Hi David,

On 2.0 RC5 now...
I noticed that in the web interface machine status that Z jumps up and down while printing.
I am on Layer Z 9.6, but it sometimes display goes to 10.6.. then back to 9.6 again...
(is it because of delayed display of Z hop?)

Can anyone double confirm on this?

That's to be expected if you have configured 1mm Z-hop in your slicer. It won't happen if you use firmware retraction and configure Z hop in the M207 retraction settings

Did some machining today with 2.0RC5 and all was OK.

Chrishamm had just released Duet Web Control 1.21.1 so I've added it to the release area at https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.0RC5a. Anyone who was experiencing problems with DWC 1.21.1RC4, please try this new version.

Just updated both & running a print now...

FYI, I got around my Trinamic\board fan issues, by wiring the board fan in parallel (1 socket & 2 plugs) with the hot end fan, which was set to come on at the same'ish temperatures anyway...

Been running on the RailCore nearly non-stop since you released it yesterday. Was previously on 2.0rc3, both have worked without issues that I've encountered. Turning out some fantastic prints.

Upload errors are expected with the new firmware if you have a password set on your Duet (other than the default 'reprap') and you use DWC 1.21.

Please load DWC ~~1.21.4~~ 1.21.1RC4 on to your Duet, clear the browser cache, load it and immediately press control-shift-J to get the debugging console. Then when DWC becomes unresponsive, there may be an exception message.

For me there was of course no change with DuetWebControl-1.21.1, too bad.

Why 1.21 runs smoothly, and with 2.0 and 1.21.1 DWC does not work at all? And the sporatic problem with the gcode files.

I have not set up a password.

Here is a video to clear the browser cache.

Can someone try to upload this gcode file, these are not displayed on me with RRF 2.0RC5 + DWC 1.21.
Is this due to RRF or the gcode file.

I'm having some strange under extrusion issue. Not sure how I started a print at all but I can see that my support is under extruded. The first layer of the part barely pushed out any plastic. I tested by trying to manually extrude 100mm of material and only about 40mm got extruded. I did this twice. Once by commanding a full 100 and then commanding 20mm 5 times.

~~I have to revert to 2b for now which did not have any issues that I noticed.~~

wilriker

@bmmal I can confirm this. I tried 100mm and 50mm extrusion and it did barely extrude less than 100mm altogether - that might also explain why my print today hat what I first thought was a layer shift. Now it rather makes sense that extrusion was so low that bed adhesion failed at one point, moved the print and gladly found hold again in a place where I did not have to toss the print away.

I will also downgrade to RC4 and check again.

EDIT: I retested and now can no longer reproduce the problem.

@BMMal how fast did you extrude? When I tried with 5mm/s it would fail most often. I tried again with 1mm/s and it extruded exactly 100mm on RC5.

gcode file delete problem threw dwc:1.21.1, fw:2.0-rc4:
->http://printer.loc/rr_delete?name=0%3A%2Fgcodes%2Fvase.gcode
<-{"err":1}
Message displayed: Error: Cannot delete file 0:/gcodes/vase.gcode because it is open

There was no print or simmulation since cold bootup, just deleted a bunch of other gcode files.
After "emergency stop" the file deleted successfully.

I have to retest. I found a mechanical problem and suspect there may be another. Working on it.

More or less the same here. Too fast extrusion speed plus a bad angle in my Reverse Bowden. Retested twice now and both times perfect 100mm extrusions.

Something is not adding up for me. I have tried both RC3 and RC5 and I'm getting half of what I should with both of them. I don't recall changing anything with my steps/mm or microstepping...

wilriker

@bmmal What speed are you testing with? For me 1mm/s works fine, 5mm/s did not reliably extrude the requested amount - at least not with the bad angle in my reverse bowden and a comparably weak ungeared extruder setup.

BMMal

@wilriker

1mm/s

Usually 5 is just on the edge of too fast.

Found that out as well.

BMMal

@wilriker So not really sure what it was, may have been a combination of the way I had my steps/mm for each extruder and microstepping explicitly defined ie Exx:xx:xx:xx rather than just Exx.

At one point it looks like I had the arrays mismatched in size so default 16x were being loaded rather than the 8x

Seems to be back to normal now...

Thanks, those all look OK. The 404 errors for those particular files are normal.

One difference between 2.0 and earlier versions is that the total size of output buffers is reduced in 2.0. Because of the way that DWC fetches the file list, this means that the number of files that DWC will display in a single directory is about 1/3 lower than it was before. So if you have a lot of GCode files on the SD card and you do not organise them into directories, then you will not see new files that you upload into the /gcodes folder in DWC even though they are there. The workaround is to create subdirectories and move some of the files into them.

What other problems are you having with 2.0RC5 and DWC 1.21.1 final?
