PanelDueFirmware 3.2-RC2 released

wilriker

I am pleased to announce the second release candidate for PanelDueFirmware 3.2. This release contains primarily bug fixes and one small change in behavior. See below for details.

Version 3.2-RC2

Upgrade Notes:

This release is compatible with RepRapFirmware 3.2-beta1 or later. It will partially work with RepRapFirmware 3.1.1 but not with any older version.

Limitations

Due to the lack of RAM this build will not run on version 1 or early version 2 PanelDue boards that use the ATSAM3S2B chip.

Version 1.0, 1.1 and earlier v2 PanelDue: ATSAM3S2B processor (64MHz, 32kb RAM, 128kB flash) - these are the ones that the new firmware probably won't run on.
Version 2 PanelDue manufactured from August 2016: ATSAM3S4B processor (64MHz, 48kb RAM, 256kb flash). Will run the new firmware, but not as fast as version 3 will.
Version 3 PanelDue, including all 5i and 7i: ATSAM4S4B processor, 120MHz, 64kB RAM, 256kb flash. Will run the new firmware.

Changes since RC1:

Status colors of tools were confusing (because a tool can never go to "off" after being active once) so it only shows "active" or "anything else"

Bug fixes since RC1:

In some cases setting a tool's heater would instead the heatbed temperature
Chamber and heatbed icons did not change colors according to their state
It was not possible to disable the chamber heater by tapping the chamber button
Move popup buttons were none-functional
Commands entered via on-screen-keyboard were not echoed into the text field

Known Issues:

While a heater is heating and it is being waited for it to reach target temperature PanelDue will see no updates from RepRapFirmware - this is an issue in RepRapFirmware and will be fixed in the next release
Screensaver delay select popup does only hide when clicking on a tab button - this will be fixed in the next release

@wilriker

This release uses the RepRapFirmware ObjectModel instead of limited status responses

Would you mind expanding on this? Is the intent to make the PanelDue an object that can be referenced through conditional gcode? Or is this just a rewrite of how the PanelDue communicates with RRF?

Thanks

jay_s_uk

@oozeBot it's a communication rewrite to move from M408 to M409

wilriker

@oozeBot As @jay_s_uk already said this moves the status requests that PanelDue sends towards RRF from M408 to M409, i.e. PanelDue itself requests updates of the ObjectModel. Advantage is that the responses contain all necessary information to also represent complex configurations on PanelDue.

I get an error modifying the extrusion % from paneldue with 3.2-RC2
"M221 D parameter to high"

Reprap fw 3.2 b1

https://github.com/Duet3D/PanelDueFirmware/issues/75

KipK created this issue in Duet3D/PanelDueFirmware

closed 3.2 RC2 changing extrusion % gives M221 D parameter to high #75

wilriker

@KipK Can you give some more information, please? I cannot reproduce the issue, yet.

First of all: to which value do you want to set your extruder? config.g might be helpful. In case there are multiple extruders please state which one. Most helpful would be a step-by-step list of instructions to reproduce your issue.

KipK

@wilriker , sure

I only have one extruder.
I was about to get 97%. Then got back in the web panel and saw it was still 100%.
Than saw the error in panel console.
I could eproduce it at each try then.

I'll investigate further.

@KipK I will most likely only get to this on Tuesday.

If you are willing to further investigate: You can see what the PanelDue is sending back to RRF by connecting e.g. your PC by USB to your Duet, open a terminal (https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Guide/1.)+Getting+Connected+to+your+Duet/7) and send

M111 P3 S1

after that you see every GCode command processed by RRF (tip: close every DWC session to avoid seeing tons of commands from channel HTTP). The channel you are looking for is Aux.
Then command your extrusion factor change and see what PanelDue sends back to RRF. It should look like

M221 Dn Snnn

@KipK As stated on GitHub already: I found and fixed the issue. Thanks for reporting - this also revealed some minor UI issues as a side-effect.

This will be fixed in the 3.2-RC3 release I plan to release this week.

KipK

Great. Thanks. I'll test this thereafter

3.2-RC3 has been released. See https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/18952/panelduefirmware-3-2-rc3-released
