Duet WiFi issues
-
Hi,
Im trying to set up my Duet WiFi on my printer, I followed the guide on this site and connected it to my network and installed the firmware, Im on version 2.03.When I try to home the axes or any other command from the DWC it will follow that command but then disconnects from the WiFi and becomes unresponsive. I can turn it off and back on again and it remains unresponsive until I reset it using the button.
Another thing it does is when homing the x and y, the x motor begins to move then stops, the y works fine, what could be the reason for this?
Sorry I am fairly new to all of this and apologise if Ive missed something obvious.
Thanks.

@OW93 a few things to test:
-
When you say "any command" causes wifi disconnect, just motor movement commands or things like turning a heater on and off?
-
What does the voltage in report?
-
In you are connected over USB and send a motor movement command for homing (e.g. G28 Y) does the board freeze?
Please post the result of M122 sent after the board has frozend and been reset, along with your config.g

Hi @T3P3Tony,
Thanks for the help:
I was having issues connecting back up to the board to get a M122 even with resetting it, I had the LEDs on for 5v and VIN but not 3.3v. I moved the axis away from the Y end stop, then the 3.3v came on and WiFi came on again, would this show my end stop is wired incorrectly? My X axis end stop does not have this problem.
Even if this is the problem for the WiFi issues, what would be the cause of the X axis motor problems? The X axis moves first so it can't be that the Y end stop causes the motor to stop can it?
Onto your points, this is where I now stand:
-
I have now been able to use all three heaters successfully.
-
The voltage in to the board is exactly 24v, the power supply is the one I have used on my printer before upgrading to a Duet so I know its a good PSU.
-
No board freezes, again until the Y axis end stop is activated.
My M122 report came back as:
Bed probe heights: 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 === Heat === Bed heaters = 0 -1 -1 -1, chamberHeaters = -1 -1 === GCodes === Segments left: 0 Stack records: 1 allocated, 0 in use Movement lock held by null http is idle in state(s) 0 telnet is idle in state(s) 0 file is idle in state(s) 0 serial is ready with "M122" in state(s) 0 aux is idle in state(s) 0 daemon is idle in state(s) 0 queue is idle in state(s) 0 autopause is idle in state(s) 0 Code queue is empty. === Network === Slowest loop: 23.14ms; fastest: 0.00ms Responder states: HTTP(0) HTTP(0) HTTP(0) HTTP(0) FTP(0) Telnet(0) Telnet(0) HTTP sessions: 0 of 8 - WiFi - Network state is running WiFi module is connected to access point Failed messages: pending 0, notready 0, noresp 0 WiFi firmware version 1.22 WiFi MAC address ec:fa:bc:2d:df:62 WiFi Vcc 3.38, reset reason Turned on by main processor WiFi flash size 4194304, free heap 29080 WiFi IP address 192.168.1.197 WiFi signal strength -59dBm, reconnections 0, sleep mode modem Socket states: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 ok

yes
see
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/How_to_destroy_your_Duet_2
point Short the endstop supply voltage pin to ground. -
yes as @Veti says it looks like you have your endstops wired incorrectly.
See
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Connecting_endstop_switches#Section_Microswitch
assuming you are using simple switches:
Connect the switch between GND and STP/IN.

Ive sorted out the end stop issue, its strange as the x end stop was correct.
When I home the y axis now it doesn't go all the way to the y end stop and so is not homing correctly, my x axis is still having the same issue as before, hardly moving at all.
Also the motors have a hissing noise to them, is this normal? Ive never had fans as quiet as the ones I have now so it could have always been there and been masked by the fan noise, its not extremely loud, just a new noise is all.
Thanks

please post your homing files

Here are the homing files:

whats the output of M119 when no entstop is touched?
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M119_Get_Endstop_StatusAlso the motors have a hissing noise to them
see
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Reducing_Stand-Still_Noise -
The M119 shows:
Endstops - X: at max stop, Y: at max stop, Z: not stopped, Z probe: not stopped
okand I guess I was asking does the noise not matter to the printer? Im not too bothered with the noise level as it is in an enclosure and as such the noise is quite quiet anyway, I was more bothered about if it will cause any damage, I think if I can get it up and running first then sort out any fine tuning like that at a later date I would rather do that.

you misconfigured your endstops. change the line to
M574 X2 Y2 S0 ; set active low endstopsthe documentation for the duet is really good and there are pages for every stage of the configuration.
see this for endstops.

Thanks for your help, Ive really messed up the end stop part of this install haven't I haha.
I wanted both axes to home on maximum rather than minimum for cable management reasons.
The y axis now works perfectly, homes great, but the x axis is now moving in the opposite direction to the end stop, I'll have a look through the link you have sent me to see if anything else needs changing.
Thanks for both of your help, Im new to the forum and its nice to see a place where everyone is so knowledgeable and helpful.

its also possible you misconfigured the direction of the x axis in the M569 command
