Hello everybody,

First, I would like to say a big thanks for all this work already done and all the available information.

I am a new user of the duetWifi with paneldue. I was wondering if there was any chance to be helped to add some background images to the actual pages in the paneldue firmware.

I am using eclipse and I am into the sources but...

It is easy to change the splashscreen or the colorscheme but I don't see any possibility to add a custom background. Should I write it?

Many thanks!

Jonathan.

Okay.

So first relevant information :
I can now read from the PanelDue with an Arduino and the SerialSoftware Libary (native in arduino IDE)

I have used an 9600 baudrate to read the data from DuetPanel.

In example :

When I press the home button from the PanelDue, I got

N439 M408 S0*98

This means the G-code is sent over serial and can be used on UART port.

So I am gonna try now to create a small interface in Nextion with a button that send the same... Let's see.

@JoergS5 : I guess using the nextion editor, with your config for your hardware should work as well.

My intention is to get a customized interface with a library to choose some defined models to print... 5as we can see on several other printers)

I come back.

Cheers.

Ok... Good. I though the firmware was only available in .bin format.

Thanks for this sources. I got work ahead now. Thank you.

Maybe do you want me to post any relevant information about this progress?
I see that it is not yet much extended.

Rgds,

John

Hey! Thanks for your reply!

That's it! I have connected the panel due to an arduino to read over the serial port...

But I don't know the baudrate. I tried several... but I only get weird characters.
Do you maybe know what should I use to read that?

I tried with software serial library. And also a simple read as FTDI but... I see on the panel due that it seems to be an UART port.

I am not sure of this... I can do a firmware for the nextion but I need to know what should nextion send as code. I have read Paneldue send G-code over serial. Ok... But how?

Thanks a lot!

Hi everybody,

I am actually working on a duetwifi model. I would like to use a nextion panel to do the job instead of the duetpanel.

I try to read data from the paneldue to do the same with nextion and to be able to communicate with duetwifi.

But.... I have connected the paneldue to an arduino. I tried to read the data on serial port and even I2C. But I can't get relevant datas.

Has someone already tried this?

The goal is indeed to have a customized panel. Maybe there is another way with the paneldue?

Thanks a lot already for your replies.

Rgds,

John.
