of the first layer
first_layer_print_max vector<float> The print area of the first layer
first_layer_print_size vector<float> Size of the print area of the first layer

However PrusaSlicer doesnt have them and I couldnt find a list of orcaSlicer placeholders, but I dont think they will have those as well.

Can someone think of another way of dynamically changing the probing area of the M557 command?

Cheers

@droftarts I see, well then a WiFi repeater in the room where the printer is located might be the easier choice here

@droftarts great, thanks for the pic, very handy!

Hi,

I recently commissioned a ModixBigMeter and the it got delivered with the Duet Wifi, which works great.
However they decided to no longer use WiFi and bought a Ethernet Module. From what I read and saw on the board itself the WiFiModule is soldered on the board. Or at least it pretty much looks like it.
On the otherhand, why would I be able to buy the EthernetModule extra, if it couldnt be replaced?

I also didnt find any guide on such a conversion, does someone know if this is possible?

Cheers

Hi,

I just bought the Duet Accelerometer 0.2 for a Modix with a Wifi2.

The wiring guide here https://docs.duet3d.com/en/Duet3D_hardware/Accessories/Duet3D_Accelerometer has pictures of the Duet 3

The guide mentions "Duet3D Accelerometer, using the LIS3DH, designed to plug into the SPI Daughterboard header on Duet 2 and 3 mainboards."

Is that the connector that is described here https://docs.duet3d.com/duet_boards/duet_2_wifi_ethernet_maestro/duet2ndgen_connections_v1.0-1.5_d2.1.png as the "temp daughterboard"? and I directly plug it in or do I need another daughterboard for the accelerometer as well?

Cheers
