@jay_s_uk We were doubtful about connecting Nema 23 motors directly to 6 HC boards. I hope it doesnt need any external stepper drivers, isnt it? If the current is less than 5A, we can directly connect 4 wires to the board.

thank you @droftarts
Can we run stepper motors with separate power like few motors with 24V DC and few motors with 48V DC (Like the Big Tree Tech Octopus Pro board)?

@jay_s_uk Thank you for responding
I'm unable to Reply from my personal account @Prathik
Here we are not sure whether the Orbiter Extruder motor can handle 48V DC power supply.
I don't want to use 24V power supply separately for the Orbiter Extruder, we want to connect it directly to the Duet 3 6HC MB Stepper Output terminals.

https://www.trianglelab.net/products/orbiter-extruder-v20?VariantsId=10239
this extruder has NEMA 14 36mm pancake stepper motor with the following rating

• Current/phase - 1.0 A
• Resistance/phase - 2.1*(1+/-15%) Ohms
• Inductance/phase - 1.6*(1+/-20%) mH

We require support regarding this.

Thank you.

@stuartofmt I am not sure what has happened.

Automatically the plugin got installed. Now it is working fine.

We have the 'DuetPi Management Plugin' installed. Is it the one which made the installation?

Another question:

1. Can we make the auto pause at every layer change and take a pic? (The famous one with Octoprint)

Thanks for the support

Hi @stuartofmt I'm trying to install the plugin, got this error while installing.

Couldn't install Plugin

@stuartofmt We have changed the DuetLapse3.config as recommended, still auto resume is occurring.

@stuartofmt Please find the config file data:

-duet 192.168.29.90
-port 8082
-basedir /opt/dsf/sd/DuetLapse3
-camera1 stream
-weburl1 http://DP500:8081/0/stream
-seconds 20
-detect pause
-verbose
-keepfiles
-restart

Recently installed DuetLapse3 plugin, the plugin is working fine we are able to get the time lapse video.

We have tried this

• Stopped the DuetLapse3 plugin and tested pause function
• here pause is working fine, I'm able to pause the print and its not resuming automatically.
  But when I run DuetLapse3 plugin the print is automatically resuming after giving pause. When pause the print is getting paused, after few seconds again it's resuming.
  We've tried different settings in DuetLapse3.config file but still the problem is occurring.

@chrishamm As mentioned earlier, we tried to install Tool Alignment Vision' plugin from community. It didnt get install properly. Then we reinstalled the original Duet Pi image back to RPI.

@chrishamm @jay_s_uk When I run the command /opt/dsf/bin/CodeLogger -t pre
we found that after pause, it is immediately triggering M24.
Then it runs resume.g and resuming the print.

I checked all the sys files. Nowhere I am finding this M24.

@jay_s_uk no not using.

We are using the machine for last 4 months. We tried to install 'Tool Alignment Vision' plugin from community. It didnt get install properly. Then we reinstalled the original Duet Pi image back to RPI.

This has happened 3 days back only. From that onwards it is behaving like this.

We reinstalled everything properly.

Hello all,

We are using Duet 6 XD with SBC.

Usually when we pause the print, it will be in pause condition till we resume it.
But now for the last 3 days, after pausing, it is resuming automatically within 10 seconds.
We tried slicing in different slicers. But it auto resumes within 10-12 seconds.

Duet Web Control 3.4.5
Board: Duet 3 MB6XD (MB6XD)
DSF Version: 3.4.5
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 3 MB6XD 3.4.5 (2022-11-30)

Below you can find the configuration files

Hi...!
We are using a USB webcam HP w200 HD 720P 30 FPS connected to RaspberryPi in SBC mode
here when I open the time lapse video in full screen mode the quality of the video is not clear enough.
When I open the webcam in motion plugin the image is clearer

Time lapse are blur
This is the screenshot when I play the time lapse in the video player
I've added a reference image

This is my DuetLapse3.config file

-duet 192.168.29.90
-port 8084
-basedir /opt/dsf/sd/DuetLapse3
-camera1 usb 
-weburl1 http://camera-url
-seconds 20
-verbose
-keepfiles
-restart

Could you help us with the configuration to obtain clear HD time lapse

Thank you

Hi all,

We recently installed DuetLapse3. The output quality in this plugin is less.

The same camera with Motion plugin is giving good results.

How to change the pixels quality in DuetLapse3?

Thanks

Thanks...! @dc42
Do we need to connect resistor in series with the circuit or only capacitor is enough..?

Hi there..!

Requesting for support on where to connect the 10000uF capacitor in order to implement power failure resume.

Using Duet3 6XD mother board with Raspberry Pi SBC mode....
The RPi is powered using a DC-DC USB converter

I've gone through the documentation but couldn't figure out exactly how to connect the capacitor.

https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Tuning/Resume here its given that we need to add a 10000uF capacitor across the VIN rail in order to get more time for the duet board and RPi to save the last data.

In this forum link it's bit confusing on where exactly to add the capacitor https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/19468/resume-from-power-outage-really-only-with-24v/13?_=1680523965649

I'm assuming that we can connect the capacitor as given below

thanks

Hi everyone

We've tried to find the location of folders on SD card, followed the documentation and checked each folder for the files . But couldn't figure out location of files on SD card.
I'm able to see the files on Duet Web Control and we've also given many prints.

These were the only files on the SD card

Uploading files from DWC is time consuming
I need to upload folders in the SD card could you help with this..!

Thank you

issue resolved Could this problem occur again?

Hi all!
Could you please help with this
We are facing this issue since a long time and looked in the forum for solution couldn't figure out

Using the following

• Duet3 6XD MB
• RPi SBC
• 7inch HDMI display

when printer is powered on, DWC on the bootup screen is not running showing the following error.
But when I open the same(printers IP) IP address on the RPI google chrome I'm able to open the DWC and also able to access the DWC on laptop.

We require DWC on the bootup screen could you support.

Thanks regards
