OneFinity Firmware 2.0 alpha 3 (I hope this review is more helpful than confusing
)
Test configuration: The controller and a PC, using Firefox browser, are hardwired on the intranet.
Woodworker with a Z-20, added X/Y proximity switches.
First impressions:
The default screen resolution on the controller monitor (the original 7" from
OneFinity) causes a lot of screen scrolling.
(The monitor is turned on before controller power up.)
I donāt know how this relates to known 1366x768 issue.
I havenāt researched the forum yet for resolution settings.
āWelcome ā¦ getting startedā startup should have a metric/imperial choice.
Wi-fi setup could use a āSkipā option. (I know, āNextā works)
I did the āWelcomeā¦ getting startedā and then changed all my particular settings.
I did a backup to the PC. See below, the controller settings will be lost on the next power cycle.
Same issues with disapearing Hamburger menu as mentioned in previous 2.0 posts.
To reproduce the situation:
After you get through āWelcomeā¦ getting startedā settings,
go to the menu Admin and Restore setting. It will say success and
Without warning the monitor will go black and after 1:30 or so it
will flash rebooting. After 2 minutes the screen will be back with no menu.
Power off and on power up, the āWelcomeā¦ getting startedā is back.
With just a few cycles, it seems that any setting change/save will cause
another āWelcome ā¦ getting startedā.
To continue with testing, I ignored changing my settings after āWelcomeā¦ getting startedā reboot.
I skipped homing during testing since I canāt save the necessary settings for proximity switches.
First I just cancelled the āLoad selected fileā window.
I donāt think it showed which file.
I did load a file from the PC and it displayed the part nc path, same with a second file.
(2 files not enough to test if loading and selecting files correctly)
I did a shutdown and a power up (āpower-cycleā). It did not show the āWelcomeā¦ getting startedā and
did the pop-up āLoad selected fileā window. I selected to load the file, it did.
I then used the control to delete a selected file so there was a blank field for selected file.
I did a āpower-cycleā and again the āLoad selected fileā window. First file on the list I guess.
This āLoad selected fileā window confuses me. Didnāt 1.3 already have the last file used
loaded on power up? (I donāt remember and to hard to switch SD cards to check)
This is a feature???
The controller monitor goes black after serveral minutes of non-use.
Tapping the black screen has no effect.
Turning the monitor off/on has no effect. It doesnāt say āno signalā like
after powerdown. I started the PC browser to do a shutdown.
It would be nice that if there still is a signal to the monitor something is shown.
Is there a raspberry setting to keep the screen on during inactivity. Hate to see a
black screen when a part is running.
