Paneldue crashing?

CTRDevelopments

I am using a paneldue on my DuetWifi. Quite regularly the paneldue seems to stop communicating to the DuetWifi. The unit itself still works insofar as the menus work etc, but it doesnt command the Duet. Also the temperatures displayed freeze at a value (presumably the last received value) as does the time remaining. Seemingly however the 'STOP' button still works. Any thoughts on what I may have done wrong?

jay_s_uk

what firmware do you have running on the paneldue?

CTRDevelopments

What command will report the paneldue firmware? The DUET is on 2.05 (2019-12-13b1), Wifi 1.23

jay_s_uk

Its on the settings screen on the panel

CTRDevelopments

thanks

1.23.2

jay_s_uk

I suggest upgrading to 1.24 and seeing whether the issue still manifests itself.
https://github.com/Duet3D/PanelDueFirmware/releases/tag/1.24
I would also suggest upgrading the duet firmware to 2.05.1
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.05.1

How are you connecting the Paneldue to the Duet? 4 wire connector or ribbon cable? Have you set a specific baud rate for the panel?

CTRDevelopments

The printer is in the middle of a 4 day print. I did update the DUET firmware (not paneldue yet as I thought I would try in stages) but that has not had any effect (still crashing)

Connecting to the Paneldue with the 4 wire connector, not set a specific baud rate

Cheers

Update the panel when you get a chance. How long is the 4-wire cable? I have had to replace the 4-wire cable that came with the panel at one point due to a similar connection issue. Replacing the cable solved it for me. It may have been a bad crimp or even wire weak spot. Not sure. I never tried to get too deep once I swapped it out and the new one worked. I did use that same cable on a different Paneldue where it seemed to work fine though, so who knows. cosmic rays.

CTRDevelopments

I have also noticed that when the paneldue 'freezes' the wifi connection also drops and there is no way to connect to the DUET. IT will finish the print it is on, but if anything pauses (filament run out etc) you cannot restart, or even see the message to work out why it has paused. Hopefully this is a clue

Are you able to safely connect a usb cable and log the console to see if there are any hints, and if not enable some debugging with M111 and repeat?

Duet recommends YAT, my preference is RealTerm as i know it will write logs to files and timestamp the entries if you ask nicely. By all means use YAT if you have it installed and it can log and timestamp.

CTRDevelopments

I can try that. Just started another 24 hour print for a customer, so not too bad to wait. Not used YAT very much at all apart from initial setup, and never used RealTerm, but will give it a go.

If I used RealTerm how would i get it to write the log file repeatedly?

It has a capture tab, just choose filename and timestamp and start it (it will insist on "direct capture" of you enable timestamp i.e. you will not see it while it captures, but you could monitor the output file in another application)

sorry for late reply

Although it didnt hang, I logged WiFi and got (it did seem to dc from the wifi although the wifi has been perfect and this PC is on the same network)

do you have multiple clients / processes connecting to the duet?

CTRDevelopments

Not that I know of. All I have is my single PC that I use for uploading. Nothing else is connected. Is there any way to see what those connections are?

Hi there

some time ago I have also expirienced the same behaviour of freezing communication between PanelDue and DuetWifi. And it allways happens when the Wifi Module reports a lost of connection.
After running all latests updates, both on PanelDue and DuetWifi and resetting the Wlan Hotspot (finding a better channel) this issue was gone for a while.
But now this week it started again.
Today I have rebootet my Hotspot, to hopefully find a new and better 2.4GHz channel and therefore creating a stable connection.

In my opinion the freeze of the comm is related to the procedure how the DuetWifi handles the Wifi connection initialisation and time out.
I have also noticed, that right after restart of the DuetWifi and before the Wifi conn is established the communication between the PanelDue ant the DuetWifi is extremly delayed.
For example:

Switch on DuetWifi
run Home all (during this period the Wifi Conn is not established as the machine has something different to do...)
after Home all and without promt of Wifi Conn-> try to activate a Makro or reading out files via PanelDue...extreme delay in 10+ sec
right after the Wifi has established a stable Connection everything works fine and in usual speed

One more thing. The "Wifi lost conn" occurs shortly after the first connection build up (prompt by Duet) or even during a print.
Only the STOP button on the Paneldue keeps working!

Any ideas?

Any comments at all?

Please create a new thread with your issue. Include your config.g and homeall.g files since you mention those. Include what firmware version on the duet and paneldue. Thanks.
