I am trying to square it around the Y axis using the 4 screws of the router mount, but I find it hard to fine tune it. For the X axis, I was considering shimming between the router mount and the Z axis C-beam, but I also consider trying to rotate the whole X c-beam on its mounting plates. What do you recommend ?

Thanks.

Is there a default password?

Do I need to connect via USB and YAT to set it up again?

Tried reformatting and replacing the image to the SDCard from the firmware page but now the SDcards "firmware" folder is empty. Added files from old SDcard backup and nothing happened.


M122 reads that the sdcard is detected and lists speeds.
M122 p104 s10 responds within range according to the duet2 docs guide.



Any ideas?

1. Warning VIN over voltage event (29.0V) Error attempt to move motors when VIN is not in range.
2. VIN over voltage event (29.0V).
During error condition Z Axis drove down slowly.
Power off and on seems to have cleared issue

m32 "0:gcodes/gc cut 13 jan_1-frofile 1.gcode" response too long, see console

It had been working fine 3 months ago but we hadn't used it for a while and now it will not run a job. I have tried looking at the Z gap and also settings in VCarve but have not had any success. Any advice greatly received.

We are running a WorkBee Z1+ CNC with a Duet 2 Ethernet (RepRapFirmware 3.3) and are looking for recommended feeds & speeds for aluminium using the following tool:

Tool type: End Mill
Units: inches
Diameter (D): 0.125 inches
No. Flutes: 2
Tool: 1/8" Square End, 2 Flute, Up Cut

Material: Aluminium plate, 5 mm thick
Spindle: WorkBee Router Head (manual dial 1–6, approx. 13,000–33,000 RPM)
CAM: Vectric VCarve

Below is the exact parameter order as shown in VCarve, and we would appreciate confirmation or correction of suitable values for aluminium on a WorkBee:

• Pass Depth: ?
• Stepover: ?

• Spindle Speed (RPM): ?
• Feed Units: inches/min
• Chip Load: ?
• Feed Rate (XY): ?
• Plunge Rate (Z): ?
• Tool Number: 1

We previously snapped a 1/8" tool and want to make sure we are running conservative but correct settings for aluminium on a belt-driven WorkBee.

Any real-world recommendations from Ooznest users would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance!

I did this this morning and then moved the router to a convenient position near the front of the bed to change the router bit. Once changed I hit home all on the dashboard.

The z axis dropped and no other axes even tried to home. I keep getting the error “target position outside limits” and now I cannot manually move the router in any direction or “insufficient axes homed”

Tried power off many times as well as the controlling PC

I am trying to complete the first project file on the Ooznest workbee Z1+ 1500x1000, however I cannot see the blue path in the Gcode preview viewer. I have homed my workbee as well as calibrating the touch probe.

It is saying that the file is successfully loaded but there is no visible path appearing. I have switched on the built in plug ins, but I can't find any information anywhere on why I can't see this.

I have tried multiple suggested online solutions to sort it but nothing is working.

Is there any way to solve this as it's stopped any progress in its tracks. Any help would be appreciated!

I have seen mixed reviews about it working so would like to get a firm answer.

I have the Mafell router.

I am trying to connect the controller of my mashine to my laptop. When I followed the manual, at the end of step "1. Connecting your Controller via USB - Windows" I encountered the Error 9 after typing M115 into YAT.

But the USB connection is valid, I selected the right port and right before this step, the Terminal form was filled with the correct information.

Maybe I missed something, but I also double checked it. Sorry I'm quite new to this topic.

thanks!

Is there anyone on here who might be happy to come to Oxfordshire and run us through the basics to get us started?

Thanks

very new to this and I have a Workbee Z1+1000x1000 (I believe).

When I select to 'home' in the console it does so in the rear right.

When I select go to 'work zero' in the console it also does so.

However this is only about 25% of the way toward the centre of the bed.

• once in this position I cannot move it any further toward the front, or the left with out getting an out of bounds error message.

How can I set the parameters to use the whole bed?

Or is that automatically adjusted when I load a file to cut?

Thanks in advance...
