@Chriss check the drawing again the 96 is from the edge of the board and the holes are 4 in from that edge making 92 as per your measurements

Is there a board DXF available for creating a mount?

the dimensions should suffice

When using an acrylic or other material to install the electronics, a PDF(or other) with accurate size that can be used as a template to print and mark the holes is of much help.

@Dougal1957

Wow.. you are right....

This is so hard... the drawing shows the distance from hole to hole on the long site. And the distance from the board "west site" to the hole center at the "east site". Wow.... they fooled me... again.

Overall dimensions and mounting hole positions on the Duet 3 Mini are the same as for the Duet WiFi/Ethernet. However, the motor connectors are on the opposite side of the board compared to Duet 2.

@T3P3Tony Do you confirm the official name of the expansion is going to be "Mini 2+" cse noone of the resellers know about its existance... thanks

@oc_geek yes it is. and we have not got any to send to the resellers, and no pictures to setup the product listing yet so thats why they are not setup for it yet.

I'm hoping to post a draft version of the updated Ender 3 Pro Duet 3 Mini 5+ wiring guide tonight. Updated config and tuning guides to follow in coming days.

And here it is: https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/20633/ender-3-pro-and-duet-3-mini-5-guide

@T3P3Tony Will there be any additional connectors (beyond the 2 additional 2209 drivers) on the 2+ expansion card ?

No, just the two motor connectors.

A friend of mine who yet has not done much with electronics and coding happens to have one of these "ender" and I just told him how much possibilities he would have with some new mainboard like duet3d -> Hope you finish the guide, because I would really like him to benefit from something more capable, but I do not think alone currently he would manage to upgrade

Few board available on E3donline

Too bad e3d will only use fedex for overseas orders, expensive import fees compared to royal mail.

Anyways, am I right in seeing that if you use PanelDue with the Mini5+ you don't have enough inputs to use the 2 stepper expansion if you want to have endtops/filament sensors for all steppers + z probe? As such Pi + hdmi screen or 12864 might be better options.

Or can the 12864 interface be repurposed for general purpose io? (https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/RepRapFirmware_3_overview#Section_Pin_names_for_Duet_Num_3 isn't updated with the Mini5+ yet)

Repurposing the 12864 pins is not currently supported AFAIK. If you need all 7 IO inputs then the display options are a 12864 or a PI+ display.

Correct, not supported at present.
