Re: 32 bit RAMBo
Mine is a .4b board. David's link to his previous post can be updated with: Good points: - Is running and will come with RepRapFirmware - this is huge as RRF (David's excellent work is the best there is) - the connectors UltiMachine uses are the Molex positive latch http://www.molex.com/molex/produc...

Re: 32 bit RAMBo
I don't know the timing and plans. It has been in development for a while. I would say not "soon" but that's speculation based on what I heard.

I got an Archim at MRRF last weekend to test. I am putting it on my V3, replacing the Duet Wifi currently installed.

I'm not sure why you would say that? I have nothing to say one way or the other until I get some significant testing on it. You know that I don't jump on and wagons or slam products based on first impressions. I thoroughly test every product and idea before making any comments. I received the Nimble...

Re: Adventures in Noise Slaying
I can say that I ran my first Duet Wifi on my V1 Rostock Max with a 12V supply and it was as quiet as a mouse walking on felt. I have 6 Duet Wifis now on different config machines - mostly 24V - and they are all dead quiet. Folks at the MRRF that saw (and tried to hear) my Rostock Max V3 (tricked ou...

Re: Duet Ethernet is coming
Just to be clear, the Duet Wifi introduced last year is the state of the art Duet with many great features and superb stepper drivers. But it ONLY has a Wifi capability (and USB). This new product is that Duet Wifi with the Wifi module replaced with the electronics and port for wired ethernet. Other...

Yup, see: https://www.duet3d.com/forum/thread.php?id=1161
They use the same main board and simply mount an ethernet port and associated hardware where the Wifi module used to go.

I didn't get a beta of this board but my understanding is that only the ethernet changed. Now you can choose Wifi or Ethernet.

Re: Updating to MatterControl 1.7 ruins prints
Can the OP verify that they are able to take it a step further: did you then retry the previous MC to ensure that the part looks identical to the right side? did you save your g-code file from the previous version of MC and then print THAT EXACT g-code file in 1.7? The reason I ask is because the pa...

Re: RostockMAX V3 to Duet WiFi conversion instructions
Ok, I checked all my photos archive and I have that orange wore on + in every photo. I'm sure the fans worked but the schematics say it shouldn't so maybe I had an elderly moment. Most of the photos were taken on the same day.
I've since completely redone the wiring so I can't compare.

Re: Duet Wifi
Have realistic expectations though, many of the STLs on thingiverse are absolute crap - low polygon counts. You will never get a great print out of an inferior STL file. If you are designing your own models, learn how to tesselate properly-I have a post on my blog about how to get the best results.

This sounds like the "bed tilt" issue that many of us experienced earlier this year/late last year. Using the web based calibration based on David Crocker's implementation either manually (on the SeeMeCNC site) or via the Octoprint plug in significantly improved things. Which version of ca...

Mike, this is the sort of information I was looking for, thanks! As you know, so many people post comments like "it works" and they are correct - it works for their use case but maybe not others. The range of bed surfaces you list tells me the sensor is not sensitive to the "dampening...

Hey Mike, I don't know if you looked at FSRs with the JohnSL interface board. If not, you should. I have been running delta printers using this setup with absolutely perfect results for a couple of years, printing nearly everyday. Other than the initial install, which really was not a problem, I rea...

Re: Yet another Duet-to-HE280 accelerometer probe adapter
Have you looked at FSRs? They are an excellent solution that work under a wide variety of conditions, reliably. There is no reason why an effector/carriage couldn't be designed with an FSR rather than a piezoelectric sensor. But, on to your question, yes F1800 and that is at the low end. The stock S...

Yes, I've been following closely. Haven't made one yet. I spent sooooo much time trying to get the accelerometer probe to work that I put off dozens of projects.

My recommendation, and take it for what it's worth: Ditch the AstroSyns, they are not needed with the Duet WiFi and actually introduce enough wobble to affect part quality (slightly). E3D V6 Universal version WITHOUT the Bowden option - it's not needed. 12 V version Also realize, I gave up on gettin...

You can also use these techniques to add supports to STL models in exactly the same way, all it takes is a CAD program that can open STL files and can generate meshes and sa...
