Duet Wifi Setup
- Download and Install Duet3d drivers for your computer here.
- Download and install YAT Terminal here.
- Connect Duet wifi to computer.
- Open YAT Terminal to USB port.
In YAT Terminal Type:
- M115 (checks firmware)
- M552 (checks Duet Board Status)
- M552 S0 (puts Duet board in idle mode)
- M587 S”your wifi networkname” P”your internet password”
- M552 S1 (connect to Duet. Should return an IP address)
- Open an internet browser on computer and enter IP address the M552 S1 command returned.
- After Duetwifi connected you can change the IP address in config.g file.

Stepper Motor Wire Color And Coil Pairs
Stepper Motor Color Coding of Wires For any stepper motor to be wired up properly, we’ll need to determine which wires are “pairs” or connected to the ends of each coil. These are usually referred to as coil “A” and coil “B”. The exact order of the pairs Black/Green or Green/Black of pins does not…

Stepper Motors
What Size Stepper Motor Should You Use? While the size of a stepper motor is just the footprint it’s the winding that determines torque. There are Nema 17’s with as much torque as a Nema 23. Most 3d printers use stepper motors to drive z-axis motion lead screws to raise or lower the bed or…

How to Choose Wire Gauge and Length for Your 3d Printer
How can you calculate the wire gauge and length for 3d printer wiring? Most 3D printers use either 12V or 24V. The hotend of a 3D printer may draw up to 4A, while a heated bed draws nearly 12A. If the wire is not large enough or longer than needed, it will have more resistance…
