Dual extruder Chimera setup help?
-
Failed to load resource: net::ERR_NETWORK_CHANGED is what I get before on the DWC but this time I sliced from S3D and changed the temperature identifier for the bed from T2 as S3D sets it to T0 in the FFF settings and it started to print using each extruder !!!! but then every layer started shifting about 9 or 10mm.
Any ideas for either issue?Also I really appreciate the help from everyone , thanks
-
My guess at the layer shift would be that you've set the tool offset in both Duet and S3D perhaps?
-
not sure what happened but now it has gone back to freezing after a layer or so as I was trying to adjust the tool offsets
This is what control shift J gets now
-
Try firmware 1.18beta3 and DWC 1.15. i think that version of DWC may include a relevant fix.
-
updated both and like the new layout but it still freezes
-
SUCCESS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It looks like crap but I'm calling it a success
I'm not sure what fixed it exactly but I tried a new config file and all of the slicers G code works fine now
This was my old config that froze after the first layer:

This bears out what I said in my last post (yesterday at 20.55). The one common factor is that the problem occurs when the config.g has the output is set to look like RepRap (M555 P1) but changing config.g so that the output looks like Marlin (M555 P2) fixes it.
I'm unable to test this hypothesis myself as I have a hardware fault which prevents me from connecting via WiFi but if the OP or someone else can do that quick test, it'll prove it for sure. Then I guess either something needs to be changed in the firmware or DWC or the documentation needs to state that compatibility needs to be set to Marlin (M555 P2). There is no mention of it here https://duet3d.com/wiki/G-code#M555:_Set_compatibility but maybe there is somewhere else?

IanYou are probably correct since I went back and checked and when I made the config file that worked through the online configurator that I had forgotten to select the firmware comparability to RepRap and it had been left on Marlin compatibility for the config that works.

Yeah! I'm glad we found the reason - I hate not knowing what causes something. Hopefully David or Tony will see this and take the necessary steps to either get the firmware or DWC changed, or alternatively amend the documentation to say that compatibility should be set to Marlin.

It's good this is worked out. I will alert Christian to the issue.
