Please help me update Duet Web Control
-
Hi and thanks for the help. (I am far from a programmer but can follow instructions.)
Machine details
Board: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet 2.05.1 (2020-02-09b1)
Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.23
Duet Web Control 2.0.7I noticed on Github that I am a bit behind with the DWC. But I don't have a clue on how to update it. I can see some files but don't know which ones to upload. I see there is an Upload button in the System menu.
I would really appreciate it if someone could point me to a tutorial or YouTube video on how to do it.Is it possible to update the board also? From what I understand it is a rather old board. I also don't want to do something where everything on the board is wiped. I don't have a clue on how to get everything working again.
Thanks again. -
If you wish to stay with RRF2 you are limited to DWC 2.0.7 as well. In order to move beyond that you'd need to do some updating.
If you still have access to DWC. Upload these 3 zip files, one at a time in the system tab. Don't extract them first. Reboot after each. Use M115 in the gcode console to verify the firmware has been applied.

https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.3/Duet2and3Firmware-3.3.zip
That will get your firmware and DWC up to date.You can see the change logs here:

https://configtool.reprapfirmware.org/StartBackup your existing config files in the sys folder in case you want to switch back to RRF2. It’s easy to switch back and forth, just upload the zip file for the version you want and then upload your config files.
These documents will come in handy during the conversion.

https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/GcodeThank you so much for your reply. I appreciate your time helping me.
Is it possible to go back to my current installation if something doesn't work out? I will make a backup of all system files and download the zip before doing anything else.
Thanks again. -
Yes it's possible to go back and forth, though you probably won't want to.
