@dc42 They are 1K resistors, yes. It's a common colour code, but I checked it via the Anmeter anyways.

Ok, I shall see what I can do to replace the PT100. Thank you very much!

Hello once again to readers!

I've run a mesh grid heightmap on a small portion of my "fake bed" (which is a flat block of MDF), and I seem to get a result that is super high from the axis. I don''t entirely know whether this is a G-Code problem, or a BLTouch positioning problem. Is this able to be fixed at all, like offsetting, or would I need to physically adjust something?

Completely forgot to uncomment Tool 0. Tool 0 is back on the Web Server.

@dc42 Hello there!

• The 2-wire connections already have jumpers in place (soldered)
• Unfortunately, I don't think I've been supplied a 100Ω resistor with my sensor. We may have been, but my colleague who has assembled it may have placed it somewhere, and I don't know where it is. All we have supplied are two 1kΩ resistors. I'll try to see what I can do to source/find this 100Ω resistor, then perform the suggestion you have given.
• Putting the second daughter board onto the Duex5 resulted to channels X200-X201 to still work, but X202-X207 to no longer work (all reads 2000ºC). All 10 pins are soldered, from what I can see on the other PT100 on the Duex. On the other hand, swapping the PT100 boards from the Duex5 to the main board, and vice versa, resulted to X200, X204 and X205 to work, somehow.

From my configuration:

• X200 = Heater 4
• X201 = Unknown (Which it should technically be Heater 1)
• X204 = Heater 2
• X205 = Heater 3

On my Duet's LCD Screen, I can see that Heater 1 is also on 2000ºC, meaning that the thermistor is not found on that channel. I have checked the wiring of the PT100, and they are all fine. I believe that there may be a wiring fault on the heater end, but I cannot touch that until my colleague comes back in over a week's time.

At least another thing is that the working heaters are able to function along with the correct extruder motors, which are all assigned on Tool 0 to 3 anyways. I guess Tool 0 will also work once Heater 1's channel also works.

@deckingman Hello there!

I've now done some of your suggestions. Here is what I found:

• Commenting/Removing the T and B parameters made the sensors read at 2000ºC, so I needed to keep it afterwards
• R4700 didn't do anything from what I've seen
• Commenting/Removing M303 also did nothing from what I do, so I kept it commented afterwards
• From before, I had Tool 1 assigned to Heater 1, and so on, up until Tool 4 with Heater 4. Now, from the suggestions you've made, Tools 1-3 are now associated with Heaters 2-4, and are having the correct readings, leaving me with Tool 0 and Heater 1. Tools 1-3 are visible on the Web Server, whereas Tool 0 doesn't exist on there. Adding it manually through the Tools tab, associating Drive 0 with Heater 1, just creates a new tool with 2000ºC, which I think means it's not working - At least we're already 75% of the way there, excluding the bed!

Also thank you for pointing out that Tool 2 mistype. I completely missed that.
Same with the Tool 4 shenanigans.

I do agree with you that I should define the tools from T0 to T3, instead of T1 to T4. I only did the T1 to T4 because I wanted the numbers to match, initially, so I know that they belong to each other, but I've gotten used to it now where 0 = 1, etc.

Now time to check dc42's suggestions.

@deckingman Thank you for giving me suggestions.

I'm currently not working on the 3D Printer until thursday, but I'll try to respond to what I can on your previous message.

I use the PT100s for 4 hot end heaters, yes, but the bed doesn't exist yet, so there's no thermistor installed regarding that.

Anyways, I see! I understand that X200-X203 are for the PT100. I do have a Duex5 board with it, but I was unclear on what the X204-X207 channels were.

I'll hopefully respond back on thursday for updates on your suggestion. Thank you very much!

Hello to whoever reads this!

I've currently managed to setup my Duet to self calibrate itself pre/post-printing, but now, I'm working on aligning the extruders and heaters at the tools list. I've had a browse online but I've only got bits of information that were useful to me.

My setup is a CoreXY Printer, with 4 Z-Axis via 4 leadscrews on all corners, along with 4 separate extruders and 4 heaters/nozzles, for whoever may be reading that has a similar build.

I'm using a double-stacked PT100 Thermal Sensor, and, from what I have obtained online, they use the channels X200 to X207.

My problem is that I cannot get Heater 1 to work (shows 2000ºC). 2, 3 and 4 are currently assigned to X200, X201 and X202, leaving me with 203-207 for Heater 1. I have tried using trial-and-error with X203 to X207, yet the sensor still detects 2000ºC. Heaters 2, 3 and 4 are working, along with their desired temperature values. May I have some help on how I may be able to solve this on the software side? Still unfortunately very new to this.

Here are sections of my config.g for how my tools are configured. The Bed isn't configured as of yet.

Thank you for your reply! I completely forgot to re-name the file inside the sys file for the WiFi Server, previously, so it never managed to install it at all.

I have reset the board once more and performed the M997 S0:1:2 for the complete reinstall.

I'm currently trying to load the web server, but it's taking a long while to load up. Once it's fully loaded up, I'll have a check on its connection reliability, so you're also up-to-date with the information. I hope this does

Is it normal for the Duet Web Server to take ages to load upon first boot? Everytime I do M552 S0 and S1 now, it times out while trying to connect, unless I've done S1 twice.

[EDIT]

Ok, I found out why my web server was taking ages... It was because my phone was updating apps in the background, hindering the local tether bandwidth. I've disabled it now, and the web server loaded instantly - so at least that's sorted.

[EDIT 2]

So far, no disconnections have happened. It's been connected for nearly 10 minutes now, which broke it's old record of an uptime of 30 seconds, so good news as of now. I will create an Edit 3 once I have further analysis.

[EDIT 3]

It's been connected for over 30 minutes now! That's done the charm! Now it's time to sort out the configs for the printer, then I will work out on how to connect it to our office WiFi.

I just separated the <LF>s manually so you can see it more clearly, but that's all that the lines give me. I notice it saying DuetWiFi 1.02, but I really don't recall even touching that version on the downloads list. Does that mean that I've forgotten a file and it didn't install when I did M997 S0:1:2?

@dc42 Do you perhaps know how to split the lines on YAT? M122 only separates them with <LF> but keeps on going the single line. It now says that I've run out of bytes.

1: Yes. I know all of the used IP addresses on the network, and our Duet is connecting to an unused IP. It was initially done, not specifying an IP address through DHCP, but it still doesn't appear on our office router. Since it never managed to connect to it through automatic means, I entered manual numbers, which still doesn't appear to run the Web Server.

2: It's a small office WiFi network. The router we're connecting it to doesn't require the corporate login.

3: I shall report to you what M122 states. I am hoping that it's both at 1.21. I'll reply with the M122 results in a few minutes.

There are only two problems right now though:
1: It cannot connect to our office WiFi
2: It connects to my tethered phone, although it drops after 30 seconds, after successfully connecting, so config.g is inaccessible from the timeframe that it's active.

Hi guys! New to the forum.

Setting up our large scale 3D printer, using the DuetWiFi with the Duex5 extension. We had some trouble connecting it to our office network (WiFi connects, but IP address that's stated on YAT and console doesn't exist on our network), and I tried to connect it using M587.

To remove and add networks, I do M588 S"" and M589 S"", then I re-enter the network IDs through M587 S"XXXX" P"XXXX" Ixxxx Jxxxx Kxxxx. I reset the WiFi module M552 S0 and S1.

On the other hand, we connected it to a tethered phone, through the same means, which worked, but the Duet Web through my local 192.168.x.xx IP disconnects a few seconds after it's been connected to the board.
On the LCD screen we have, Console is saying that we are experiencing a "WiFi reported error: incomplete write".

Can anyone please advise on what to do, since it seems like we're going around in circles with our current process.
