Thank you so very much. I really appreciate your help. Settings on the printer/board is not something I do and therefor I appreciate your help & time.

Yes it's possible to go back and forth, though you probably won't want to.

@deonholt said in Please help me update Duet Web Control:

Backup your existing config files in the sys folder in case you want to switch back to RRF2. It’s easy to switch back and forth, just upload the zip file for the version you want and then upload your config files.

@Veti
Yes, I have learned that. I am not comfortable doing it myself at this stage. Will do it later some time.

Thanks again. You have been a great help. The think I like for now the most is that I can change the baby-steps' increments.

There are some Z moves in your start and end code, try adding ; E to them so that the DWC picks up the E and assumes it's an extrusion move and ignores them as Z moves.

In the start code: G1 Z5 F5000 ; lift nozzle 5mm and G1 Z0.28 F240

In the end code: G1 Z20 F500 ; lower bed 20mm from current position

If that doesn't work, you can try splitting out the Z moves into separate macros at calling them with M98 P

Are you now able to set the baby stepping values in the DWC settings pages?

the end code is supposed to turn of the heater for hotend and bed.

if it does that and you are satisfied then you can leave it.

some people want wipe or other stuff, but that is based on their requirements.

G29 S1
loads the last mesh
add tp your slicer start code after G28

Strictly speakly G29 S1 loads the existing height map.

The "mesh" is what you define with M557 and is used to create the height map.

Thanks. That is the article I quoted but don't understand everything.

M566 X700.00 Y700.00 Z240.00 E5000.00 ; set maximum instantaneous speed changes (mm/min) M203 X18000.00 Y18000.00 Z1000.00 E12000.00 ; set maximum speeds (mm/min) M201 X1500.00 Y1500.00 Z120.00 E5000.00 ; set accelerations (mm/s^2)

Speed acceleration and jerk are defined in your config.g here.

You can also specify M204 P T which is acceleration for print and travel moves, so you can have faster travel moves.

M205 etc are the marlin gcode commands for those things. they are also supported in reprap, so it's really up o you what you want to use.

Well if they are both the same then it might make sense to use the same description for both.

Thanks, just wanted to make sure that this is what it means. 👍

@Veti
Thank you SO MUCH, guys.

M557 X0:173 Y0:205 P3 did it. I REALLY appreciate your time & patience. 👏 🏅

@deonholt You've created several posts now asking basically the same questions. I suggest you stick to a single thread. It will really help people provide help if all the relevant info is in a single place.

@fcwilt thanks for your reply.
I am very new to 3D printing and a week into Duet.
My bed 's (mirror) printable size is 220 x 220.
I will quickly try out as per your suggestion.
Thanks again.

M208 is the bed size. Or rather it;s the size of the reachable area.

0,0 should be the front left corner where the nozzle is just at the corner of the printable area.

The minima may be negative if the nozzle can go farther left or to the front of the 0,0 point before it touches the endstop. The maxima value is how far you can physically move to the right and back from that 0,0 point.

post your config and other files

Use the static test from the test and calibrate z probe link to see if it's working.

If it doesn't seem like it's being applied, even though it's active, then there may be some other issues.

Please post some more information for us, like
What board are you using?
What firmware version?
Post your config.g, homeall, homez, bed.g files.
Post your slicer start gcode.
Post a photo of the heightmap.
The results of M122 never hurt either.

Here's an entire calibration routine you might find handy.
