David, I am having trouble with Z height reliability. I am using your Z IR probe, I have a slightly tinted glass heat bed approx. 6mm thick. I have placed a piece of black paper under the glass at my home location. I test it by homing the printer then entering G1 Z0 and most of the time the Z gap is tight against the glass (to tight to print first layer). I repeat the procedure with G92 Z0 after adjusting the Z gap then runG30 S-1 and enter value in M558. Is there anything I can do to improve this.

I am running 2.02

I own a Formlabs Form2 SLA printer, at the beginning and end of a print I receive a text message on my phone. Is this a possible option with a Duet WIFI/Ethernet? What is needed to get this to work?

Great Idea!!!!

I'm trying to install it on my DuetEthernet board. I renamed it "DuetEthernetFirmware.bin

David, I'm running RC2 on my Ethernet board. I downloaded RC3, renamed it according to the notes and when I upload it all it does is install in the config folder. The error message is M997 S0 cant find WifiFirmware. Not sure what to do with that. It installed and updated fine on my WiFi Boards

I tried that. now the board will not start. I removed the SDcard and copied the iap4e and the DuetEthernetFirmware.bin to the card. How do I install the .bin file using the console on the panel due? M997 is for the WIFI.

DuetEthernetFirmware.bin confirmed on DWC system editor. It copied to the config file and I even tried M997 S0. When I click "yes" to update the panel Due flashes briefly but the update does not happen. M115 still shows V1.20 I thought I had installed 1.21 RC1 but that must not have taken either.

I renamed the .bin file for my Ethernet board. It seems to upload but the version on DWC does not reflect the change. M115 shows 1.20. It uploaded to my 2) WIFI boards fine

Duke, compare my config to yours

David, I posted the config file not the original poster

Here is my config and homeall for my CubeX Duo should be similar.
I also have the same for my Trio with a Z probe if you need that.

;*** If you have a modulated IR probe with on-board microcontroller, change P2 to P1 in the following
;M558 P1 X25 Y250 Z1 H3 F200 T5000 ; smart IR Z probe, used for homing Z axis only, dive height 3mm, probe speed 200mm/min, travel speed 5000mm/min
;G31 P534 X25 Y250 Z1.80 ; set threshold and offsets
;M558 P1 F300 ; Use a simple modulated Z probe (change to P1 for an intelligent Z probe)

2 WiFi's and 1 Ethernet board all printing fine. No WiFi disconnects. Seems very stable

Thank you. Happy New Year!!!!!

Any other advantages to the v3 board over the v1.1?

David, there is no "PanelDues to 1.20RC1" as you indicate above.

I have 3) V1.1 PanelDue boards running 1.16 with 7" screens. I am running 1.20.1RC1 Firmware on my DuetWiFi.

1. What version firmware for the PanelDue do I update to v2 or v3?
2. Can I update the PanelDue firmware from the DWC yet?

I have 3) V1.1 PanelDue boards running 1.16 with 7" screens. What version firmware to update to? Can I update from the DWC yet?

I am using this in my Starting Script with Simplify3D
T0
M109 S[extruder1_temperature]

It is working as expected however it is also setting the Standby temp. Is there a way of not setting the Standby temp?

All set guys…. I got it using SAM. Thank you for your input and Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year

Update…. I have erased the board. It is connected to Bossa Program Port COM6. From the command line cd C:/Temp I have entered the "bossac.exe -e -u -v -b DuetEthernetFirmware.bin" which I have in my Temp folder. I get the error that no device found on COM6 even though the Device mgr shows that the board is connected to COM6.

Oh, Got ya. I have 4 Duet Wifi's, must be habit. I still cant upgrade the board! It shows it is upgrading but the version doesn't change. Do I have to put the new firmware on the SD card with my PC instead of uploading it direct?
