RepRapFirmware 2.0beta1 available
-
@dc42 I finally got 2.0 beta back in for some testing. I ran an M572 and got back .000,.300 result which is what I should get. I was running Pressure advance with this setting (M572 D1 S.3).
As you can see in the picture, there are places where the head stops and the extruder places large blotches of plastic. I guess pressure advance is working but it looks more like a G0 issue with planned moves? When I revert back to 1.21 and run the same program it works perfect. Strange part is it didn't act this way when running my other print head and using (M572 D0 S.3). I will confirm that again tonight but I did run several parts on 2.0 Alpha without any issues. I didn't see any problems till I tried running a print with my other print head using M572 D1 S.3.https://photos.app.goo.gl/843qx9v78aPUum2n2
Here is the gcode I was running. The problems start right away.

Please advise,

Tim, I can confirm that in 2.0beta1 when a G0 command follows a G1 command with extrusion, the G0 command repeats the extrusion. I have fixed it and I will release a new beta tonight or tomorrow.

Great! I will watch for the update and try it out asap. Not sure where you get the time to keep up with these updates but I thank you sincerely.

Firmware 2.0beta2 is now released at https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/tree/v2-dev/EdgeRelease.
-
I'll try it out tonight. Thanks again.
-
I did a quick test with my file where I noticed the G0 problem.
I had stopped the print after a few layers, but it looked good so far, thanks! -
@dc42: any progress on the file upload problem in the latest beta?
-
@whosrdaddy, see the release notes.
-
Ah must buy some glasses, did read the notes and somehow looked over it
Will test this tomorrow and report back. -
@dc42: The file upload problem still stands in beta2, behavior is exact the same as shown in the video I posted earlier.

With 2.0alpha I always had a disconnection unless the file was tiny. With 2.0beta1 I had a disconnection only with uploading certain file sizes. With 2.0 beta2 I don't see any disconnection. What upload file sizes cause disconnections for you? Do you have more than one device running DWC?
-
@dc42 : only one dwc connection, tried a 2MB file and a 12MB file and both failed.
did some more testing and had success with a 1MB file.
Just to be clear, the file is correctly uploaded but DWC disconnects at the end. -
My Beta 2 disconnects when uploading larger files. Other than that it works perfect so far.
-
I tried the Beta 2 today for two prints. Everything went fine. Then I wanted to go back to 1.21 and using DWC I hade to upload the Duet2CombinedFirmware.bit three times. The first two times I dod not receive the message to update the firmware. Once in 1.21 I changed some settings in config.g and on sage the DWC message detected a new firmware and asked again to update to 1.21. This can well be related to a "disconnect" after uploading a file although I did not notice on the DWC.
-
@dc42 I can confirm that when uploading small files <1 meg it works fine. When uploading any larger files I get a disconnect.
I only ever run one device with DWC (Windows 7 Pro PC) and I only have 4 gcode files on my SD card.
Once I reconnect with DWC the prints run perfect.
-
Those of you who are still experiencing disconnects immediately after uploading a file with beta 2: are you using WiFi or Ethernet Duets?

@dc42 : Wifi

I'm using a Wifi board. The latest DWC, Duex5, and a 7" paneldue 2.0.

Also Wifi.

Thanks all, it looks like the problem with disconnections after file uploads may be solved on the Duet Ethernet but not on the WiFi. I'll do some more testing.
