    duet 2 wifi

    Posted by james williamson on May 13th 2022

    it took some doing to update to 3.4.0..
    no sd card so i used the config tool to burn one then the web app needs to be downgraded to 2.xx by coping from github to the www file so it connects then you will need to get iap4e.bin to update to 3.0.0
    before you can update to latest 3.4 .
    so far i like it..

    Felt kind of bad buying a knockoff

    Posted by Clinton Thomas on Dec 17th 2020

    I own two of these clones and eight genuine Duet2 Wifi controllers. All controlling printers that run almost 24/7. I did have an issue with a melted VIN connector on one of the clones but I might have been a little heavy-handed tightening the screw terminal (I'm an industrial mechanic) so I won't count that against it. It was easy enough to repair, anyway.

    I stand behind my original review, though. Copying someone's product then relying on THEIR documentation/support is pretty shitty. So still knocking off one star.

    Good Quality - No issues

    Posted by Will on Nov 4th 2019

    I also believe that the review by Clinton is quite unfair. As with anything in the 3d printing world, you should be doing some research before pulling the trigger. If you did enough resource to find a Duet 2 Wifi that is not sold by duet you should at least have the knowledge on where to look when setting it up...

    That being said, I've bought two of these from ZylTech and they are both good quality and came/work exactly as described. No complaints from me!

    Re: No Documentation

    Posted by Art on Sep 21st 2019

    I think Clinton's review about documentation missing isn't fair. I own a genuine Duet and PanelDue and the genuine Duet does not come with documentation either. It just has a small card that says goto the Duet Wiki (duet3d.dozuki.com) for instructions. The genuine PanelDue doesn't come with any paper or card at all. I think the rating should be based on the quality or defects in the workmanship of the clone.

Never be disconnected from your Duet power 3D printer thanks to the PanelDue touchscreen

Installing any Duet3D controller board in a 3D printer is a fantastic upgrade that every hacker and tinkerer should experience at some point. Duet mainboards are powerful and feature-rich, but controlling the machine still requires a network-connected computer or directly connected device via USB. Adding a PanelDue touchscreen makes the power of a Duet board available at the machine, regardless of network connectivity or computer availability. Never be disconnected from your 3D printer again with an integrated PanelDue touchscreen.

PanelDue 7i Integrated Touchscreen

No matter what your setup, there is a PanelDue that fits and installs to the Duet board easily

Every maker is a unique individual with specific needs, and therefore not every 3D printer is exactly the same. For those who choose to upgrade their hardware with high-performance components, the Duet3D platform of mainboards and accessories is a great choice. The Duet controller boards all have direct connectivity to any of their PanelDue touchscreens, which are available in both 5 and 7-inch variants to suit any maker's needs. Both are 800x480 resolution, the 7 inch simply offers a larger display. Each PanelDue connects to the mainboard via a 4-pin cable that is provided and has a dedicated connection point on the Duet board.

MKS TS35 touch screen connection to BigTreeTech SKR boards.

Despite the wide range of 3D printing electronics manufactured by BIQU, in terms of screens, the offer is limited to Smart Screen in various sizes. Such a screen is a standalone print server that does not know anything about the internal structure of the printer, so its ability to configure printer settings is very, very limited. Three proposed models can work in 12864 screen emulation mode with full access to the printer menu, but using screen 3, A 5 inch screen to display such a picture looks somewhat wasteful.

An alternative is the MKS TS35 screen, never smart, but connected to standard EXP1 / EXP2 connectors. This screen does not have its own microcontroller and the main board firmware is responsible for rendering the picture. Support for TFT screens in Marlin is for STM32F1 / F4 and for LPC176x , I will connect the screen, respectively, to SKR Mini v1.1 and SKR v1.3. Initially, MKS TS35 was made for use with MKS Robin Nano v2.x and v3.x, but thanks to a successful pinout, it is also on friendly terms with other boards.

The first thing to keep in mind is MKS' alternate take on EXP1/EXP2 connectors. The problem is not new and has been going on since the 2004 and 12864 screens. Compared to RepRap electronics, MKS uses reversed EXP1/EXP2 connectors. Three standard solutions:

  • remove the plastic part of the connectors and put it in the other direction with the wrench
  • cut the wrench on the cable connectors (on one side) and plug them in with the reverse side
  • take the cable for connecting RepRap controllers to MKS 9 boards0022

Pins for connecting MKS TS35 to SKR Mini V1. 1 and SKR V1.3 are already registered in the corresponding PINS.H files. For other board it may be necessary to add the following lines 

 #DEFINE EXPin #DEFINE BTN_ENC EXP1_02_PIN #define BTN_EN2                    EXP2_05_PIN  #define TFT_CS_PIN                 EXP1_07_PIN  #define TFT_SCK_PIN                EXP2_02_PIN  #define TFT_MISO_PIN               EXP2_01_PIN  #define TFT_MOSI_PIN               EXP2_06_PIN  #define TFT_DC_PIN                 EXP1_08_PIN  #define TFT_A0_PIN                  TFT_DC_PIN  #define TFT_RESET_PIN              EXP1_04_PIN  #define LCD_BACKLIGHT_PIN          EXP1_03_PIN  #define TFT_BACKLIGHT_PIN    LCD_BACKLIGHT_PIN  #define TOUCH_BUTTONS_HW_SPI  #define TOUCH_BUTTONS_HW_SPI_DEVICE          1  #define TOUCH_CS_PIN EXP1_05_PIN #define TOUCH_SCK_PIN EXP2_02_PIN #d Efine Touch_Miso_pin Exp2_01_pin #define Touch_mosi_pin Exp2_06_pin #define lcd_read_id3 #define lcd_use_spi #define tft_buffer_size 2400 900 900 900

The TOUCH_BUTTONS_HW_SPI_DEVICE parameter must be configured in accordance with the hardware SPI used. To reduce the load on the microcontroller, data is output from the buffer to the screen using DMA, so the buffer size cannot exceed the maximum value of the controller's DMA counter. A rake for the LPC176x was carefully dug in this place . The capabilities of the DMA controller in these MCUs are limited to transmitting 4095 (0xFFF) 8 or 16 bit values. For comparison, the DMA controller in STM32 can transmit up to 65535 (0xFFFF) of these values. carried out in small portions and visually slower than the STM32.

It remains to set the appropriate parameters in Configuration.h: My encoder has a tendency to jump over the line, so its excessive zeal is limited by parameter 

 #define ENCODER_PULSES_PER_STEP 5

interface use 

 #define TFT_COLOR_UI

Enable touch screen support 

 #define TOUCH_SCREEN

We compile, flash and enjoy the result.

The #define LCD_LANGUAGE parameter will be handled with care. If used incorrectly, depending on the freshness of the code, you can get either unreadable digits or unreadable (for most) hieroglyphs. known to the user.

If the selected language does not use kanji characters (i.e. not Korean, not Chinese and not Japanese), then in Configuration_adv.h: still not supported) 

 #define UTF_FILENAME_SUPPORT

(Optional) enable support for long filenames when working via COM port. 

 #define LONG_FILENAME_HOST_SUPPORT#define LONG_FILENAME_WRITE_SUPPORT

Support for unicode and additional character sets is still pending in the main repository at the time of writing. https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/pull/25073
