Duet 3 hc6 firmware '''issues''
-
how are you changing the address?
And if you can connect to the duet using a dynamic address, why not stick with that - or create a reservation in the router?
-
@Torppa Please explain how you are 'changing the IP address'. Because you should be able to do this (temporarily, until the next reset, at least) without the SD card even in the Duet, by connecting via USB, and sending the commands directly.
Are you editing the config.g on your computer? What programme are you using to edit it? Notepad should be okay, but other programmes may introduce odd characters that are upsetting the Duet.
Or are you editing it in the DWC editor? It should save the changes on exit, then ask if you want to reset.

Not touching the IP again on the duet since it crashes it.
So far i have tried DWC,YAT and editing on notepad. all of the options crash the printter and i haveto start from formating the SD card
-
It only takes the routter asigned dynamic IP nothing else
-
@Torppa can you update the firmware? You’re on a beta version. Either 3.0, or the latest 3.01-RC6 will be fine.

Probably could, how ever the printter sits in one place and weighs around 47kg, i dont have a reliable laptop and the printter is build so the aces to the duet is under it in a metal enclosure.
I would avoid mooving it around since ill most likely drop it sooner or later.
-
?
if you can access the SD card and YAT, put the firmware file on the sd card and upgrade using YAT. (or if DWC is stable with the dynamic address, just upload the firmware and let it do the upgrade).
Kinda difficult to say what to do when information isn't forthcomming.
-
Ill try updating via DWC, i hope it works since this is starting to feel like a job and i dont need a second one.
Thanks for the help.

Witch one of these i need to update?

https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/3.0
Duet3Firmware_MB6HC.bin
and these for good measure
Duet3_SDiap_MB6HC.bin
DuetWebControl-SD-2.04.zipput the files in the /sys folder if transfered using the sd card, if uploading to dwc it will put it in the right place when you upload and ask you to update.
if using YAT then you need to run
M997 S0:2
after having placed the files on the sd card -
(but I'm a little concerned what happens if the SD card glitches during the update. recovery should be possible with bossa but more hassle.)

@bearer
Sounds fun! cant wait for this to happen, if so how far do you bet an average guy could throw the thing lets not take wind into consideration.
-
@Torppa what version of DWC are you using? If 1.22.6 I wonder if there’s an issue using the old version with RRF3 and Duet 3.

I'd put the files on the sd card, disconnect the network, put the sd card back before powering up the board again and issue the M997 command on the terminal.
should reduce the odds of anything going a miss, and if it does you can follow these instructions for recovery https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Getting_Started_With_Duet_3#Section_Updating_Duet_3_main_board_firmware
-
Its 2.0.4
-
And its broken now, no lights no nothing. dont care anymore worst purchase so far trying to be civil so no anger, its hard... wasted basicly 260eur... POS is going to the land fill probably... well atleast my home insurance covers it so i dont haveto fight duet3d over it.
-
Sigh, I can understand the frustration; but unless the board was damaged the update shouldn't render it unrecoverable.
And the update would only have affected one LED, the two indicating 5v and 3.3v are hardwired to the power rails - if they don't work something other than an failed update occured.
If you find the will to keep at it; high resolution picture if the board would be helpfull in determining the cause.
-
Got it to ''work'' again how ever Z and Y axis are reversed, the weird part is that DWC has no trouble homing only when manuly G1 Y34 F3000 Its the Z axis that mooves. The is something weird going on.
-
I guess that implies it was never broken.
Maybe its time to sit down and do some reading.
-
@Torppa Post your config.g and home all.g.
Check you have connected the Y and Z motors to the correct driver as per your M584 command, the physical order of the drivers on the board isn’t necessarily what you expect; it’s
0 1 2
5 4 3So driver 3 is behind driver 2, not behind driver 0.
