@calvinx Maybe they are different in assembly but the boards and the steppers are the same. it would be a huge unnecessary expense to them to change any part of this. All is based on one, same steppers and wiring so there is less confusion and QC issues. I have 4 enders from different times and suppliers and all of them wire the same. Oh, CR10S4 too which is the same, except for the bigger Y motor.
OP will be able to confirm thatAgain if you say so, I can and will only go with what i have physically seen creality doing, the changes i have seen are not to the boards or the motors but to the wiring looms which in the case we are seeing differing looms not following the logical wiring method.
As a side note to admin is there anyway to block seeing certain users on the forum ?

I find it very confusing that the coils are labelled 2B,2A,1A,1B on the Duet Drive outputs when the motor specifications use A, B, not A, not B for the coils. Specifically, 2B and 2A are on one coil while 1A and 1B are on the other. I was reading it for quite a while as 1A and 2A as the same coil, could somebody tell me why you use this nomenclature on the hardware drawing?

It's because that's how Trinamic label the motor outputs on their driver ICs. We intend to change the labels at the next PCB revision.

Hi, I have a new Ender3 to supplement my efforts with my M3D Promega 3D printer so I am familiar with using and configuring the Duet 2 Meistro board. I want to upgrade my Ender 3 with the Duet2 WIFI controller, the Titan Aero hotend extruder, the BT-Touch probe, and the Panel Due 7i. I presently have these components for my upgrade on hand. What I need is a sample config.g file to use as a model to ease the installation pains along with tips on order of install (ie go "cold turkey" and install all at once, Duet first to get it going, etc). What I don't want to bother with is flashing firmware on the original Ender3 controller. On Dec 13, 2018 CalviNx mentioned he could share his config.g file from his Ender3+Duet2-WiFi+Titan Aero system. Anyone have additional tips for configuring all of this using the BT-Touch? I still need to print the Titan Aero mounts so this is an area for finding recommended .stl files. Any assistance is welcomed.

I use this mount on mine ender3, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3279302
I am not by my printer right now or i would send you my config.g.
Mind you I am using a probe so i cannot help with the BL Touch.. -
Here's themount I'm favoring so far for the Ender3+TitanAero+BLTouch: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3078853
Any better ones? -
I can still use a config.g file for this combo upgrade for the Duet3dWIFI+TitanAero+BLTouch Ender3 upgrade. Also, any better order of install over "cold turkey" attempt of install all, then test, giving a working default ENDER3 original configuration? Or, is it better to get the Duet wifi going with the original extruder first before attempting the Aero install?Comments? Recommendations?

@SeahorseRider I'd probably do it all at once. If you know the mechanical details of the printer you can use the web configurator to get a config file set that should get you the basics. I'm not familiar with the ender 3 specifics off hand, but it's not exotic. This should give you an idea of what sort of details you need to know about the ender 3 to successfully populate the configurator.

Thanks, Phaedrux. Can you give me some tipss on how to implement the BLTouch probe in my planned configuration? Specifically, how to set xyz offsets for the probe, when engaged so Duet mesh mapping really knows where the probe is at. This is where a sample config.g file for my planned mod would be useful. Someone else's implementation may only differ by offsets from nozzle to probe tip. Doint the mesh mapping could be set up with macros like the Promega uses on the Duet Maestro.
-
@seahorserider For the offset in X and Y you can measure, either with a ruler, or by marking the spot on the bed where the nozzle tip is and then jogging X and Y until the probe is over the spot where the nozzle is. Take the amount you jogged as your X and Y offset. For Z you should use the Z probe trigger height calibration.

Thanks. Z-Height Calibration I think is Macro #1 on the promega. Forgot about that.
