Toolboard 1LC GCode

choblet

Still having issues getting the Toolboard 1LC up and running after previously giving up and running things directly from the Duet 3 to the extruder.

The "Add Tool" feature in the RRF Configurator has never worked for adding a tool, and so here I am.

The tool is recognized, but the heater and sensor are not.

If you run M98 P"config.g" do you see any error messages?

PS - also send the following commands from the console to check that the devices have been configured as expected:

Hopefully, this is only a configuration problem. I just don't know where to look to find the solutions. I have done more than a fair amount of reading and searching, but I can't seem to get the right combination of commands.

dc42

So the main board is not able to find an expansion board at address 1. Have you set the address of the tool board? https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Duet_3_Tool_Board#Section_Commissioning_a_new_Tool_Board

choblet

@dc42

M115 B121
Board TOOL1LC firmware 3.01 (2020-02-05b1)

Yes. It shows up on the web interface under "Tool" as "1LC". For "Heater" and "Current", "n/a" is all it shows. The temperatures are grayed out at the expected -273

dc42

So its address is still the default 121, but your M308 and M950 commands refer to address 1 e.g. M308 S0 P"1.temp0" instead of M308 S0 P"121.temp0".

@dc42 OH, ok...I thought the leading number referenced the tool number or pin or driver number. Thank you very much, I plugged it in and the heater and sensor are online and performing as expected.

Great job, as usual. I really appreciate it.

I spoke too soon. Heater 1 is "offline". Not sure what happened, but reconfiguring my endstop for the x-axis threw away whatever worked the instance before, and I cannot recreate it. I receive these errors upon startup:

Looking at the error messages:

@choblet said in Toolboard 1LC GCode:

Error: M550: Machine name must consist of the same letters and digits as configured by the Linux hostname

as it says.

Error: M569: Response timeout: CAN addr 1, req type 6018, RID=9

Error: M350: Response timeout: CAN addr 1, req type 6021, RID=10

Error: M906: Response timeout: CAN addr 1, req type 6017, RID=11

You are still referring to CAN address 1 in your M569 and M584 commands.

Warning: M950: Pin 121.out1 is not free

My guess is that you previously sent a command that assigned 121.out1 to something else, and didn't reset the tool board

Warning: M143: Board 121 received unknown msg type 6039

Sounds like your main and tool board firmwares are out of step. Use M115 to check the versions. Main should be 3.1.1, tool board should be 3.1.0.

M569 doesn't offer me any option to select a CAN address.

I am referencing this site.

The M584 command was referenced here and only describes addresses for expansion boards...as which I wouldn't describe the Toolboard...but I'll give that a shot.

M143 does not describe any CAN address parameters.

I've spent hours today reading and trying to figure this out, and there are no resources that have offered any help except having to come here. Can you tell me where you would go to find this information? I have checked the dozuki, wikis, the hardware pages, the forum, and there isn't anything that I could piece together that makes this work. I know it falls on me, and I feel like I'm maybe missing some document or other resource that would better help me learn this stuff.

I built this machine from scratch, no kit.. I've never even used a 3D printer before this, and the parts it has produced have been fantastic. I'm just having a tough time finding the right resources for information other than here.

dc42

From https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M584_Set_drive_mapping:

In RRF_3, M584 works the same way as in RRF_2, with exception that on Duet 3 the driver on expansion boards are assigned with <board address>.<driver number>.

So your M584 command should use E122.0 nor E1.0. Similarly for the P parameter in M569 P1.0 S1.

The M143 error is a consequence of the M950 command failing.

@dc42
Did a good bit of learning and figured almost everything out. I am having one final issue that you might be able to help with.

For some reason the extruder motor will not extrude.
I tried using the address trick when setting up the tool in the config file with D20.0 with no result, but I can't seem to figure out how or where I could have missed something. Is there anything you could suggest that I check?

Here's the config

@Phaedrux Thanks for the firmware info. That was really simple and quick.

Edit: additionally, I plugged the y-axis cable into the extruder and it worked, so the motor itself is fine.

And I ran a diagnostic after learning a thing or two from above, thank you for that:
