Firmware 2.0RC2 released

You should still be able to home X and Y concurrently initially, nothing has been changed in that respect.

Your method of Z homing is unusual. Normally you would use either a G1 S1 Z move and a homing switch, or a G30 Z probe, not both. But either of the following methods should still work if you want to do fast then slow Z homing:

Tell the firmware that the Z endstop (for the G1 S1 Z command) is the Z probe, by using M574 Z1 S2 in config.g.
Use G30 to do the fast Z homing instead of a G1 S1 Z move, but use an extra M558 command to temporarily increase the probing speed (F parameter in M558).

What is that? need a not-maestro explanation

Hi, I just installed the RC2 and from the interface I'm not able to shutdown the heater, it turned on automatically (at 0ºC for active and standby temp) and if I try to "control all, turn everything off" or to switch from active to standby (from the interface) it does nothing, but I can switch from active from standby in the paneldue though.

In the console I see this "G10 P0 R-273.15 S-273.15", but nothing changes.

I think nothing changed at heater config level between 1.21 and this RC, right? (at least, I didn't see it...)

Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet
Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later
Firmware Version: 2.0(RTOS)RC2 (2018-05-10b1)
WiFi Server Version: 1.21
Web Interface Version: 1.21.1-RC4

Anyone else sees the same?

@dc42

I've changed my Z homing code to work as in your second option and it works well. However, I've decided to disable the functionality for now using M564 H0. I'll revisit this after I get a few print jobs completed and I can give it my full attention.

@cata This is a 12864 display.

@johnocfii Yes, i know. But, can we have that on the duets?

I looked into this a bit a year or so ago. My understanding is that it would require another board to supply the smarts that are in the PanelDue displays in between the Duet and the 12864. With that level of hassle and expense, it would be easier to just get the PanelDue if you wanted a display. At least -- that is what I remember. I decided not to pursue a display.

Cata

@johnocfii You are wrong, i see the full graphics display with a 2 usd wemos working in the duet. Total cost = 10 usd. I want to know how is working in the maestro.

On the Duet Maestro we included 2 more 10-pin ribbon cable sockets and and extra chip to gate and convert the SPI bus to 5V, so that we can support 12864 displays. We did that on the basis that someone buying a budget board would be more likely to want to use a budget display.

To do the same on the other Duets you would need an adapter that plugs into the daughter board connector and the CONN_SD connector, to provide the gating and level shifting.

Another type of budget display that works with all Duets is an old smartphone running DWC.

I upgraded to 2.0RC2 and currently my second print is running perfectly fine so far.

Only thing I realized was that after upgrading I did not reset the Duet (would that have been recommended anyway?) and when running a G29 (no Z probe, so manually adjusting via DWC buttons) movement commands where heavily delayed. So when clicking on a button to move Z up/down sometimes this was instantaneously and sometimes it would take up to several seconds for the printer to react. I have not reset the Duet afterwards and I have not yet tried this again (I will likely do it tonight or tomorrow as I have to move the printer again).

If you tell me that this is something that can be expected when upgrading firmware and not doing a reset then you can ignore this one.

@dc42 where stands dwc for. A Google search on dwc telephone dont give any good results

@mickey30m Duet Web Control... just means open on the phone the Duet website :P.

you can also use the findmyduet app on android works extremely well

Same for me. At some point the Web Interface lost connection and the print stopped. I was able to access the board via Telnet and generate an M122, but several atpempts needed before gettign the log because the Telnet would close connection before dumping all information.

I move this post here from the thread on 2.0RC1.

I confirm that there is a problem with getting M122 reports via Telnet. I will try to fix this for the 2.0 release.

The software reset data indicates that it crashed while trying store data for Telnet to pick up, but the crash address doesn't make sense. Please confirm that you were running the firmware binary downloaded from the releases area on github, not one that you built yourself.

EDIT: I just spotted that the "impreciserr" bit is set in the CFSR, which would explain why the fault address doesn't make sense.

Hi,

I'd like try this release... but some questions?

It's sufficient stable for a print of 4/5h?
Can be instaled in Duet Wifi+Panel Due?
Need do some adjustements in config.g?

Probably.

Yes.

If you are running 1.21 already then no changes are needed.

I found the problem. Following the change to use RTOS, a mutex was needed to protect the Telnet reply buffer because it is accessed by multiple tasks.

I have updated the binaries in the release to 2.0-RC2a with this fixed. I also added binaries for Duet085/06 and RADDS.

My first print with the new firmware came out perfectly fine, but the heater was in "standby status" at 205ºC (the temperature of my print), so it didn't turn out when it finished...

My ending gcode is "G10 P0 R-273.15 S-273.15" (same as if I use "Turn Everything Off"), but it doesn't do the job. However, If I use "G10 P0 R0 S0" the status is still Active or Standby but the temp actually goes to 0 as the desired temp...

Updated successfully, but needed to do a power cycle, as with USB connected it reported an error (sorry didn't trap it). Tried the earlier release, but that kept throwing a heater prob, & stopped the extruder motor, but the other motors kept rolling along, as if doint the print...

One quick question regarding the web interface; while printing via USB from Simply3D the Machine elements (heaters\machine\fan status etc.) work as expected, but the Print Status screen is "blank" (graphics but no data) and the Pause print button is disabled. Is this how it should be ??

I also have to admit that I don't know if it was like this with the release version.
