stratasys uprint "stratadue" Duet 2 to Stratasys Interface

Re: Another Stratasys uPrint retrofit
hello, I have a stratsys uprint and I'm looking for the "gerber" file of the interface if anyone has this under the elbow it will be nice. THANKS -

@motomo See if you can get in touch with @AJ-Quick, otherwise I recommend taking a look at this uPrint conversion

@motomo Can't provide a Gerber as that was a prototype that didn't work.

thank you all, I understand now, otherwise I have a duet 3d 6hc, can I put it in place of the duet2wifi? thanks guys for your help.

@motomo I've been thinking over the 6HC vs the Duet 2, and I think it would be possible - although I have not checked all of the input and output requirements. Some things to think about
- To control the extruder DC motor, you'll likely need to add a Duet 1XD board to control the Geckodrive G320x (or some other equivalent device of your choosing). The 1XD will send the Step and Direction outputs to the Geckodrive, which in turn will pass information off to the Stratasys PDB (and then in turn, based on the wiring, I believe to the PDB's STMicroelectronics L298 Full Bridge, maybe @AJ-Quick can correct me on that).
- You may want to investigate power supply requirements, the Duet 6HC can take 12-48v input (depending on the hardware revision), whereas the uPrint has 5v, 12v and 24v power supplies.
