DUEX 5 - E4-E6 not working and a bit more...

CJ.BRAVO · 16 Jan 2020, 15:39

ok so....... extruders aren't working again.
really not sure whats the deal.

Yesterday took off the famous "P4" and it worked. tried to run the system again today and nada...

any new leads?

@CJ-BRAVO Probably you sent something in the console that you didn't update in the config.g. Please post you full current config.g for checking. You never said what firmware version you are running; please send M115 and post response.

Also, having just answered another question about mixing ratios, I see that yours are a bit odd; T0 is E3:1, and T3 is E1.5:3. Usually mixing ratios should add up to 1, or, in your case, you will massively over-extrude.

@CJ-BRAVO said in DUEX 5 - E4-E6 not working and a bit more...:

FIRMWARE_VERSION: 2.04RC1

Update to 2.05; it fixes a few bugs. https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.05

You've defined a bed and hot end heater, but haven't defined a tool that uses the hot end heater, and so the temperature monitoring attached to that heater. Same for fans. Is that intentional? This shouldn't stop the extruders working, as they are only mapped to extruder drives.

You don't need the M568 at the beginning; it's deprecated. See https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode?revisionid=HEAD#Section_M568_Turn_off_on_tool_mix_ratios

For most of your motor settings, you've still got Znn:nn. Though this doesn't matter, and the firmware will ignore the second number, it's better to remove colon and second number.

M350 X32 Y32 Z16:16 I1 - firmware will not be interpolating microsteps on X and Y. Duet Wifi only has interpolation at x16 microstepping

Otherwise, I'm struggling to see what could be wrong. The only other thing is the current that you're pushing through E0, 2.5A. This might be causing the stepper driver to overheat and cut out, but you should get warnings of this in DWC.

Can you send M122 after you send a command that doesn't move, and post the report?

Ian

CJ.BRAVO · 17 Jan 2020, 10:48

I've updated RRF to 2.05

I don't need the bed actually - I've got a modified cr10-s4, I noticed that (at least in the past) that I get an error if I tried to remove the bed related commands from config. I don't need it for my prints. can I just remove the beds' heater and such?

I removed M568.

the cr10-s4 has a double Z axes, I mapped the 2nd Z on E0 - suggested by a fellow cr10/duet user, instead of using the 2nd Z axis - it was not recommended to use the duets' 2ns Z spot with the cr10 motors or something as such.. don't really remember the reason.

2.5A per motor, I thoght can handle that? I've got a 600W 25A psu for that reason...
that motor also doesn't work all the time..

At the moment the extruders work fine.........

I'll attach M122 anyway:

The only driver working is driver 5...

After updating the firmware I only turned on driver 6 and 7 (E3/E4) which worked fine.
then I turned on E1 (driver 5) worked as usual then tried again dr 6/7 and do not respond again.......

CJ.BRAVO · 17 Jan 2020, 12:35

ok. current update - it works.
I've updated the DWC to the latest version 2.06 and everything currently works (all tools and drivers).

don't know if that due to the dwc update but at the moment everything looks fine.
another thing that I did is to disconnect the mosfet (stock from cr10) that was connected but as I said before I'm not using the bed/heater so I disconnected that as well.

Let's see whats next

p.s.
I found "M140 H-1" to disable the bed heater which looks better now on the dwc

cheers!

CJ.BRAVO · 22 Jan 2020, 11:33

@dc42

Hey David, back to the original post - I've checked the funky duex 5, ground and all but still it acts funny like I mentioned earlier.

Can I check anything else?

thanks

dc42 · 24 Jan 2020, 14:13

Hard to say, but my guess would be a bad ground connection or over-voltage on +5V has caused that. Is either of the 74HCT02 chips on the DueX getting hot?

deckingman · 24 Jan 2020, 15:05

@CJ-BRAVO One thing I noticed in your config.g is that you are using the format Znnn:nnn for your Z axis speeds, accelerations, steps per mm etc. It isn't necessary even though you have multiple motors, because it's a single axis. It is necessary for extruders because each separate extruder is treated like a separate axis.

It probably isn't doing any harm and the extra values after the colon are likely just being ignored but who knows?? It might be wise to tidy that up and remove the multiple, colon separated values for the Z axis (just in case).

CJ.BRAVO · 26 Jan 2020, 08:52

@deckingman

OK I'll change it.
I've got my initial config setup from a fellow double Z axis user who sent his config.

Thanks
