Do PanelDue move commands respect config settings?
-
I have a z stepper that skips when commanded to move too fast. I've set the speed and accelerations in config.g to acceptable values, but whenever I touch the z move buttons on the PanelDue the move seems a lot faster and the stepper skips.
Two questions:- Do the PanelDue move commands respect the config settings?
- Can I slow down the PanelDue moves?

@mjlew OK, I think I've solved my problem as it corrected itself when I cycled the power on the PanelDue. It seems to me that when I changed the z acceleration settings in the config.g file and restarted the board, the PanelDue was not updated. Restarting it updated its settings.
I'm not certain that my diagnosis is correct, as it seems strange to me that the command from the PanelDue would ignore the config settings, but what do I know?

What firmware version on the Duet and the Panel Due?
In more recent versions of paneldue firmware you can specify a move speed I believe.
Perhaps your max speed setting in config.g is still too fast for a sudden move above a certain speed?

@phaedrux Thanks Phaedrux. The software versions are not entirely current (3.2.2 for the Duet, I think). Now that I've re-started the PanelDue and also stopped PrusaSlicer from overwriting my maximum rates it is all back under my control!
(I'm not keen to update the firmwares right now as I'm printing parts for a new printer. Updates once I am done!)

@mjlew the speed and acceleration limits set in config.g are enforced regardless of where the movement command comes from.
