Hey Chris. Thanks for taking the time and being thorough in your presentation!
Thanks David! You bet!
Another excellent video! I’ve got two Duet powered machines. The flexibility of the system and support from Tony and David at Duet3D are top notch! Videos like yours are needed to help people learn about the basics with Duet and RepRap Firmware.
Thanks John! This board is really impressive I have to say.
Just wanted to say "Thank you" for an extremely helpful video. This was huge in making me feel confident enough to undertake the duet upgrade to my machine.
Awesome Alan, I am glad it was helpful.
Looking forward to the review and comparison video on the boards. Great job.
Thanks! Comparing boards might be tricky. We will see what I can come up with.
Thanks Chris! This will be so helpful when I finally get my X5S assembled and running. The Duet WiFi is certainly on my bucket list.
You are very welcome Ron! Thanks for watching and supporting me on Patreon! It is a huge help.
Sure - glad to help in some small way!
Subscribed based only on your 10 second intro! Didn't waste my time, explained your topic, and made me smile -- what more could I ask? Oh yes, on-target content. Well done.
Ha! Thanks Paul! I like to make videos that I would watch. "Just get too the info I need to know. "
Chris, Thank you, very well done! You answered some of the questions I had. Looking forward to more vods like this; in depth but explained so the average person can grasp the ideas.
Thanks John! Many more to come, these are the kinds of videos I like doing the most.
Your passion for the technical aspects of the electronics/ software shows. I have a firm grasp of the hardware, but am now to the software side. Thi svod is on a short list of "watch later" for when I need help.
Thanks for the How To; look forward to the review or comparison once you have used it for a bit!
Thanks Ali! We will see what I can come up with.
As always Chris this is a fantastic resource for anyone wanting to try something new. I'm in the process of building my own printer and thanks to this video I'll now use the Duet board instead of the Ramps board I was planning on using. Thanks again and keep up the great work.
Thanks! That Duet board is awesome! It's so quiet!
Great guide, the only one that explains very well how to configure a DuetWifi, I just hope not to mess up.
Thank you
Thank you! Good luck!
I haven’t even watch the video yet. I somewhat impulsively purchased a duet to Wi-Fi. I am so stoked to find you already made a video about it. If it wasn’t for your videos I would’ve never had the confidence to set up my auto print servers, and I don’t think I ever would’ve attempted configuring a main board myself. Thanks for helping me step up my game.
Awesome Lee, good luck on your Duet build.
thanks man you save to me more then 24 hour of searching to configure out web how set up this board
very helpful video
keep going
You are very welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thanks Chris i have just got one and finding your video very helpful keep up the good work
Thanks Russell! Glad it helped out.
Ur channel is so underrated
Thank you!
God this is so much easier than configuring marlin! It’s literally worth the extra $70+. This is a really really good tutorial thank you.
Thanks for watching, just starting out this is much easier for sure.
Thanks for the Video, i was looking for how to config a duet wifi to replace my Ramps. so glad the first one i chose had the config for a tronxy x5s(my printer) i followed along and will give it a go when i receive my new board.
You're welcome! Hope the config helps.
Thanks Chris - great explanation
You bet! Thanks for watching!
Great video and curious to hear your thoughts and comparison after you have time with it.
I hear ya. It's a pricey jump, but a very cool board.
This was perfect, I've been wanting to do that upgrade to my TronXY x5s!
Awesome! It makes the X5S almost silent.
You upgrade yet..
I am working on upgrading mine now
Thanks Chris, Am about to fit Duet with your config to FLSun Cube using your set up plus fixed ip.. will tweek it from there.. nice vid mate
Thanks man!!!
@@ChrisRiley Have you any input as to using the original 12v bed on a 24v supply?
@@bobleach2741 You could do it, but I think that one is 12v only, so a buck converter would be needed.
I'm currently building a custom printer based around the Duet2Wifi board. I've got the Z-axis/bed moving up and down, the next step is getting all the parts printed/fabricated for the X/Y-axis.
I have to say I love just messing around with the Duet's interface even though I can't print anything yet. I also have a 7" PanelDue and I really appreciate that it has a g-code console with virtual keyboard built-in. Makes tinkering/tweaking so much easier.
Those little panels are awesome, gcode terminal right on the screen is sweet!
Thank you for such a useful video!
You bet! Glad it was helpful.
Excellent video!!!!
Thanks Jay!
Thanks for the great video! Just a quick question on the way you configured your manual z stop. I assume you used a microswitch. After you configured it that way, did you then plug it into the z-probe pin or did you still use the z-endstop pins? It just mentions you should use the z-probe pins in that configuration
I used the endstop pin, but things have changed a bit since I did my install. They have made a lot of updates recently.
Excelent video! I'd like to know if a duet 2 can control a heatbed running on 127V with a SSR?
Yes, you should be able to just cable up the SSR to the existing heatbed terminal.
You took the 32 bit plunge :)
It's a brave new world my friend!
Hey Chris,
love watching all your tips and trick and I"m now taking the plunge and got my Duet 2 wifi. Do I need to get new cable for the board since my Tronxy X5SA doesn't have the same pin connectors?
The Duet will come with some connectors, some you might be able to reuse. Thanks for watching!
great tutorial! thanks
Thanks Jon!
Thanks Chris.
You are very welcome!
Hi Chris,
How did you configure your dual Z steppers?
Did you connect these in series or configured another stepper output to drive each stepper independent.
Best regards
Thanks for joining the stream today! I just used the second Z axis plug on the Duet, my guess is these are setup in serial.
Thanks for a great tutoral Chris (c:
Just a little thing I do not understand:
In Resurrect-prologue.g.
G28
Then Z will drive up to 0, it might break what the printer is printing ??
That is true, it could. I wish I could have tested that more. Every printers resume will probably be different base on the configuration. I hope to build a printer I can test this feature on soon.
Thanks for the nice video! I am fairly new to diy building 3d printers, but right not i developed a 4-coulour printhead, and I want to build a 3d printer around it. The duet wifi seems like the best choice given the expansion board and 32bit, but im not shure how to set it up with "4 extruders" (technically its 1 extruder that can be filled with 4 different filaments at the same time).
So when i make the setup, do i just enter 4 extruders instead of the 1 you entered?
I would be really glad if you had some tipps on how to do this:)
Thanks in advance:)
Ha, so you have quite the config here. So 4 different motors? If yes, then you would enter 4. I would have to know a little bit more about your config.
Thank you for the video. Do you have an video showing how the cable connections are made on the board as well. I just need clarification on how to connect 2 stepper motors, controlling the same axes (z axes most likely), to the mainboard.
I don't, but Z should have 2 plus cabled in serial. Both your Z motors will go on those 2.
Good job Chris! Are you gonna show us the X5S with duet?
Thanks Stephen! I do show it a little in another video that you will see, but now very much. I was only on that printer about 5 days before I decided to stop working on it. More projects for the Duet will be coming soon.
great videos Chris! for some reason i understand your videos much better than other you tubers. do you have any advice if i upgrade to a duet and make it 24V? i know i need a 24v hot end and heatbed, my printer can only accomodate a 220x220 heatbed. what 24v PSU should i get? I have been hearing about AC heat beds but i heard duet would be enough to power a 24v heatbed. thanks!
Thanks! Yes, a 220x220 the 24v should be fine. Check out MeanWell power supplies, around 30amp. The only really trick is with the fans. If you run 24v, I think the fans have to be 5v.
You could just keep your 12v fans and get some mini buck converts, I have a couple that are about the size of a quarter and work great. But I'm only stepping 12v to 5 and 3.3v. Might run a little hot on 24 to 12v but I suppose if you mount them with a heatsink and near the fan.. Problem solved.
Great video. I’m thinking of upgrading my ender 3 board. I need a video explaining the adv of upgrading to reprap firmware over marlin
Thanks! Since Duet kinda took over it's hard to tell what is actually going on inside Reprap. There is good and bad to both Reprap and Marlin.
Thanks again for the great videos.
I have installed the Duet WiFi on a self designed cartesian printer. I have a issue with skipping steps and have incrementally increased the amperage to the stepper motors. I started at 950 as per your recommendation in this video, I am up to about 1400 depending on the axis and still get the occasional skipped step but am reluctant to increase power input anymore than I already have. My movements are nice and smooth with little resistance. I'm curious if this is due to the stepper drivers on the Duet WiFi, what do you think? What do you think is a good maximum current that would be acceptable?
I am not really sure on the max on the Duet. Are you running 12v or 24v? What type of motors are you using?
I am running 12 volt, the duet is capable of 2500 but I am reluctant to go that high. I'm concerned that I am missing something in the big picture so to speak. My stepper motors are nema 17 with 1.8 steps/mm @@ChrisRiley
@@leifaroni Yeah, that sounds kind of high. Does your stepping and everything look correct? 1/16 micro stepping?
It is set for 1/16 micro stepping. When running the steppers do warm up some but the ambient air temp is low and I have not done any printing with an enclosure on to see how the steppers would heat up.
@@leifaroni Crank it up a little more I guess. I would be curious what the actual output was reading.
Chris I need help with this Artemis. I want to do a “Filament Change” in Prusa style... you know finish moves, maintain temps, move away from print, extruder and retract and reload?
Yeah, I think we can do that. I will have to grab some info and mess around with it a bit to get it dialed in. SEEmeCNC, doesn't have anything like this in there build?
Hi Chris! This may be a stupid question, but is it worth going 32-bit yet? What're the benefits of doing so?
Also, thanks for the video!
It really just depends on what you are working with. We will all have to go 32bit at some point, but standard cartesian printing doesn't require it. Unless you want to go really fast. Faster printing means faster gcode processing.
Im waiting for my Duet2 Wifi v1.04 and i really hope i can get this to work on my Creality CR-10S, because this is kinda confusing stuff. So much config, config ,config :(. But you really know your stuff Chris, so i just have to watch this video a couple of 100 times ;)
Good luck! I am sure you will succeed.
Hey Chris if you don't mind answering a stupid question for me. Let me first give you a little history. I bought a Printrbot Simple Metal back in 2016. The micro USB broke and they sent me a new F6 board. I used this for a while as I am 50 and have other things to do being a dad, husband, son and brother. In short life happened. I just started printing with it again and broke the micro USB again. Printrbot is now out of business. I purchased a new Anet A8 in early 2017 and just built it on August 30th this year. I had to resolve an extruder issue and broke the threaded tube that goes through the hot block to the extruder. I'm waiting for parts. Meanwhile while I was printing with the A8 and trying to dial it in, I ordered a Creality Ender 3 that just arrived yesterday 9/12 and I haven't put it together yet.(remember life, Oh yeah.) So I tried to purchase a little board that plugs into the Printrbot's F6 board to power a screen to use it computer free, sort of like the A8 and Ender3 but that didn't work either. I'm trying another thing first. Now finally to my question. Can I replace the F6 board with a Duet or another board? Thanks, Frank
Hey Frank, I have all the parts to build a SM except the board. I think the board swap out can be done, we just need to find one that will fit in the case. Also, the screen might cause us some issues. I hope to get back to mine sometime soon, so we might find out together.
Could you also do one for connecting the hardware to this beauty?
Thanks.
Sure, I can give it a try.
Did this ever end up happening?
A huge thank you for this video. I have installed a DUET 2 Wifi to a X5SA Pro and have everything working except for the smart filament sensor I substituted. I have tried many times to figure out how to configure this in the firmware but need a little help please.
No clue how it works, but may others have had issues with it as well. Some day I hope to get one to try out.
Hi Chris, thanks for the guide, I'm having hard time with homing, I've got the very same printer Tronxy X5S, set the axis min and max but when I do the manual Home the motors of each axis X,Y and Z don't stop when they hit the switches, in my case to home X i had to offset it a 25mm instead of 15, whilst Y was fine with 15 and Z at 30 still I can't find a solution. What could it be?
Sounds like maybe the endstop inverting it wrong. I would grab my code and compare it. Maybe you can find some differences.
@@ChrisRiley Thanks for the fast reply, I couldn't find any difference in your config, but to be sure I tried to load your whole config and it's still the same, can't complete the homing because the endstops (that are in the same position as yours) aren't working as intended in the firmware...
That's really odd....your Duet might have a newer version of firmware than mine.
cant wait to get my duet 2 board to arrive.. looking forward to get it up and running on my tronxy x5SA printer, but i have to find out how to connect and configure the sensor for bed height and autoleveling..
They're are very nice boards. It shouldn't be too hard. It will plug in to the z min endstop pin.
I have a x5sa configured with a duet 2 maestro and I don't think the web configuration creator has(had?) options for the inductive sensor type. I could be wrong but I ended up changing it in the config files. You should read the documentation on the zprobe for duet.
Something worth keeping in mind is that the mounting screws for the bed can cause spikes in the induction sensor over the base aluminium plate, and cause some strange looking spikes in the fancy 3d bed level view. I just changed the bed level to scan a smaller area that avoids them.
Also you should be sure to set the probe offset so you don't ram the hotend to the print surface because it's outside of the aluminium bed.
what about a Proximity Sensor? is that supported?
@@nimeq Great tips!
@@ulven75 Like IR? I think you could make it work.
Great video first off. I am in the process of building my printer and will be using the duet 2 wifi. I have heard that you can't run octoprint on reprap? I want to be able to monitor my print as with the creality camera does. Could I just connect it the same or would it not accept it and have to reconfigure the firmware? Thanks
Hey, you should be able to use Octoprint just fine. It works for me.
Would you be able to show me how to wire two of them together to make a quartet?
Can't you just print your own main board?
Hi chris,
The Z end stop in your printer is at the top, if I use g28 after completion of print it will go up,
If I want the build plate to go down after print automatically how to do that?
You can do it in end gcode if you like. I don't know how big your printer is, but if your Z is 200 you can do something like this. G1 Z200 F500
what a super video Chris..👌👌
i like all your Videos...
Can u make a video of Smoothieware? how to setup and config??
and also which 32bit board u recommend to start with? Im currently using arduino firmware and ramps 1.6 board.
Thanks so much! Smoothieware is kind of on it's way out. I recommend looking at a re-arm board. They will work with your RAMPS shield. Take a look at today's video.
@@ChrisRiley yes i watched that video. Thank-you so much !! wiil surely try it !!
It took me a while. But now I'm ready. I want to do it. Been talking about it for a looooong time. I want to upgrade a Prusa / CR10 style printer with 300mm x 300mm x 300mm that I bought over two years ago. I can't ad a bed leveling to it as it's closed source, and the machine is extremely loud when printing. But it's a rock solid construction. All axis run on linear rails.
Which board would you buy today? I have no clue. I'm an absolute beginner. I will need you help when I set in up.
Hey Cat, sure, anything you need just let me know. Do you have a link to the printer you are going to upgrade so I could take a look at it? Do you want to go Duet? Are you interested/need wifi connectivity?
@@ChrisRiley I've wrote you an pm on Twitter
Great video. Very clear, thanks.
So is it possible to configure this board without an internet connection?
Thanks! Yes, but it's messy. You basically have to get into the terminal/SD card and type in the config by hand.
@@ChrisRiley Thanks for replying. I've been over to the Duet forums and they seem to think it's no problem to use this board over a local network - no internet required. Which is great! These Duet boards do look like the best platform. I'm gonna be making full use of your video here in short order :D
Hi Chris, i have now got my duet 2 wifi, and with good help i managed to connect all the cables. I also got the z probe to work.. home all axes works fine.. but i would like to set up autoleveling. Maby i can set it up as a macro and run the autoleveling manually, or should i start every print with a autolevel command?
Lets ask Walter how he does it, he has 2 of these setups.
Here is what Walter at Kuntry3D says. "I run the bed level G29 then in my start gcode I have G29 S1. That uses the map that is created with G29. You may have luck with running G32 I however on the Tevo do not."
hey Chris thanks for the video! Something was still unclear to me . i have previously used klipper on this board maybe that is the case should I use a firmware.bin to get it back to normal? it doesn't seem to work after i put all files from configuration tool
On the duet board you will probably have to return it to factory to get it back on REPRAP. Check this out. th-cam.com/video/UPu7_RPE1d0/w-d-xo.html
@@ChrisRiley Thanks alot, i got it working by flashing new firmware with bossac software. Now everything is up and running just have to do a test print. Was kinda hard to wrap my head around the whole reprep comming from klipper but it actually wasnt to different once you work with the config.g file. Your vids helpet out a ton, much appreciated. Keep it up 👌😃
Hi,
Great video..
I have an Tronxy x5sa that i want a better board to, will my cables fit to a duet 2 board? and can i still use octoprint with the duet 2 board? I am using Simplify3D to slice and upload to octoprint, can i still do that if i switch to this board?
Thanks! Octoprint will still work for sure. I have tested that. The plug on the other hand, they really should be switched to the type that Duet gives you with the board. You can make it work as is, but not a clean solution.
Thank you, sounds like a sollution for my printer to. Do you use Simplify3d to slice the prints for it?
@@ulven75 I do not, I use Slic3r.
Thanks for the informative information it's great help.
Had my Duet WiFi 2, for 2 years never used.
Does anyone know what the usb cable is?
Because it's been so long my original cable has gone missing.
Mine has a micro USB on it. I actually use an angled one like this. amzn.to/480bIRs Link takes you to Amazon affiliate.
Thanks Chris it is a micro USB.
Hi Chris, good video! I'm planning on using Duet2 on my Sapphire Plus. How would you deal with two Z home switches? Thank you.
Not sure on Duet/REPRAP I have never tried that config before.
I think it would be the same way as a indipendant Z axis. Duet has an article on it.
Chris great work! Can you also make a video on klipper firmware?
Thanks! It is on the list.
Hi Chris, regarding the resurrect gcode, you included G28 ; home all, this will crash the Z axis to your existing print before the power loss right? I think it should only be G28 X Y, I might be wrong, just a newbie :) Thanks for the videos!
Nevermind, already answered 1 year ago lol
No worries! Yep, probably don't want to home.
Thanks for the video! I'm trying to get this board going on an Ender 5 pro and I can't seem to find any videos :( any idea where I can find some help?
I am not sure on the Ender 5.
Hi Chris, I thank you so much for the info! I am building my own core XY using Duet board. In case I face any difficulty, how can I contact you?
Hey Bryan, you can email me. brotherchris81@gmail.com
Am I ok to use a 24v psu with duet 2. I’d have thought there would be a jumper to select voltage but I can’t seem to see one.
I would look through the documentation, but yes, you should be able to run it at 24v just fine.
Chris Riley thanks. I’d taken a look through but couldn’t see any mention of a jumper. I’ll drop the guys an email to be sure!
@@Davvyk I have a Duet 2 Wifi working on 24V, no jumpers on a i3 style setup. But do note that things like your heaters and fans will also run on 24v.
Where did you get you motors steps per mm from and if they were forward or backward. I've got an X5SA PRO and a Duet3 on the way so could use a little help with these parameters?
You have to calibrate them, check this out. th-cam.com/video/r0GiAmZiQBE/w-d-xo.html
@@ChrisRiley Hi Chris, Thank you for your reply and the link, very grateful.
I didn't mention before that I had nothing but trouble with the Chitu firmware regarding the steps per mm, then when I went to flash it with marlin, well I bricked the motherboard.
So I have no idea what settings to apply for the X, Y and Z steps per mm. Will the X, Y and Z step be the same as in the video?
I've tried Tronxy, but because I've been critical of their motherboard and mentioned the Duet, they won't reply. I have the X5SA Pro 330 x 330 x 400
@@darrensimms8761 More than likely you X and Y will be 80 and Z will be 400.
Is there a way to link duet wifi with octoprint? I had Gen L board with octoprint...bl touch, neopixel led, and a power supply plugin to turn printer on and off.
I upgraded to skr 1.3 but couldnt get everything. I'm think of upgrading to duet 2 wifi. But I would like to still use octoprint and a few plugins.
Sure! You can cable up USB to Duet and it works just fine.
Hi Chris is there a way to get the duet experience on rpi and skr board? I really dig the ease of config files and duet Web interface
Not currently without changing the board out. Check out this one. th-cam.com/video/956z_XINp68/w-d-xo.html
@@ChrisRiley i just stumbled on github.com/gloomyandy/RepRapFirmware/wiki
Ive got a 7inch lcd, rpi4 on the way to connect skrv1.3 with tmc2130s. I have almost no experience with rpi but It looks promising!
So i have a creality 10s printer and im following along untill you get to the part to add my config into the sys folder after taking out sd card. i cant get any folders out of the sd card.. it just says reflash. not sure why i cant see any folders when ths sd card comes up in my pc. no macros gcode or nothing. do you think you can help me get this going.??
Not sure what is up with the card, you might try rebuilding it. duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/SD_Card
Is running octopi with the duet just not a thing? I cant seem to find much about it! I really like the flexibility of octopi when it comes to plugins
Hey, octoprint actually works well on the Duet boards. Just plug it in USB and it will work the same.
if i use the usb to upload g-code will it work that way or do i have to plug in the sd card directly?
You can upload Gcode directly to the onboard card with the web gui.
Hey Chris, any chance you'd consider doing a comparison between the Duet/RepRap ecosystem compared to say an SKR 1.4/Marlion2.0+Octoprint setup? I'm currently in the market for a new main board for my printer (TronXY X5s) and am trying to figure out what makes the Duet boards worth ~$100 more than a Marlin 2.0 setup.
Sure, that sounds like a pretty good idea.
@@ChrisRiley Thanks!!!
@@ChrisRiley also, any idea why more board manufacturers don't use RepRap over Marlin? Everyone who uses RepRap claims that it is far superior to Marlin, and if that's the case, since RepRap is open source, why isn't it more dominant in the 3D printing community
@@nathan1sixteen That one is a somewhat easy answer. Before Duet scooped it up, the REPRAP development had almost come to a halt. Nowadays really the only board supported is Duet.
@@ChrisRiley ah, gotcha. So kinda like how Slic3r was basically abandoned until Prusa started developing it again.
So, like, do you think the community will start swinging back over to the RepRap side of things (atleast to the extent that more than Duet boards will run it) now that it is beginning to rapidly mature (some would even say to the point where it has passed Marlin), sorta like how Slic3r has started to make a comeback with printers like the Ender3 even having default profiles included?
Sorry if I'm bugging/annoying you. You don't have to keep replying. While I have owned a 3d printer for over 5 years now, I have never really dove into the firmware side of things before now.
Hi Chris. just installed a duet wifi on a tronxy x5sa. i cant seem to get the motors to move. i use a microswitch for z. but it never hits it it just moves slightly . then x and y seemed to be locked in a battle when i try to home them
Hmmmm...that could be a lot of things. I wonder if your motors are different than mine. I would get into config.g and try and reverse the endstop and motor direction to see if you can get them moving.
Want to try out Duet and Reprap at some point, but a bit pricey. Know anything about how good/compatible the Fysetc clone is?
I don't have any experience with them. Check out Walter over at Kuntry 3d, I know he has one.
I'm haveing hard times with homing my ender 3 x y z axis. I can't figure out how to make motors stop when they hit endstop triggers.
Are you setup like this?
; Endstops
M574 X1 Y1 Z1 S1 ; Set active high endstops
I bought a predator Anycube. However I want dual extruder single nozzle. Would this board make that happen?
Yes, it would support it. It has 5 onboard drivers.
hello chis this video was a great help but I'm still having some homing errors. For some reason my z endstop probe functions for both my x axis homing and z axis homing and i cant figure why
Functions for X and Z? I am not sure what you mean.
I have an Anet AM8 with stock motherboard. I been seeing people using RAMP 1.4 and I was wondering which motherboard would be better. Duet 2 WIFI or RAMP 1.4?
Duet is going to be the better board for sure, but maybe overkill for an AM8.
Chris can u change the wifi to a set ip in the config file I don't like using pronterface if I dont have I have my board set to the point where I can get connected to the duet web interface and I want to setup my board to use a set ip instead of the switching one
You can, but it doesn't pull it in on every boot. This would work though, give it a try.

Thanks Paul.
hello i'm new to 3d printing i just got an ender 3 and im wanting to know if someone can please explain to me the difference between OctoPi and DUET 2 wifi? maybe a few pros and cons of each if they do the same thing
Octoprint doesn't drive your printer, its just monitoring software. Duet is the full package. I drives the printer and enables you to control the printer via wifi.
I rebuilt my sd card and now im having issue with updating to latest firmware in the guee. when i download 3.1 firmware and install it it seems to work fine. then it asks me to install it when i do the green progress bar shows it installing but halfway through my duet cards wifi light goes out like it disconnects. the progress bar finishes. then when i start up the board again it shows it didn't take the firmware update... Need your help and thanks again.
I am not sure what is going on here, it might be something with the new firmware. It could be a bunch of different things. I would try an older version of firmware, then get a hold of Duet.
TheTronxy x5st -500 does not print graphite filaments. By upgrading to a Duet main board and maybe upgrading power supply and a micro swiss hot end will it print graphite?
Do you have a link to the filament you are refering to?
@@ChrisRiley The filament is a nylon with chopped carbon fiber added. i should have called it carbon fiber filament. The printer bed temperature will be higher than PLA. and the print head temperature also. The extruder nozzle will need to be changed to a wear resistant construction. I have machine tools, and producing parts that are 12" or less is not all that difficult, however when parts that are larger dimensions are harder to achieve and measure. High performance filaments becomes more important.
@@thomaswehrmeyer9641 Yeah, I think with just a steel nozzle you should be able to print carbon fiber-filled PLA.
Hi Chris
great videos
i recently installed a duet3d 2 wifi in my cr10s pro and it works great
now i am trying to connect my palette 2 with octoprint on a pi4 to the duet but it always come up with errors
would you have tips and tricks to make it work
thanks for all the great videos you make
Duet never seems to work with USB very well. I'm not sure how you would go about getting the Pallet to sync with it. You might run that by Mosaic support.
the wireing layout of the tronxy x5sa pro is different on the motors and the end stops sadly.
Seems like these change all the time.
Do you need a Raspberry PI for the webgui to work?
Nope, it works right on the board.
Is there any different between Clone Duet wifi and the original due wifi???
That I don't know, I do know someone getting ready to try a clone Duet. So we should be able to compare them soon.
Hey Chris what do You think.... Is possible to upload the prusa mk3 firmware to an ender 3 yo use the crash detection And recovery ?
PD My ender have a skr E3 v1.2 (tcm2209)
No, that firmware is only going to work on a 2560 processor I am afraid.
@@ChrisRiley but the mk3 not use 32bit microprocesor?
@@Lucas_sGarage The ender uses a 128 processor.
@@ChrisRiley i fited a skr E3 V1.2
@@Lucas_sGarage Yeah, the MK3 uses a 2560 8bit.
I use server battery backup units on my printer, and if the power goes out I can print for quite a long time before it shuts down.
Sweet!
I've got my D-Wifi all connected but it seems that the homing is not right.
When I hit home all , it moves a slight bit and stops, then it will not move anywhere else, If I power down, and move everything to end stops and set everything to zero then it seems to work. If I hit home all, again, it messes up again... Are my steppers wired wrong?
It kind sounds like it thinks the endstops are triggered all the time. Try flipping the logic and see if it does anything different.
Hum, didn't think about that one, I was thinking it was the motors, so if its moving left with left arrows by 10 then most likely the motors are correct? Good idea, I will try tonight and let you know how it works out. I really appreciate you responding.
well, part of the problem was I went and tried a custom set up thinking I knew it all and made things worse. Yeah, I started reading up on the endstops directly and got them to light up then I changed back to I3 Duplicator custom profile that someone provided and then it all came back to life, I had originally used it but didn't work properly either. Anyways, I'm back to homing properly. After that, my extruder is now acting up and won't push filament through, seems like it is clogged. Two steps forward one step back.
I feel that if a few days possibly I will be back to printing.
Please can you do a video setting this up on the ender 5?
If I get and ender5 I can look into it for sure.
@@ChrisRiley That would be great. They are actually on sale directly from creality on aliexpress
How you home Z axis if power failure, doesnt it hit the print?
It's basically luck depending on your printer design. To be 100% successful, you would need some Z rods that can't be back feed. Like some TR8x2
I have ZRIB V6 Motherboard. when I connect my power supply motherboard won't power on, but from USB motherboard power on. I check my power supply and it works perfectly. I can't seem to find a problem, any idea?
Strange, is there a vref jumper on that board?
I just looked, there seems to be, make sure its set to VREG.
How can I configure the duet to be sensorless homimg?
Add this line in config.g
;Stall Detection
M915 X Y S10 F0 H400 R4700 ; X / Y Axes
@@ChrisRiley Tnx! I'll try that
I want to setup up one. Have to save on one of those & that lcd screen. And I need a printer that I can set it up on. Don’t want to rip apart any of my existing printers. At the moment I don’t even know how to tune an extruder. Lol 😆
Thanks for watching Cat! They are pretty nice boards, a little pricey, but once you get them configured they seem to be trouble free so far.
Nice controller board, but you'll need to have good understanding of the working of cnc devices. Not very easy to configure all options..
You really don't need a screen, it'll work fine from any Android phone or tablet thru it's webinterface
Chris, I really like your videos, BUT could you use a lapel microphone or something better? It is really hard to hear you, even with the volume all the way up. Keep up the great work!!
Really? Interesting, I seem to peak out a bit most times, I will see what I can do.
Had no trouble hearing you
Hi how would you program the board if you do not want to do it via WIFI?
That's a good question and I am not sure. I think you can just mount the SD card on your computer and move the config over.
@@ChrisRiley Ok great Ill try that. thank you so much for responding fast.
I am absolutely stumped on this one. Even with M550 set and no M551 entry in config.g, I get prompted by a login to the web interface. I've tried every combination of setting M551, not setting M551, using the entry in M550 as the username and as the password, and vice versa...the web interface Will Not Let Me In. I've even wiped the SD card clean and reinstalled everything. Nothing works. Suggestions??
Hey Greg, it might now re-pull those commands from config.g. I would connect up serial with something like Pronterface and run those commands by hand.
@@ChrisRiley Thanks for the response, and it wasn't what either of us thought :P My wireless extender decided to grab the IP address I had statically assigned to my printer, and was the actual cause of the login dialog. Wasted hours on this, but should have known better.
Chris, BCWireless? Don't you know the current PC acceptable term is BCE!! All kidding aside, great video. For the power off resume, how did you decide on 5mm? Do you wanted it retracted all the way to the Bowden tube to avoid clogging the nozzle?
Ha ha ha! Thanks Ron! 5mm is the default setting just to keep the blobbing off your model. On a bowden you would probably be right, of course depends on the setup.
Got my Duet Wifi board - seems the configuration tool is broken, not possible to setup wifi networks on the one out now.
Well that's not good, I will have to check that out.
@@ChrisRiley I think it`s because of the transition/support for the new board. But - I got my way around it, made a card with 1.2 firmware, and downloaded your config and a couple of others - I think I can make my way around outside of the generator. A tad more work todo - but I will learn, so it`s not to bad - in the end.
Wifi config is gone from network setup. The "Marlin compatible" on the first screen is also missing.
@@stigberntsen9301 Hmmm...I see that.
@@stigberntsen9301 Right on. I will ask Duet about the RR config tool.
Chris, do you have a video that uses a webcam to monitor with duet?
I don't, but I have been meaning to figure that out.
@@ChrisRiley i just found something called duet-telegram. Might want to check it out.
@@davidchavarria Thanks, will do.
@@ChrisRiley Raspberry pi... set up a webcam with octoprint and make sure it works, then goto the www Duet web page, Settings , User Interface, and enter
the ip of your octoprint/webcam/?action=stream in the box and when you then press return on your keyboard it then wants a local picture file.... all i did was just point it at any old picture on my desk top and it accepted it, lol. Then goto Job Status and the web stream will / should be visible under the Webcam Surveillance heading in all its glory
Hi, work duet wifi with original x5sa LCD?
Hello, no, unfortunately Duet won't support that screen, pretty much only panel due will work.
@@ChrisRiley Is there some basic grahic interface for it? From what i saw, seem better to use pc to insert data, but in final form seems should be nice to use some easy way.
@@martinhyska1206 There is really only one at the moment, duet3d.com/PanelDue
so do you use YAT for anything?
Only to set the wifi settings.
i need help getting a bl touch to work with this board.
I have never done that install. I am not sure if Duet supports it as a servo or not.
There is more. My sd card crashed.and I dont know how to get all the files back. It is a x5s turnigy,with duet2wifi board
Check this out. duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/SD_Card
Please make a guide for the duet 3 6HC 🙏🙏
I am sure I will get to that sooner or later.
Chris Riley awesome! I just got a duet 3 and I feel like the guide is a pain to follow. We need you! You are the best at explaining this stuff!
