@dc42 Will try. Thanks David

@jay_s_uk That's super awesome.
Thanks!

Hi @T3P3Tony,

Would you mind sharing a quick and simple guide on how to change the color of the header in Duet Web Control? I'm not very experienced with web development, but I’d love to customize it a bit.

From what I’ve gathered, the styles seem to be in the app.*.css file in the DWC files. Can I just modify that directly to change the header color?

Or is there a better way to do it? I imagine that file is auto-generated, so maybe any updates would overwrite my changes? I guess that the
src/App.vue on the DuetWebControl repo could be the one?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi,
I'm planning on adding a moving average function to average an analog input and trigger some actions if that decreases too much.
for that, i'm declaring an array of the tension in the config.g

global TensionAverage = {0,0,0,0,0,0} ;list of 6 tension to average the tension in a moving average

And in a macro called by deamon.g is the following. with parameter P being the analog senor reading

;Tension WatchDog

;tension average: list of 1 elements, move element i to i+1. scrap element 5. add current to element 0
var i = 5
var average = 0
while var.i>0
    set global.TensionAverage[var.i] = global.TensionAverage[var.i-1]
    set var.average = var.average + global.TensionAverage[var.i]
    set var.i = var.i -1
set global.TensionAverage[0]=param.P
set var.average = var.average + global.TensionAverage[0]

set var.average = var.average /6
echo "average: "^{var.average}

if var.average < global.TensTreshold*0.5
    m98 P"/sys/tension-error.g"

But in line 7, i got this error:
"error: in file macro line 7 column 70: meta command: Cannot index into variable or parameter 'TensionAverage^' of non-array type"

so, my question is, is there a more efficient way to get the moving average with Gcode/metacomands?
how can i cast it to an array?
Thanks!

Hi
I’m working on a project where I need to store some calibration parameters in a file within a /calib/ directory on the SD card. I was wondering if there’s a way to access the data from that file and load it into an array variable for further use. Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I’m experiencing issues with axis tuning. The mechanical setup is as follows:

A motor with an integrated brake and quadrature encoder.
A coupling connects the motor to a leadscrew.
A magnetic encoder is mounted on the opposite end of the motor due to limited access to the axis.
The calibration fails, likely due to backlash or counts/step mismatch. Here are the errors I’m seeing:

Power up + 00:00:29 [warn] Error: Driver 122.0 calibration failed, measured backlash (0.639 step) is too high.
Power up + 00:00:29 [warn] Warning: Driver 122.0 failed to maintain position, tuning/calibration failed.
Power up + 00:00:25 [warn] Error: Driver 122.0 calibration failed, the measured motion was less than expected, measured counts/step is about 66.8.

Is there a way to use only the quadrature encoder for calibration to bypass the backlash issue?
How can I resolve those problems?

Hi @dc42,

I was running in standalone mode.
Thanks for the "M409 K"boards[1].drivers[0].closedLoop" command; it revealed an incompatibility with the DWC, which was resolved after an update.

BR.

@dc42
It's curious that when accessing the average error (boards[1].drivers[0].closedLoop.currentFraction.avg), the output is a value. However, for positionError, it seems to return an object.

Interestingly, both are specified as value in the object model of the DWC.

Am I correct in assuming that the real-time PID error is part of the positionError? How can i acess that?

Thanks!

Thanks in advance!
