Magnetic Sensor - Extruder X reports sensor not working errors

droftarts

@clegg78 hmm... not sure what’s going on. With the SD error, I’d be tempted to format a fresh SD card, copy all files over, and see if that helps, as intermittent SD cards can cause very random behaviour. Firmware 2.05.1 should have got rid of most of the output buffer errors, so it’s really looking for why they are happening with the filament sensors enabled. Can you disable them for a print, and see if the behaviour and errors go away? Either they are causing the errors, or some other error is causing them to misbehave.

Also, can you post your full config.g, and config_override.g if used? It may show up something. Finally, which version of DWC do you use?

Thanks for the reply!

So I spent the last few days doing a TON of testing. I put in a new SD card, and haven't seen any SD issues/errors since.

I am running DWC 2.1.1 (upgraded to it a week ago).

What I've seen in my testing is that:

Output buffer overruns or exhaustion errors DO seem to coincide with getting sensor not working errors reported, but they can happen even without those errors it seems.
*Sensor Not Working errors can happen even without those happening though.
*These errors can happen early in a print, or late in a print... at high speed, or slow speed, during big continuous prints or short high retract prone print jobs.
*Currently E1 sensor is more prone to throwing these errors, but E0 does as well now and then. With the same frequency on Z and E1 endstop that they did on the CONN_LCD port. The E0 sensor is the newer replacement one of the two after the first E0 would throw errors all the time.

Current Diag from a print that has had 2 "Not Working" errors reported:

@dc42 @T3P3Tony @droftarts

I've ended up disabling the sensors on my system for now, and may remove them entirely until a solution can be found that lets them work consistently. As someone else has posted (and from my searching "Not Working" errors seem to be tied to people running the DUEX boards as well. ) I cant test if they don't have the issues without the Duex as it's needed to run my printer.

IMO this is a Duet firmware/hardware issue that needs to be resolved. I even changed the wires over to shielded/grounded wires to ensure there was no interference in the loop.

At this point the sensors are a liability and I cant trust them.

clegg78

@droftarts

So I was doing some testing after having both sensors disabled for the last few weeks. Once I enable them I start seeing Error codes and output buffer overruns. If I disable them, I never see error codes. Regardless if they are on the CONN_LCD or on normal end stops.

droftarts

@clegg78 There was a recent very lengthy thread regarding someone who had problems with errors and underruns, and it came down to having wires running next to or along the ribbon cable that connects the Duet and Duex. This is because the ribbon cable can pick up interference from other cables relatively easily. Can you check your cables don't run near the ribbon cable?

Ian

clegg78

@droftarts

I will check that. Currently the only wires running near the ribbon for the Duex are power 24v runs, everything else is either sheilded or away from the ribbon wire. Would a shorter wire help limit that issue? My Duet and Duex are very close to one another, and I could shorten that wire considerably. I will work on rerouting some wiring away from that connector. The Conn_LCD connector is close to the ribbon in general but the wires run away from the connector for the sensors.

I will do some testing and checking on that. I'll also look for that thread!

Thanks

@droftarts Thanks!

I just finished upgrading to RRF3 3.01 RC12 just to keep current, I am going to shorten the ribbon for the Duex and wrap it in aluminized tape, and move some of the wires away from it. I will report back!

clegg78

@droftarts

So I shortened the ribbon for the Duet/Duex by about 1.5" (I know how to re-terminate make 50 pin cables from my SCSI days) I moved all the wires away from the ribbon as well.

I powered up the printer running RRF 3.01RC12, and went to lunch to work on it later. All I did was enable the 2 sensors, and my standard config (updated for RRF3).

When I came back from lunch I ran M122 and saw it ran into a buffer exhaustion issues while it was just sitting here!!

@clegg78 well, it was worth a shot, I suppose. I’ll escalate this for @dc42 to look at.

@droftarts @dc42 Thanks!

So tonight I was doing a long 7 hour print, after upgrading to RRF 3.1 on my Duet 2 Ethernet.

The Sensor on E0 that was printing worked fine for ~ the first 4 or 5 hours. Then it had the first "Sensor not working" error, then a second about 4hours later.

The weird thing was after the last one, the sensor went dark. No LED flashing, nothing... After the print I plugged it back in and it started flashing again. Could there be some static discharge issue at play here? (correction - the last event was a "too little movement error" when the sensor was visibly dead) The E0 sensor is the older of the two, I RMA'd the E1 sensor already.

I did see an Error Code 4 come up in the M122, but that happened about hour 2 or 3 into the print, before any "Not Working" error happened.

I am onto another print that I need to get done tonight, but here is the M122 from that (Note I disabled the E0 sensor for this print as I cant have it stop overnight)

@clegg78 Can you post the response to M591 D0 and M591 D1? Though I think you'll need to run both of them for a short while to get any data. Are they still connected to Z and E1 endstops?

It still feels like an SPI problem between the Duet and Duex to me, ie something glitchy in communication between the two causing the error 4 (Output buffer starvation). I don't know if it is the sensors causing it, or the sensors misreading as a result. One thing I notice is from your config.g is that you have the X axis (X and U) split, with X on the Duet and U on the Duex. I guess you combine these to X with M584 X0:5 after homing X? My thinking is that it would be better to have the motors of each axis on the same driver, and have X, U and Y on the Duet, Z and extruders on the Duex, if possible.

Yeah I am about to print again and I will get the info from them for you.

Also I noticed something interesitng, I just connected to the printer after it was sitting idle for a few hours after powering up. and on connection I heard it reboot the machine. I checked the M122 and saw this:

A Stack Overflow reset out of nowhere? Not sure I've seen that before.

That's a known issue with RRF 3.1.0, fixed in 3.1.1.

dc42

Have all your "sensor not working" errors been accompanied by the sensor no longer flashing?

There could indeed be a static discharge issue. Have you grounded the body of the extruder stepper motor?

clegg78

@dc42

No that was the first time I've seen that happen, after unplugging and replugging it, it worked again. The Extruder body isnt grounded (its on the X Axis gantry, direct drive extruder, so no easy way to ground it. I dont have an extra wire in the bundle going to the printer right now that carries a ground consistently. I could look into running a small ground wire in the bundle to the extruders.

And yeah upgrading to 3.1.1 fixed that stack overflow error.

Thalios

I've been running 3.1.1 for a bit and just tonight, ran in a similar problem. I'll create a new thread with the exact issue.
