Duet 3 and jetson Nano?

hanshogeland

@gtj0 Success!! Thank you fior your hard work of making it work Iḿ truly grateful

gtj0

Just a quick update...

There are official 64 bit builds of Duet Software Framework available from Duet3D. All you have to do is create a file named /etc/apt/sources.list.d/duet3d.list with one line in it...

deb https://pkg.duet3d.com/ stable armv7

Even though armv7 is mentioned, you'll get the arm64 packages.

Then copy the attached gpg key to /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/duet3d.gpg.
duet3d.gpg.txt
The .txt suffix was added just to satisfy the forum's upload restrictions so you need to remove it.

Finally, do an apt-get update and apt-get install duetsoftwareframework

etc/apt/sources.list.d/duet3d.lis

Yes, I´ve been thinking about this for a while and just like that the update I was waiting for :)!
Followed your instructions and it worked like a charm, thank you so much.

gtj0

Those packages have been up there for a while now but both @chrishamm and I forgot to tell anyone.

I did a fresh install (both L4T & DSF) and I'm running into an issue:

As far as I know, I have set the correct GPIO pin and SPI frequency.

Any advice is appreciated!

chrishamm

Have a look at the note in https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Getting_Started_With_Duet_3#Section_Enabling_SPI I haven't tested this on a Jetson Nano, though.

gtj0

@jpomo10 It's an easy fix...

Create a file named /etc/modprobe.d/spidev.conf and put 1 line in it...

options spidev bufsiz=8192

Then reboot. You should be good to go after that.

Thank you for your help on this.

This fixed the buffersize problem, but still getting Duet is not available:

Any other ideas of what might be causing it?

gtj0

What's the contents of /opt/dsf/conf/config.json ?

Also start duetcontrolserver with -l debug

chrishamm

My best guess is that you don't have the GPIO pin for the transfer ready line configured yet. Unfortunately this part is a bit counter-intuitive because the pin index in the gpiochip device likely varies from the sysfs index but with the right tool you can dump the indices and figure out what device/index you need to use.

gtj0

@chrishamm Yeah I know which one he needs to use.

gtj0

And yeah, 13 is the right pin on the nano

chrishamm

AFAIR I used this guide to figure out the right gpiochip index. You can further diagnose why DCS cannot connect by launching it with the --log-level debug parameter.

gtj0

@jpomo10 Turn on debug from the command line or the "LogLevel" in config.json

Hmmm. Your SpiFrequency is actually on the low side. Try increasing it to 2000000 (2MHz)

chrishamm

@jpomo10 Check the SPI connection. This error message indicates that DCS could not receive any data over SPI.

HebigT

@chrishamm @gtj0

OK, I increased SPI to 2MHz but no change.

To rule-out hardware problems, I set-up a raspberry pi according to the instructions in the getting started guide.

I was able to connect to the Duet3 (thermistors and endstops were reading correctly) but the Duet never responds to gcode sent through the console. e.g. M122 just hangs forever with no response.

I had the exact same problem with the Jetson before I did my fresh install.

chrishamm

Do you have RRF 3.0 (non-beta) installed on the Duet 3? If yes, please share your config.g.
