Announcement: Duet 3 Toolboard revision v1.1

jMaddrell

Is there a list of what resellers will have these in the UK/EU?

Really great! Now I will get one!

To further "broaden the audience" to this board you might consider replacing the solder-jumper with a real one in the next iteration, then even the "only-will-burn-myself-with-a-solder-iron-fraction" might consider it

@lbi we looked at that but, as you can see, there is not a lot of space left!

@jmaddrell I know we are shipping them out as fast as we get them!

Fantastic choices all-around on the updates!

That doesn't actually answer the question though.

From going down the list the the majority of EU/UK suppliers are not listing the updated version, it appears the only filastruder are "on the ball" enough to be showing updated information, which is a pretty poor service from EU/UK suppliers.

I have even had it from a UK Supplier advertising the v1.0 boards but supplying v0.6 boards, so I am loathe to purchase in-case they just want to offload older stock, and not being able to purchase the newest item unless you contact the supplier and specifically request the v1.1 is tiresome.

I read that the accelerometer will only with the Duet 3 on standalone mode, not SBC. Any ideia when support for the SBC mode will come?

In firmware version 3.4, which is also when input shaping will be supported.

Any chance we can get a STEP for the new Version? I am trying to do a mount for a tight space, would be useful to have a complete 3d model. Guesstimates from the 1.0-Step wont work well as the connectors changed and the new board is slightly larger...

@pixelpieper I too am interested in that - both for to revise my extruder design and to also make an illustrated guide to orientation and what the "I" value should be based on it's position. I plan on it being fully graphical so it's very easy to know what's correct. I plan on sharing that here too when I'm done.

@t3p3tony

The dimensions of drawing and 3D differ......
Not a big thing but:
The two upper holes are 13/38 and 47/38 in PCB vs. 13/39 and 47/39 in 3D....
Not talking about slightly shifted plugs....

Nuramori

@t3p3tony Thanks!

T3P3Tony

@diy-o-sphere thanks, will fix that! The STEP is correct.

Edit: Fixed - it was actually all 4 holes shifted up 1mm as the hole sacing has not changed.

Nuramori

@T3P3Tony Here's a PDF I made that should help with what the "I" value should be for the toolboard, based on how it's oriented. Hope it helps.

@t3p3tony thanks, now it only has to become available at a European reseller

@nuramori thanks!

I think its supposed to be a surprise, looks like it's too much to expect a structured and professional approach to distribution and notification of such distribution.

dc42

@jayjay the problem was that the moment we announced to the user base that we are working on a new version with more features, there was a risk that our resellers would be left with old stock that they can't sell. So we were trying to let stocks of the v1.0 tool board run out before we announced the V1.1. It's not fair on our resellers to leave them with old stock, and our margins are not big enough for us to scrap and write off a large number of older boards in the supply chain.

I guess we could have increased the price of the v1.1, but we didn't want to do that.

pixelpieper

@dc42 Totally understandable. Nevertheless, I would be happy to pay 5-10 euro more for V1.1 to finance someone else getting the same amount off on a V1.0...
