Duet Web Control 2.0.0-RC6

Colten

I updated from DWC1 to the latest DWC and found I did not like it. So I switched back to DWC1 (thanks for that). I would like to switch back and forth between the two and could find no way of doing this other than re-uploading the latest RC. When I did this though, I was still within DWC1 and of course there is no switch to DWC-RC button.

The DWC2 files do not overwrite the DWC1 files. If you have both installed and you are using firmware 2.02 or later, then by default you will get DWC2. Here are two ways of getting DWC1:

Load DWC2, then find the link in DWC2 that gives you DWC1. Exactly where that link is depends on which version of DWC2 you are running.
When you type the IP address of the Duet into your browser, append "/reprap.htm" to it (without the quotes).

Just tried the DWC2 again, not bad. However I think the blue (#1976d2) is quite hard to read against the gray background in the dark mode. I think a lighter blue like #0091ea is much more readable. Also, I found two bugs. I built the latest Duet Web Control 2.0.0-RC6+3 from github.

If i click on Extra, any clicks on Tools will simply not do anything. I have no possibility to go back to Tools, other than to reload the page.
For some reason, in the Tool page, all the Current temperatures just read as n/a. The graph next to it shows all temperatures fine though.

For 2), the console shows this:

app.806a5f0e.js:19 TypeError: Cannot read property 'current' of undefined

@chrishamm Any chance you could duplicate the Compensation & Calibration button/menu onto the Height Map tab? I find myself flipping back and forth between the two. Just a thought.

Hi guys, just updated really quickly to 2.0 by uploading zip via WiFi. Now my printer is absolutely down as it loads an empty page. Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Here is the HTML from what loads:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="icon" href="<%= BASE_URL %>favicon.ico">
<title>Odin</title>
</head>
<body>
<noscript>
<strong>We're sorry but Duet Web Control does not work properly without JavaScript enabled. Please enable it to continue.</strong>
</noscript>
<div id="app"></div>

</body>
</html>

It basically loads index.html from SD card, but nothing else.

@vlad You can try taking the SD card out and putting it in a PC, deleting the contents of the WWW folder and unzipping the either the 1.22.6 or 2.0-RC6 versions into the WWW folder.

Vlad

@phaedrux nope, not helping. Looks like duet can't see that now index is in "public" subfolder. Why couldn't this be taken care of by DUET team instead of me now having to do their job again and having machine that is down. I basically installed the new zip in a usual way, and now printer is down. Why everything has to always be so half-assed... I can open the public.html file from browser, the problem is that it is absolutely deal and non functioning....

Phaedrux

@vlad Did you even try what I suggested?

there is no "public" folder
there is no "public.html"

This is how the structure looks on the (my) sd card:

… and the subfolder "www"

After what I've read from you everything, I can imagine where the problem sits: it sits in front of your screen. So first restore the original structure and test it again

... Why couldn't this be taken care of by DUET team instead of me now having to do their job again ... Why everything has to always be so half-assed…

I think you do not only need help with dealing with the duet, also in the topic of courtesy and politeness there is pent-up demand

Vlad

@phaedrux of course I did. Why would I say that it didn't work?

Vlad

@thwe yeah, this is how my V1.12 looked like, before I loaded that file. Zip file has public folder etc. Again duet3D leave us to wonder what to do. Zero clear manuals for years...

99% sure Vlad uploaded the source code zip file instead of the release zip file

For anyone else new to DWC2 who is having issues with it, here is some guidance.

DWC2 and DWC1 can coexist on the same SD card, because they use different files. The main page for DWC1 is reprap.htm. For DWC2 it is index.html. When you enter the Duet's IP address in the brower, firmware 2.02 and later will return index.html if it is present, otherwise reprap.html. So you can force DWC1 to load by appending /reprap.htm to the IP address in your browser tab, or by deleting or renaming index.html so that it is not found.
DWC2 puts more stress on the network system when loading than DWC1 did, and this exposed a bug in DuetWiFiServer 1.21. So if using a Duet WiFi, you should upgrade DuetWiFiServer to version 1.23.

@frank26080115 : yep he did, and being a halfass towards others isn't going to help him...

Sorry I am a bit late to the party but here are some comments/issues:

The active temperature drop-down menu was truncating the values until I did a 'command -' to zoom out one step. This is fine but there was still lots of space around the elements, and more if I dragged the window wider.
I don't have an ATX power supply configured, can I make that control go away?

This is on a 2012 MacBook Pro retina, running Firefox.

Otherwise looks very nice. I thought the ability to edit the drop-down list of g-codes on the top bar had gone away, but I worked it out and prefer this newer implementation.
Very happy to see the continued development.
Rob.

@chrishamm I found another issue. I have a macro that works a bit like G32 with no probe, i.e. it goes to several points and then presents the jog dials for Z.

In previous versions it was only possible to press reach jog button once but that has been fixed.

Now I have a new issue where the dialog is only shown at the first point. If I click on OK there the head moves to the next point but no dialog is shown. Switching to DWC1 immediately presents the dialog and all following. I did not try to reload DWC2 to see what happens, though.

That bug was related to the message boxes in general and it has been fixed in RC7.

@chrishamm When will there be a RC7 package available for download? So far I can only find up to RC6 ZIP files.

Hi,
looks good as far as I can tell! (took me a while to copy it to the sd-card - )

1 feature-request for people with moving-plate instead of moving-head, to make the symbol of the baby steps "ambidextrous" for both parties: dc42 already included it in the latest build for the panel due (https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/10061/paneldue-firmware-1-23-now-available/8) - it are two arrows either opposing each other for closer together - or two arrows pointing away from each other for spreading apart...

All the best! Nice work!
