Duet and Simplify3D
I've finally got Simplify3D running, I like it a lot. I'm wondering if it will work with the Duet+Duex hardware running RepRap firmware? My Duet is still sat in its box waiting for something to put it...

Your options are to either use all the +12v (yellow cables) and all the Ground (Black cables in paralel) or simply cut them very short and solder them as a bunch on a much thicker cable to feed the...

You can run multiple wires to share the current. Presuming the supply and ground are the same gauge, you'll need just as many ground wires as supply. A single larger gauge wire may be easier to route...

I'd definitely like to try this. I have a ramps-fd v1 and cant find a v2. Having trouble with the bobc's marlin for due and repetier (which both supposedly support ramps-fd). Any luck on this? I'd...

Quotetwicx So from what I can tell, the plan is to take 3 x 12V wires and 3 x GND wires from the ATX and "group" them so that they all connect to the HB + and GND respectively. Then take a single +12V...

what firmware does the duet run? If it's standard Marlin or Repetier, it'll work

The Duet with RepRapFirmware emulates Marlin, but not perfectly. Most people with the Duet use the web interface to control it, because it provides more information and control than any of the USB...

Quotevreihen Meh. Great if you want to use RepRapFirmware with no Delta printer support, but a paperweight for the people who need 32-bit CPU performance the most (Delta printer owners). Someone could...

Excellent, this works for me. As an aside, do any printers ship with duet? I'd love to see more due based boards in circulation.

A few notes: 1. If you connect your heated bed sections in parallel, they will take 14A each at 12V (perhaps a little less after voltage drop in the wiring). That's 56A total, close to the limit of...

Quotetwicx 2. This one has 2, but from each +12V contact point on the board, there's about 6 x 18AWG wires coming from it. So I'm assuming that if I'm grouping 3 x +12V and 3 x GND for the heat bed,...

14A for the entire bed is much more reasonable. Unless you want the 200mm wide stuff, Amazon should be able to supply you with Kapton tape in a day or two.

Yes. One transistor can drive another although you may find it easier to integrate a solid state relay which is essentially the same thing in a tidy package.

My friend ordered lcd for himself, so i think i will wait when he receives it and will check with other one. Maybe its not my board, maybe its the lcd itself thats cousing the problems?
