PanelDueFirmware 3.2-RC1 released
-
I have a paneldue 5i that was purchased from Filastruder last year. Can I safely assume I’d be fine to use this firmware? Short of disassembling my printer to look for the processor type, is there a “safe” date that’s a good way to determine the likelihood the hardware will be compliant?
-
@Nuramori yes! The 5i and 7i upgrade without issue (I did it myself on several today). The discussion above is about the older models..
-
@oozeBot thanks. I wanted to make sure because other than when I bought it, it would be hard to determine the processor short of examining the board. (The “I” models weren’t mentioned, so I don’t know if they are inherently the proper processor).
-
@Nuramori Thanks for pointing out that it was not clear enough. I updated the first post with a rough time until when it applies.

- Version 1.0, 1.1 and earlier 2 PanelDue: ATSAM3S2B processor (64MHz, 32kb RAM, 128kB flash) - these are the ones that the new firmware probably won't run on.
- Version 2 PanelDue manufactured from August 2016: ATSAM3S4B processor (64MHz, 48kb RAM, 256kb flash). Will run the new firmware, but not as fast as version 3 will.
- Version 3 PanelDue, including all 5i and 7i: ATSAM4S4B processor, 120MHz, 64kB RAM, 256kb flash. Will run the new firmware.

Just updated to 3.2-RC1 for PanelDue and 3.2-beta1 for the Duet ethernet. When using the console keyboard the characters hit are not echoed to the top line so you're typing blind.
I also have the issue of not being able to move the head via the PanelDue.

Thanks for reporting. I will have a look at that.
I also have the issue of not being able to move the head via the PanelDue.
That's a known issue and will be fixed in the next release (probably on Tuesday).

@dc42 how will this effect the CNC pendant sketch? Will you be updating it?

I asked @dc42 this the other day, he said “The CNC pendant just passes PanelDue commands through and does not look at responses. So it should not be affected.”
