New beta firmware release 1.20beta10

whosrdaddy

I'm running beta 10 on a cartesian, no problems to report.
Seems to be a delta/scara kinematics problem…

Hi,

#1 Delta
#2 Benchy : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:763622
#3 no bug reported

Additional notes : the bug is not consistent, it's not happening each time at the same place with the same gcode file. In my case on 4 benchy, it happens 3 times and each time this "offset" was temporary (see picture)

Hi David,

1. State what machine architecture you are using (Cartesian, Delta etc.)
Delta

Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet WiFi
Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.0
Firmware Version: 1.20beta10 (2017-11-23)
WiFi Server Version: 1.20b10
Web Interface Version: 1.19.3

Took two attempts to load wifiserver via sd card. I am not getting as far as being able to get to the point of the layer shift. First attempt the machine threw a heater fault (normally completely reliable) just after warmup and delta calibration so i restarted it. The console debugging is in this file

https://1drv.ms/u/s!Apv79JfGbPIwg4RptjqtFRPVBjLS6w

labelled console.txt.

Then I tried again, and it crashed, stopped printing at around layer 8 nozzle on the print, nothing for a few seconds then a full reset. I powered back up saved m122, and have included console (console2.txt), eventlog and config.g.

Hope this helps but I'm downgrading for now.

dc42

Thanks. Unfortunately the M122 file is empty. However, I see some extruder step error reports in one of the console logs and I will take a detailed look at those. The full reset sounds as if it may be a watchdog timeout, which one other user has reported getting in beta 7 and later.

Sorry about the m122. I will reduce extruder steps/mm which is quite high on 1/16th with Nimble 1/8th or 1/4 would work just fine.

dc42

btw I simulated the high E steps/mm on my delta by configuring and selecting a dummy extruder, and I still wasn't able to get any step errors. So I'll take a look at your config and see what's different.

frafa

on scara I use
M82 ;Set extruder to absolute mode
can be bug come from there?
I can not test until Tuesday …

DjDemonD

Just to report I have had no luck getting wifiserver1.20beta10 onto my other machine a corexy, the only difference here is its a 1.02 board. Tried via the memory card several times, normal console messages installing etc but get failed to initialise wifi module, code -10. I did check I was using the updated file, not the first one which didn't work. Beta 9 wifi server working perfectly, however.

demonio669

I have the same layer shift problem with beta10

Shen

I also have layer shift on my cartesian printer with external drivers. My stepper/driver has encoder that will generate fault signal if there is a large positional error. I did not get any fault from my driver which means there must be some thing wrong with the input signal they are receiving.

printed 3 benchy, with 3 layer offset (different on each print) nothing in step error through a M122

@whosrdaddy:

I'm running beta 10 on a cartesian, no problems to report.
Seems to be a delta/scara kinematics problem…

I had the issue on my Cartesian printer. I have since restored to the previous firmware and it is fine now. I just pulled off the whole y-axis to do some tweaking so I cant pull up anymore info.

I sliced using S3d.

dc42

It looks like these issues may be due to a lack of free RAM in beta 10. I've prepared a new version with some RAM freed up. I hope to release it tonight or tomorrow.

zlowred

I didn't have any WiFi disconnects since installing the WiFi firmware 1.20beta10 so I hope it is fixed finally.

DjDemonD

To be fair this is first problematic release I've encountered so that's not bad going, it is quite a complex piece of software now.

;On a Cartesian RepRap you can get prints exactly the right size by tweaking the axis steps/mm using the M92 G Code above. But this does not work so easily for Delta and other RepRaps for which there is cross-talk between the axes. This ;command allows you to adjust the X, Y, and Z axis scales directly. So, if you print a part for which the Y length should be 100mm and measure it and find that it is 100.3mm long then you set Y0.997 (= 100/100.3).

DjDemonD: here are my Z probe repeatability metrics:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15TNWrQdryhAFkfltrYofC_Zl10F0TGuRSZ4mP1esJtI/edit?usp=sharing

Overall, my BLTouch clone achieves a range of about 60-50µm, and a standard-deviation of less than 15µm.

1.20beta10 with Z-Probe type 8 didn't change very much for me though.
Biggest impact was probing speed and maybe my latest upgrade to Tr8x2.

DjDemonD

Thank you that's very interesting. So it seems best case scenario it's about 50 microns as expected.

percar

I too have had the shift while printing after upgrading to 1.20 beta 10. I changed back to an earlier version and the shift went away. I tried the same print 3 times with shift each time….
My printer is cartesian
