Author: Dozuki System (and 6 other contributors) Create a Guide 5 Categories Getting Started Printer Specific Guides Duet Hardware Duet Web Control RepRapFirmware Introduction Welcome to the Wiki for the Duet 2 (Wifi, Ethernet Maestro), Duet 0.8.5, and the Duet 0.6 - a family of control boards for 3D printers and other similar robots. For the Wiki section covering Duet 3 please click on Duet Hardware above and follow the link to Duet 3. These control boards are based on a 32-bit ARM processor, running RepRapFirmware . The Duet family can all be controlled through a web interface , but they also support a touchscreen called the PanelDue . They all have a connector for an expansion board containing additional stepper drivers and I/O circuitry - the Duex 2 and Duex 5 for the Duet 2 (WiFi and Ethernet), and the legacy DueX4 for the Duet 0.6 and 0.8.5, and START HERE If you have a Duet 2 Wifi or Duet 2 Ethernet please see the Step by step guide to using your Duet 2 to get started. If you have a Duet 2 Maestro head to the Maestro documentation If you have a Duet 3 please go to Getting Started With Duet 3 For troubleshooting please start with the FAQ Documentation Categories Developer Information Duet 2 Hardware Duet Hardware Duet Web Control Getting Started RepRapFirmware Troubleshooting Quick Links Gcode FAQ Hardware Features The links below contain information the features of the Duet 3d printer electronics and compatible addon hardware Duet 2 (Wifi and Ethernet) Features Duex 2 and Duex 5 Addon Hardware Getting started with the Duet 2 WiFi or Ethernet If you are not familiar with Duet electronics or RepRapFirmware Wiring and hardware differences from RAMPS etc Firmware differences from Marlin, Repetier etc Adapting an existing printer to Duet Slicing recommendations Using Duet Web Control List of RepRapFirmware Supported Gcode s If you are already familiar with Duet electronics and RepRapFirmware Hardware differences from the Duet 0.8.5 Firmware file names Changes to config gcodes and firmware behaviour Quick start guide Prerequisites for using the Duet Hardware limitations and known firmware issues Getting connected to the Duet Wiring your Duet Checking the firmware versions and updating the firmware Choosing components to work with your Duet electronics Choosing stepper motors Choosing and connecting a bed heater Choosing the power supply Choosing a Z probe Choosing an extruder drive Choosing temperature sensors Hardware and Wiring (Gen 2 Duets) The connectors and general layout of the board are summarized in the Duet 2 Wiring Diagrams .

Nevertheless it is a good idea to update your Duet to the most recent stable firmware. Where to get Duet firmware, software and drivers Contributing to firmware development There is also a fair amount of information about the firmware http://reprap.org/wiki/RepRap_Firmware including a http://reprap.org/wiki/RepRap_Firmware_m... . Updating Firmware and Duet Web Control Installing and Updating Firmware Firmware configuration RepRapFirmware is highly configurable so it needs to be setup for your specific printer to work. Considerable customisation is also possible, It is recommended to read the Cartesian printer section below even if you have a Delta or CoreXY as there is general information there that is applicable to all printer types.
