    • RE: Help accessing Duet with hostname rather than IP address

      @westech Thanks Jay, Everything is working. I have both duets onliner and my klipper. All by hostnames.

      I think there was a problem on the DUET. Like I said sometimes it will show up as "Duet-WiFi" and some time by the printer name.

      My second Duet is a Mellow Fly E3 V1.1. It always comes up as "enderfly" never "Duet-WiFi."

    • RE: Beginner issue: storing Z-offset

      @phaedrux Thanks, I think I got it.

      What didn't work:

      homeall.g

      G92 Z-1.4 ; set Z position to axis minimum (you may want to adjust this)

      If I changed G92 Z1.4 as a positive number it would respect that in the console. Displaying Z1.4

      But I needed a negative number. G92 Z-1.4 was not respected. and would show it as Z0 in the console.


      What worked was adding:

      G1 Z1.4 F100
      G92 Z0 ; set Z position to axis minimum (you may want to adjust this)


      I am printing now and by triggering the endstop then Raising the Z Then G92 Z0. worked.

      I really like how RRF can be adjusted so easily. I'm not going to miss going into Platform.io and recompiling Marlin everytime I have change a little thing.

      Next stop the BL touch. But I know now how to adjust the Z for different bed heights.

      Thanks.

    • RE: Beginner issue: storing Z-offset

      @fcwilt Good info. On my Marlin Ender 3 with a mirror. It is perfectly trammed and I haven't had to do any adjusting. Even though it also has a BL Touch, I don't usually use it because I get such consistent prints.

      I print mainly small prototype parts I design in Fusion, so I don't usually use the whole bed.

      i mainly got the Textured PEI bed for making nice face surfaces for project enclosures. The steel plate (Energetic) is far from being as flat as my Mirror.

      I will look into the G30. I have the RRF G-code "dictionary" always open on my screen:-)

      Thank you!

    • RE: Issues switching to Orca Slicer Profiles & Start G-Code

      @droftarts I know where to copy my start and end Gcode into Orca. But I don't get the same heat up, bed leveling, then my purge line etc. Orca seems to go to the center deploy my BL touch then heats up. no bed mesh. I was asking in the big picture, is selecting any printer profile enough. The only thing which makes a printer profile RRF is switching Marlin to RRF? Which I know how to do. OR, are there other settings which need to be set to tell Orca it is RRF?

      My bottom line, is neither the built in profiles are working for me. And if anyone who uses a similar printer have working profiles or knows were there are profiles I can DL online?

      As I said, I really want to run through the Orca calibration functions.

    • Issues switching to Orca Slicer Profiles & Start G-Code

      Greetings!

      I have 3 Ender 3 Pro, running RRF. Love it. Always used Cura. Wanted to switch to latest Orca. I haven't found a printer profile that works. If anyone is familiar with Orca (PrusaSlicer). My main goal is to retain my BL Touch G29. This is probably not a RRF issue but an issue of how Cura v. Orca uses Start and End G-code. Here are my specs and working Cura G-codes.

      Ender 3 Pro
      Creality Dual Gear Extruder
      BL Touch
      RRF Duet Firmware

      Current Cura Start G-Code:

      ; Ender 3 Custom Start G-code

      G92 E0 ; Reset Extruder
      G28 ; Home all axes
      G29
      G1 Z2.0 F3000 ; Move Z Axis up little to prevent scratching of Heat Bed
      G1 X0.1 Y20 Z0.3 F5000.0 ; Move to start position
      G1 X0.1 Y200.0 Z0.3 F1500.0 E15 ; Draw the first line
      G1 X0.4 Y200.0 Z0.3 F5000.0 ; Move to side a little
      G1 X0.4 Y20 Z0.3 F1500.0 E30 ; Draw the second line
      G92 E0 ; Reset Extruder
      G1 Z2.0 F3000 ; Move Z Axis up little to prevent scratching of Heat Bed
      G1 X5 Y20 Z0.3 F5000.0 ; Move over to prevent blob squish

      End G-Code

      G91 ;Relative positioning
      M83 ;Relative extruder mode
      G1 E-2 F2700 ;Retract a bit
      G1 E-2 Z0.2 F2400 ;Retract and raise Z
      G1 X5 Y5 F3000 ;Wipe out
      G1 Z10 ;Raise Z more
      G90 ;Absolute positioning;
      M82 ;set extruder absolute mode

    • RE: Getting error from Cura gcode: Error: Bad command: -1 M110

      @dc42 Yes, I printed three versions. Like I said it printed fine. I double checked my start GCODE from Cura and no M110. Not a big deal since it prints. Just curious what Cura was trying to execute that Duet didn't like.

      So no worries:-)

    • Getting error from Cura gcode: Error: Bad command: -1 M110

      Greetings!

      I sliced from Cura 2.8. It printed fine but the console gave me this error at the start : Error: Bad command: -1 M110.M110 is not in my start or end Gcode. So not sure were in Cura I can turn it off? Any idea what it is trying to do?

      Weird, I just did a search of the gcode in GCODE ANALYZER, and M110 can't be found?

      Thanks

    • RE: G-code trouble, filament completely retracts

      @MJLew Thanks, I remember this being solved a long time ago. Your suggestion is familiar. I just thought I might look at old non retracting gcode I've printed.

    • G-code trouble, filament completely retracts

      Greetings!

      I remember this issue a long time ago. I'm using Cura. Below is my standard end g-code. I know one of the commands is not compatible with Suet. After the print completes it completely retracts the filament out of the extruder. If you don't notice, you will start the next print but no filament. What could I change or remove. Thanks

    • RE: Help accessing Duet with hostname rather than IP address

      @jay_s_uk said in Help accessing Duet with hostname rather than IP address:

      @westech I would suggest upgrading to 3.4.5+_107 https://github.com/gloomyandy/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/v3.4.5%2B_107
      and wifi firmware 1.27_02 https://github.com/gloomyandy/DuetWiFiSocketServer/releases/tag/v1.27-02
      then let us know how you get on.
      If your printer name is Printer1 then http://Printer1.local "should" work

      Thanks, Sometimes when I see the printer on the network it says "Duet-Wifi" sometimes it will say "Printer1" That's with a netwotk scanner.
