Upgrading from RRF2 to RRF3 issues
-
Thanks in advance
I had done a huge amount of messing around with my v2.05 config and hadn’t use the web configuration tool for some time. When I initially tried to generate my RRF3 config I had all sorts of issues one they were loaded into my DuetWifi v2 – all of which was down to my fat fingers/brain. So I decided to take a different approach and use the config tool to take my v2 and flip it to v3. I took my working RRF2 v2.05 settings and manually re-generated the config.json file using the configuration web tool. Once I had that dialed in I loaded it into the DuetWifi and it worked as expected. I then switched to v3 on the web config tool and went through the settings to double check they were the same on the pages that are similar between RRF2 and RRF3. Bltouch settings were a pain and still not working properly , I’m using heater 7 as I did in RRF2
I have tried v3.0 and 3.01-RC11 so far with mixed results
Current issues
-
The Bltouch will deploy and then retract as the bed touches it but the deb does not stop moving and emergency stop has to be pressed. Same on v3.0 and v3.0RC11
-
Cannot home Y axis. on v3.0 it moves very slightly and then nothing will move until a reset. On v3.0RC11 it fails with
G28 Y Error: Failed to enable endstops -
V3.0 shows 1 more endstop than is physically present
- v3.01-RC11 shows the Y endstop as n/a (this is a currently a mechanical endstop NO, ultimately it will become NC in time)

Your motor currents are much lower in our RRF3 config.
M574 S0 is not supported in RRF3 anymore.
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M574_RepRapFirmware_Num_3
Endstop type S0 (active low switch) is no longer supported in M574 commands. Instead, use type S1 and invert the input by prefixing the pin name with '!'. Ex: M574 X1 S1 P"!xstop". Invert the input when using an NPN output inductive or capacitive sensor, or using a NO switch (not recommended, use a NC switch instead).
So that may explain your Y endstop issue.
Use
M574 Y1 S1 P"!ystop"instead.For the BLTouch you have
M558 P9 C"zprobe.in+zprobe.mod" H5 F120 T6000remove the+zprobe.modpart. The modulation shouldn't be used. In the configurator it is selected by default and should be deselected. It's on the change list to have that fixed as it tends to catch people out quite often. Sorry about that.Also for the BLTouch, what do you have for your deploy and retract macros? Does M401 and M402 work to deploy and retract the pin?

M558 P9 C"zprobe.in+zprobe.mod" H5 F120 T6000 ; set Z probe type to bltouch and the dive height + speeds
Recent versions of BLTouch need the pullup resistor enabled too:
M558 P9 C"^zprobe.in" H5 F120 T6000 ; set Z probe type to bltouch and the dive height + speeds

@Phaedrux Thanks Phaedrux
Motor currents - looks like i messed up there as it is taking the values now
Missed the M574 info - thought i had read it all properly, obviously not and appreciate the heads up. However that code was all created by the configuration tool
BLTouch - yes M401 & M402 work as expected

@Foden Quick and outstanding support as ever - THANK YOU guys
Homing of the Y axis now works as expected as does the BLTouch. So was I selecting the wrong thing(s) here are there changes coming for the config tool? I was trying to keep my initial, baseline, config clean and created by the config tool before I dirty it with tweaking and fiddling with it
-
The config tool is yet to be updated fully and is still outputting S0 rather than ! on the pin. It's on the list for the next update.
Glad it's working though,

Just noticed that if i do X home more than once (paranoia kicking in) X axis keeps moving to the right. Checked the endstop status and X is showing as triggered regardless of whether it actually is or not. Haven't messed with any cables and the optical sensor itself was working properly

No sane person would build their own 3D printer I guess
Thanks again!

Given that this is a CoreXY we should verify that your motor directions are correct and that you are configured to use a right hand coordinate system.
I'll point you to this post which goes through the steps of verifying that everything is set correctly (end stop positions, homing directions, and motor rotations)
https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/12676/mirrored-x-axis/9?_=1588616543576

I looked through the link
Motor directions are correct and haven't changed since original setup some years ago. Y endstop was changed when an optical sensor died and I only had mechanical spares so it was swapped and I haven't swapped it back since
As I mentioned, once I left it alone and the hit the emergency button all is well - go figure

Is this with RRF 3.0 or with RRF 3.01-RC11 ? I recommend you use 3.01-RC11.
