I have it sorted. Wrong connection on the endstops. Have rewired and everything is homing nicely. An official board really helps. Thank you everyone who has helped if i have anymore issues will start a new thread.

I gotta lock up the factory but will be back on it tomorrow. Got new board but still can't home and now when i do try all axis move 5mm Z axis goes down first not up Y moves 5mm and so does X and all then say they are homed.

i'm sorry Veti but i don't know if i have jumpers or not i am not that technical.

I have just bought a duet 2 from E3D should be here wed. looking forward to getting this machine going and i may still need a little help. Thank you for all your advice. I guess we now know the problem with the z axis movement is down to a cloned board from an unreliable sorce.

Just reported it to my boss. He's not happy. So am guessing this in never gonna work with this board. Need an official borad.

Thank you guys for looking into this for me. I was lead to believe this was part of ooznest my apologies to Ryan. Here is a photo of the back of this board and now seeing the small print i fear that this is not an official one. If i need to purchase one i will do, where do i get them from? Are they are avalible? and how much are they.
many thanks

is this an official board or will i need to buy a new one please??

I believe buffalo cnc are part of ooznest. Here is a picture of our board.
Many Thanks

it was bought from a company called Buffalo cnc on 19th august 2020. It is a router that come as a flat pack with a duet2 wifi board.

ok don't have to change anything form limit switches thats cool. Next problem. when i go to home X i get a 5mm movement from z then a 5 mm movement from X, the same with Y axis a 5mm movement from Z then 5 mm movement from Y, and when homing Z just a 5mm movement. Any help please

That i did think about but i know the company that supplied me with machine and card has gone under due to covid-19 thats what his email said. so my next question is do i need to change anything so my limit switches will work on z axis?

Fantastic. Thank you so much, that has worked. I just know i gonna have more question. T
hanks guys and girls

Hi all
Looking for more help. I have a buffalo cnc router running duet2 wifi and my z axis wont move. I have movement in y and x axis. I am just testing out the connections and making sure all axis move. for some reason z is not. I have rewired and checked all connections again still no movement on z so i changed the stepper motors over and plugged the z axis motor into x and the motor moves so, that says to me that the wiring is ok, the motor is ok, so must be a config problem? could anyone help please

thank you that works

Hello everyone.
i am very very new to this so please go easy with me. i have recently bought a buffalo cnc machine that has duet2 wifi board. I have been able to connect with yat and put the relivent commands in to turn the wifi on. I now come to the DWC. I am asked to "locate the firmware files that came with machine and unzip them onto the pc, which i have done (put on desktop) then to open DWC "click upload under settings-General tab in DWC" now when i do that i get bthe error an ajax error has.......... so now i cannot loads the setting of the size of bed i am using or any of the other settings. Having looked on the forum site i don't know if this is of use but the firmware version is Software Information
