    Good news!

    I printed 3 more of the same 3D model (22 hour print ~500g of plastic PETG) and I have not had this failure since grounding the casing of only the extruder motor. So it seems that the issue was indeed ESD on the stepper driver causing it to go into a failure mode.

    Thank you very much for your time and help!

    @arturolaz I doubt that CoolStep is the solution because I am not convinced that the driver is overheating. How quickly after the driver stopped extruding did you take the M121? If the driver really is shutting down because of overheating then it will cool down fairly quickly.

    BTW your M121 report says that the driver on the tool board is stalled:

    Driver 0: pos 0, 2682.0 steps/mm, stalled, SG min 0, temp 69.9C, read errors 0, write errors 0, ifcnt 52, reads 40354, writes 0, timeouts 0, DMA errors 0, steps req 0 done 251658

    If you haven't set the stall detection threshold using M915 then that doesn't necessarily mean that it has stopped moving, but it does suggest that it was under high load when last commanded to move.

    @mrehorstdmd said in Spirograph emulator with Duet2:

    What are you actually trying to do?

    Good question.
    If it's confirmed that Sandify's polar code is supported by RRF, I'd like to build a polar laser engraver or light grinder. (infinite rotation required and supported?)
    It's definitely a step up and even easier to build than the SCARA-like dual arm, shown in my opening post.
    I spent the whole Sunday afternoon watching your Arrakis playlist and then played with the polar version of Sandify. I created some interesting and doable patterns. Even some basic wiper pattern have their charm.
    The fractal spirograph algorythm doesn't seem to produce the same patterns as the original, but much more complex and mesmerizing images.

    @SpeedyDad If you can find the MCU on the PanelDue, you can check which version it is, see https://docs.duet3d.com/Duet3D_hardware/Accessories/PanelDue#version-history

    Early version 2 - ATSAM3S2B processor (64MHz, 32kb RAM, 128kB flash)
    Version 2 (Manufactured from August 2016) - ATSAM3S4B processor (64MHz, 48kb RAM, 256kb flash).

    Most likely it's over 9 years old, which isn't a bad run!

    @mikeabuilder RRF takes the view that when comparing values for equality, you should know what the types are, therefore it is a static error if you compare different types. It's the same as evaluating "some_string" + 1. An exception is if you check a value for equality with the constant null because there are some values in the Object Model may be null or may have a value.

    @oliof @gloomyandy After discussing this with @dc42, I think I've misunderstood how extruder acceleration is limited under PA. The jerk / PA limit on acceleration is applied automatically by RRF, so the user doesn't need to set jerk or acceleration manually to take account of PA. The user sets extruder speed, jerk and acceleration at whatever the extruder can achieve in extruder-only moves (like retraction). The user only needs to know that acceleration is limited when PA is applied, to jerk / PA, so may have consequences such as slowing down or stuttering during printing moves, or skipping steps. This, at least, makes the documentation simpler! Which I'll now update, again...

    @o_lampe thanks good idea about doubling up - that slip ring has 6 connections and I only need 4 - so I can double up the heater ones - 20A 230v would be masses more than I need.

    I haven't done enough actual printing on the SV08 to find any heat bed issues - but it seems to maintain temps ok - although I did get a failure with the PID tuning,

    Point taken about the project approach.

    One of the advantages of not having a sponsor is not being restricted to specific goals, dates or budgets.

    But you might be right that there is a risk of me losing interest in the project - especially as I've just booked a QM2 cruise - so really want to do a model of that ship before I go - so that I can get some comparison photos.

    So far all of my changes are just reordering things that were already in the plan (or when better technology like INDX vs Stealthchanger comes along).

    On this subject though I am about to change around my bed slinger approach a fair bit to not have a longer bed - but instead just move about 150mm - and add the ability to link multiple SV08's with this ability together - to get 350x700 or 350x1050 for example - with the build plates slightly overlapping the heated beds.

    Will probably do dual gantry - but only single heads on the second SV08.

    That will then deliver my original plan (and most popular video so far) - see Prusa Multi Mini.

    My immediate plans (which I may change)

    Get 3 headed build working well - with fully parallel, faster printing Rotating bed Angled extruder on rotating bed 150mm bed slinging 2nd linked or independent SV08 with 150mm bed slinging 4th print head - probably on stealthchanger to allow for offloading. iNDX - which may slot in earlier if previous steps go past December.

    A small update: I did some tests with /machine/connect and /rr_connect Not sure if this behavior is intended or not.

    The /machine/connect API has a session timeout of ~ 8 seconds independent of whether a password is required/used or not.

    The /rr_connect API appears to have an 8000 second timeout when no password is required but has an 8 second password when a password is required.
    Also /rr_connect?sessionKey=yes does not provide a sessionKey (at least when called from a browser).

    @adrien_tobeca more recent firmware reports the raw angle:

    M591 D0 Duet3D Roto magnetic filament monitor, enabled always, 25.20mm/rev, allow 10% to 190%, check printing moves every 2.0mm, agc 45, raw angle 354, no calibration data

    Also you can use the "S" parameter in M591 to monitor movement all the time if you prefer:

    Sn 0 = disable filament monitoring (default), 1 = enable filament monitoring when printing from SD card, 2 = enable filament monitoring all the time (S2 is supported RRF 3.5.0 and later ). Filament monitors accumulate calibration data (where applicable) even when filament monitoring is disabled

    Hello, thank you for sharing this. I have a question — I own a ToolChanger controlled by a Duet 3 MB6HC board, and there are 4 tools installed. Tool “T4” is a Smart Orbiter V3.0, which is connected to a ToolBoard 1LC V1.3. I was wondering whether it is possible to use the functionalities of the Smart Orbiter V3.0 by connecting them directly to the ToolBoard 1LC V1.3. Thank you in advance for your reply, it would be a great help.

    @CrazyCreator
    For anyone who has the same problem after me, here's how to connect or insert the ribbon cable.
    You have to flip the small black bracket upwards, then insert the cable, and then flip the bracket back down. This secures the cable.
    Of course, you should have known beforehand that there is a bracket on these mini jacks.

    @Rat-Rig-CS thanks for your response and for how this had been handled.

    From our side part of the issue was between how warranty issues are handled when a product is supplied from a reseller, vs a board supplied with a complete product (be it a kit or an assembled machine):

    For a reseller supplied product, referral to the forum is the correct procedure. For a product incorporated in kit or complete machine we expect the manufacturer to handle the warranty process (and communicate with us directly, if there is a fault with the board).

    The basic idea being a machine sold as a complete product, which the manufacturer has control over would not be expected to have configuration or wiring issues that we want to debug here on the forum before confirming a hardware fault.

    We will update our T&Cs to make this clearer.

    @T3P3Tony

    If you go to the General section of the DWC there are a number of options/values that can be set/changed.

    So I was thinking that would be a place to have an "on/off" option that would change the behavior.

    As to M568 - I am using that.

    Here is a the relevant code from one of the filament config files:

    set global.print_beg_tool_temp_a [var.index] = 190 set global.print_beg_tool_temp_s [var.index] = 100 set global.print_beg_tool_ext_adj[var.index] = 100 set global.print_beg_tool_spd_adj[var.index] = 100 set global.print_beg_tool_bby_stp[var.index] = 0 set global.print_beg_tool_prime [var.index] = 10 set global.print_beg_tool_retract[var.index] = 0.5 set global.print_end_tool_retract[var.index] = 0.5 set global.print_beg_bed_temp_a [var.index] = 60 set global.print_beg_bed_temp_s [var.index] = 30

    Later on there is this code in another routine that applies these values:

    ; this part is just to make the use of these values down below a bit easier to read by using shorter names var bed_temp_a = global.print_beg_bed_temp_a [var.tool] var bed_temp_s = global.print_beg_bed_temp_s [var.tool] var tool_temp_a = global.print_beg_tool_temp_a [var.tool] var tool_temp_s = global.print_beg_tool_temp_s [var.tool] var ext_adj = global.print_beg_tool_ext_adj[var.tool] var spd_adj = global.print_beg_tool_spd_adj[var.tool] var bby_stp = global.print_beg_tool_bby_stp[var.tool] M568 P{var.tool} S{var.tool_temp_a} R{var.tool_temp_s} ; set extruder heater temps (active and standby) M221 D{var.tool} S{var.ext_adj} ; set extruder extrusion percentage adjust M140 S{var.bed_temp_a} R{var.bed_temp_s} ; set bed heater temps (active and standby) M220 S{var.spd_adj} ; set print speed adjust M290 R0 S{var.bby_stp} ; set initial baby steps
