I have set my z offset at .7 as reported by the M114 command after calibrating z home. But when i went to print i had to raise the nozzle using baby steps up .5. Do i need to add or subtract from my z zero that i set in the config. file to print correctly the next time?

Thanks DC, I found my problem. I had the HomeZ and HomeAll configured wrong for the Z axis

I am using the Duet WiFi:
Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet WiFi
Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.0
Firmware Version: 1.20beta8+1 (2017-11-18)
WiFi Server Version: 1.20b8
Web Interface Version: 1.19.3
The probe is set up:
M558 P5 ; Use a simple modulated Z probe
G31 P1000 X-25.5 Y0 Z0 ; Set the probe height and threshold (put your own values here)

I get the out put under Z probe: 1000 however it does not stop but continues down.
I am using a proximity sensor that has always worked not sure what is going on.

Looks good, I am waiting in line for one. I have a secure WiFi at work that will not allow me access to connect but it will be okay if it is Ethernet. I am tired of removing the SD card, i hope it will be available soon

@Guyaros:

Hi Ron,

I'm also using Cobra metal extruder.

Try these settings:
M906 X1000 Y1000 Z800 E1000 ; Set motor currents (mA)
M201 X800 Y800 Z15 E300 ; Accelerations (mm/s^2)
M203 X15000 Y15000 Z500 E2400 ; Maximum speeds (mm/min)
M566 X600 Y600 Z30 E120 ; Minimum speeds mm/minute

Thanks for the setting, my problem was wiring, most steppers I use it is a simple wire to wire ,however this stepper required a specific order. Once I figured it out it worked fine.
For us newbies it is nice to be able to find help

I installed the Version 1.02 and it still is resetting itself because of an exception.

It looked like it did update to latest firmware however the system screen still shows previous update

It looks like the update failed. Did you update over the web interface? If instead you copied the files directly on to the SD card on a PC, then you need to rename them to DuetWiFiFirmware.bin and DuetWebControl.bin before running M997 S0 and M997 s2.

Thanks David, I loaded the on the SD card and that did the trick. I am up and back to printing.

Just a question, When connected and running a print I can see the X, Y, and Z output in the upper right screen under machine status however I have no output from the extruder. How do i get the information of the extruder drive to out put here?

Perfect, working fine thanks

Am I missing something?

I just have what I ordered in Batch 2. I have recently ordered another DuetWifi Batch 5 to upgrade another printer. Anything you can do would be greatly appreciated,

@dc42:

Both baud rates default to 57600 so you should not need to change them. The usual cause of connection failure is a faulty cable. The colours of the wires should be in the exact opposite order at the two ends of the cable.

The screen comes up but in the at the top is a red bar that just says connecting. i have checked wires and they appear to be correct.

I have my DuetWifi and panelDue tried to connect but all i get is "connecting"? It never connects, I have made sure that my baud rate is set in both places correctly. What am i missing? I ordered both together thought it would have been tested to ensure it worked before it was sent out.

I am new to the Duet and would like to know if there are any issues using a mac with the duet wifi? Not a windows fan but if i have to have one i need to get something before mine arrives.

I did all setup and actual use from
my MacbookPro. No problems at all. Your initial setup may vary a bit from the documentation (port naming, etc), but Windows is not necessary.

Thanks, I will post when i am up and running.

Thanks, board arrives Tuesday, can't wait to get it installed and running.

Thanks, I get my board on Tuesday and want to get things up and running.

Is anyone using a MAC with the DuetWifi? I would like to know if there are any unexpected issues or just issues in general to using MAC vs Windows.
