Can I manually move the machine to a set point without using the jogging buttons?

Hi Martin, I think they could be 3 unrelated issues, that all happened to happen near one another. 1. I think the machine just lost power, may a small power cut? 2. Could be the flexible coupler, did you want to check the grub screws and clamping bolt are tight? 3. This is an odd one, I would advise checking all mechanical portions of the axis Thanks!

Hi, Does every line of code start with a G command? That is the main criteria of the Duet

Hi Stephne, We don't offer enclosures for sizes larger than 1000x1000mm, as it can be quite impractical. Accessing the back of the machine would require you to enter the enclosure. For enclosures larger than 1000x1000mm, doors on at least two sides would be necessary for proper access. If you're considering building a larger enclosure yourself, you might find our assembly manuals useful. They provide details on the parts needed for our standard-sized enclosures and can be viewed here: WorkBee Z1+ Enclosure Assembly Manual.

Hi Victor, Thanks for your message. We have never tried using an iPad before. If the settings are correct. Does the USB adaptor have crossover detection?

Hi Mat, Have you followed the guides to get connected: Original WorkBee Z1+ Assembly Manual - V1.0

Hi Zain, Thanks for your message. If you go to 'Jobs' in WorkBee Control, can you view all your jobs there?

Hi, The spindle error is not what is stopping the job, if you go the console, there is another error causing it, most likely outside machine limits error. Which you need to follow this guide to resolve: Outside Machine Limits Troubleshooting

Hi Jeff, At the top of this page here you can download the full SD Card Images: WorkBee Firmware Releases Do that and see if that helps

Hi Joe, Thanks for your message. Yes this is possible, you would follow this guide here: How To Connect A Software Emergency Stop Button Thanks!

Hi James, Thanks for your message. What was the IP Address you entered in via notepad?

Hi Terry,

The files are not for Mac, they are for the Duet, if they have a mac folder inside, please ignore that.

Hi Julien,

Yes you would have the latest version installed.

Yes, but there is additional setup for it, see below:

- Turn off mains power to your WorkBee and plug it in via Ethernet to your home router or networked switch

- Connect via USB following this guide: 1. Connecting your Controller via USB - Windows (Ignore the first point where it says do not follow this guide if you have the Ethernet version of the Controller)

- Send the command: M552 S0 and wait 10 seconds

- Send the command: M552 S1 P0.0.0.0 and wait 30 seconds

- Send the command: M552

- It should come back with an IP Address the WorkBee is now connected under. Go to this IP Address in your web browser and bookmark it.

- In WorkBee Control go to Files > System and open config-network.g

- Find this line: M552 S1 P192.168.251.2 and change it to M552 S1 P<IP ADDRESS>

Change <IP ADDRESS> to the IP Address you are currently connected under.

- Save the file, do not restart.

- Unplug via USB and turn on mains power. It should reconnect under the new IP Address

This is not ideal, contact us to replace them.

You would need to connect the WorkBee to your network, we only cover connecting it direct to your computer

Hi Tom,

Is this a machine from new?

Thanks

Hi,

Can you send through a picture of your settings please?

Thanks!

Hi Aegir,

The endmill is not in that picture. The endmill goes into the collet.

The grease should go on the outside of the collet.

Thanks
