Glad it's working.

Thank you for the reply, Dave. Is it correct to say that if there WAS a problem that the DIAG light would be lit and also some sort of DIAG error message within webserver?

No, the DIAG light isn't automatically lit. It's more of a debugging aid than a diagnostic light.

So, it is, or isnt normal for the DIAG light to remain lit 24/7 with the IR sensor coded in config.g?

You mentioned that some programming of M558 will trigger it which makes sense but I'm trying to make sure and understand that the board, even with the DIAG light lit is ok and functional 100%. Can you please explain how I would un-comment or program the duet 2 wifi in such a way where I could test the normal functionality of said DIAG light?

EDIT: I am working with a 2 pin endstop on the Y axis and had it plugged into the first 2 pins. Will I be able to use a 2 wire endstop?

I think you'll need to use the two outer pins.

The solution to your error messages lies with these config.g lines

; Axis Limits M208 X0 Y0 Z0 S1 ; Set axis minima M208 X230 Y230 Z250 S0 ; Set axis maxima ; Z-Probe G31 X-75 Y-45 P500 Z3.07 ; Set Z probe offset M557 X-8:220 Y0:220 S20 ; Define mesh grid

M208 sets up the area of your bed that the nozzle can reach.
G31 sets up where your probe is in relation to the nozzle.
M557 sets up where you want the probe grid to start and end.

So if you start with the area given by the M208, subtract the offset of the probe from the nozzle, you will get an M557 that should be fully reachable by the probe.

M557 X0:155 Y0:185 I believe that should be your bed area reachable by your probe. X0,Y0 to X155,Y185. Because of the negative offset of the probe, there is an area of the bed that cannot be reached on the back and right sides, but such is life.

If the hot end heater, heatsink fan and print cooling fan all use the VIN voltage, then they can share a common +VIN wire between the Duet and the hot end. The filament sensor and X endstop may be able to share a common ground wire. However, i do not recommend sharing that ground wire with the heatsink fan. Also the two thermistor wires should not be shared with anything else.

Yeah I think you got it now.

So you take the result of G30 S-1 from the console, and put that in G31 Z.
Then if you still need to adjust the first layer with baby stepping you can use that value to fine tune the G31 Z value.

If you hook the led strip directly to the power supply (with the buck converter installed in between) does the strip light up?

@dc42 At the time, no. I transferred a file over to the /gcode folder and was able to see it on the Panledue. It's my understanding that you are only able to see files in the /gcode folder to select for printing?

Yes, you can see files in /gcodes and its subfolders. If you press the Macros button, you can see files in /macros and its subfolders.

Thanks. Z-Height Calibration I think is Macro #1 on the promega. Forgot about that.
