@jay_s_uk like it, his guide is so good, I got so good initial results after I built my Voron just by adapting his profiles.
I hope his PA calibration will spread, with that generator it is so much easier to do.
Maybe someone can put that into the Duet docs too? https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Tuning/Pressure_advance

Didn't realize you were here

I have been around since E3D published their BigBox and I switched to a Duet board for it...

@jay_s_uk I saw you also started a PR, did you begin before I created mine? Sorry if you put some work into it and mine got merged but really appreciated your comments and directions, remembering all the stuff spread around the config files is hard if you don't do it on an everyday basis and just use the machine...

I had a look at the issue but mine is not exactly the same. The info messages just apprea in the console log, and I admit this can clog up the log too but they do not block user input to the main interface as the messages I talk about do...

Hmmm a picture won't tell much and I don't wann apost a large video.

It is basically is startup and then I see following messages each for just a moment:

1. HTTP is enabled on port 80
2. FTP is disabled
3. TELNET is disabled
4. Warning: Heater 1 predicted ...
5. Error: Accelerometer not found on specified port
6. Wifi module started

That's all expected, that is what config.g does to the network, my heater can get too hot and I configured an accelerometer which is not connected,. Then as expected the wifi module starts.
But then it continues:

7. Error: Wifi module reported: no known networks found
8. Wifi module is idle

These two messages then appear in an infinite loop. You have to close the last one and hurry to get to the macros until they pop up again, you close it again and continue to navigate to the macro to active tha AP mode.
After that macro got through all is fine.

I could make the macro one of the four possible entries at the main view to get it called quicker. But I normally do not need it and I like to have different entries there, so that is not a real option.

As I said, very annoying, also in a "supervised" environment of freaks all looking at the machine this looks strange

Thanks for your answer...

Please post which version of RRF and PanelDue firmware you are using.

Board: Duet 3 Mini 5+ (Mini5plus)
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 3 Mini 5+ 3.4.3 (2022-10-05)
Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.27

Panel Due firmware version: 3.4.1

@droftarts said in Error messages spam if configured wifi not available:

You should not use M587 in config.g.

I don't, I just wanted ot say I set it with that command to store it in the module.

Thanks for the tips to change config.
I am doing it currently with two macros, though i am just using one because restarting activates default client mode. This is my "Activate AP" macro:

M552 S0
G4 S5
M552 S2

I'll have a look at the meta commands, maybe I'll do that, that could be a workaround.

Thanks!

Hi,
I have a Duet Mini 5+ running in a somehow portable machine I take to meetings and such.
I configured it basically for home use, saved my home wifi and activate HTTP access in config.g, parameters set with M587 because I want it to connect it right away when it is at home.
I created macros to switch wifi modes and create an AP when I want to.

My problem is that when the machine is not at home and the wifi is not avaible it spams tons of error messages on startup in the connected PanelDue for 10-20 seconds which is really annoying. After that I am able to use my macro to disable wifi and reactivate it in AP mode.

Is there a way to get rid of those messages or make them not so critical that they don't use the message overlay and maybe are just in the console log?

Thanks...
Alexander

Hi dear community,
I want to add a Voron Stealthburner printhead to my new build which supports three NeoPixel LEDs.
The documentation tells that NeoPixels are supported but the 5V current on a Duet 3 Mini 5+ is limited to 1A so an external supply is required for a strip. But I want just three LEDs.
Each LED is rated about 60mA full bright white.
I have also a PanelDue 5i connected and the X/Y hall effect sensor on 5V.
The documentation also says internally the board uses 200-300mA, for the PanelDue I just find some only ratings between 280mA for 4.3'' and 650mA for 7''. No idea what the hall effect sensor board is rated but I don't think thats is much.
So lets assume 180mA for all three LEDs, 350mA for the PanelDue 5i and 300mA internal I use up to 830mA.
Is that reasonable?
Or is that too close to the maximum and what about 3.3V?
Is there and internal 3.3V usage?
I use 3.3V just for the Z endstop switch and a PINDA Z probe.

Cheers
Alexander

Thanks, looks good
