@clearlynotstef said in Pwm 5v pin duet wifi 2 gcode:

Alternatively, if I can't get a 5v pin with or without pwm, I'll see what happens if I just give it a 3.3v pwm signal. Presumably it'll just run between 0-60% or so? Is there a preferred pin to use for this with pwm? What's the gcode look like to create a pwm pin and assign it to be the part cooling fan?

PWM means Pulse Width Modulation. It is not controlling the actual voltage output, just how long the pin is on for. 50% PWM means that the pin is on, at 3.3V, for half the time. By 'time', I mean the frequency set by the M950 Q parameter. So no, it won't be on at 60%. It's just whether 3.3V is a sufficient voltage to trigger the fan controller to turn on.

@clearlynotstef, if your MOSFET will get shorted, the heater will run on 24V at four time it's power, like 160W.

What kind of heaters are you using? Do they have non standard dimensions?

@clearlynotstef, my preference is for quiet fans, so I don't think I can help. 😉

Ha. I guess I'm not being a very good salesman. How's this... BUY THREE, one for you, one for your friend, and one for the missus.

@t3p3tony I'll try over from scratch later, when I did the same thing and got to endstops it wouldn't select the smart effector. I also had problems on that page selecting "high" for the endstops at the top, when I refreshed twice then I was able to. We'll see how it goes from scratch.

In that case, there is no problem with loading different M307 in a macro. config-override.g is just a macro itself.

@clearlynotstef said in Phaetus Hotend/ 713 Adapter? [Pic]:

@dougal1957 doesn't align with the hotend holes, only the outside holes would align

I guessed that would be the issue however I am informed by a friend that if you speak to 713maker he will do custom work and for him to just counterbore 4 additional holes shouldn't be a big for him also have you tried using button head screws instead of cap screws that would reduce the hight of the heads considerably and may allow for the 12mm collar to actually seat in the effector and locate it all.

They are also useful for crimping the ends of bike brake cables so they don't unravel. Of course you do it after passing them through the bowden tube. 😉

@clearlynotstef said in Loop commands?:

Yeah 3.x just sounds like a whole lot of configuring to avoid some copy pasting. Thanks all!

..I guess "if it ain't broke it doesn't have enough features" comes to mind..

if its a machine you tweak then 3.1.1 is a worth while upgrade imo, and far less hassle than it was before 3.1.1, the online configurator and community as a whole matured to the level its currently at.

reverting to 2.x is pretty simple if you keep the old config as well (I've used bossac and ftp for going back and forth which is bulletproof when testing the earlier versions)

What you show for the converter should work. Assuming the screw was adjusted so it outputs 12V

Edit: Board wiring looks correct.

Double check that converter is outputting 12V

@clearlynotstef said in Best way to have two sets of settings?:
............... Wanted to confirm though that if I put the few lines that are different (m665 mostly, maybe dive height of probe) in a macro I can just run it and that's that? .....................

Yes you can do that. Any commands that are in the macro will override any previous instances of the same commands.

@jay_s_uk Doh! I'm sorry I missed the last word of your post.

Any idea?

So I just did another print that turned out nicely (with 1-300% tolerance so I'm not pausing constantly) and ran a 591 after it finished

M591 D0
Duet3D magnetic filament monitor on input 3, enabled, sensitivity 25.78mm/rev, allow 1% to 300%, check every 5.0mm, version 3, mag 129 agc 114, measured sensitivity 25.92mm/rev, min 64% max 105% over 11571.1mm

Are we thinking the magnet is too far?

@boldnuts nice! That's a good idea.

@Tony-Owens basically I it comes down to different takes on what would cause artifacts. I do not think my frame will cause issues. It's all 2040, not particularly big, metal corners, strapped tightly to the table with ratchet straps, and gains some additional stability from the 6mm Plexi attaching each tower to both neighbors the whole length of the tower. My thought is I'd best minimize artifacts by minimizing the moving mass on the effector/arms/belts. I'm currently using a flying effector attached via elastic to the carriages and happy with the results but want to see how fast I can get quality prints, and that bouncing on mass isn't going to help at higher speeds. This plan takes keeps the Bowden very short, but moves the mass of the extruder to a completely separate motion system. I'd share 2040 but otherwise it's weight is not shared to the hotend, different belts, arms, carriages and rods. I don't think sharing a frame is going to impact the effector personally, but am always open to other views!

Weirdly, I can't reproduce this now. Earlier I had the typical relative code in my config, which I tried to overwrite by running the absolute E code as a macro and it seems that it doesn't take. Once I put it in config.g, it seems to work fine. At least I think that's what happened, anyway, all's well that ends well!
