@smoki3 Just for completeness: regular status updates (MCU temperatur, input voltage, thermistor temps, etc.) do work normally while VIN is powered, right?

smoki3

@wilriker yes this is fine. But this was also fine with the old firmware.

wilriker

@smoki3 Do you have the possibility to change homing to something other than stallGuard to test with that? Using stallGuard would fit into the issue that was found so far that was blocking updates on my setup.

Also can you please confirm that print simulation is working? And if possible heating of bed/hotend. So far it looks to be bound to the motion system (the communication to the TMC2660 in particular) but it's unclear if there are other things that will trigger fault states.

To disable stallGuard I have to do some more work. (Solder some endstops and so on, I can do but need some time)

Heating my hotend is fine. It is heating up as it should. Then I now tried to simulate a print: Then I get the same issue as when I try to home my printer. The simulation starts but hang forever. Then I also not able to send any command to the printer. But at this time I don't see any checksum errors in the terminal.

[info] Selected file /opt/dsf/sd/gcodes/Dreher.gcode
[info] Starting file print
[info] File: Optional macro file start.g not found

I also tried homing all my axis separately and this is working fine.

smoki3

Update: I also tried now to simulate a few times more. Now I get some checksum error and resets.

if you disconnect the motors you could just attach some wires to the endstop signal pin and short them to ground to simulate real endstops. you might also want to reduce the feedrate to give you plenty of time to carefully simulate the switches with the short.

I now disabled stall detection in the config. But still not able to run a simulation.

wilriker

@smoki3 Can you then please post your config.g as well as your home*.g files?

I was able to simulate a print as well as (air) print without issues. Basically everything worked for me except flashing new firmware so it must be something in your config that I do not have that might help to narrow down the problem further.

I don't think it has something to do with the config. I believe that the issue is more randomly. Because I sometimes get a "hanging forever printer", sometimes the printer resets.

Maybe it also make a difference if you have just 4 Motor drivers active. I actually have all 10 drivers active

if you upload a sliced file we could test if it is the config or physical presence that makes a difference (if either). running just your config doesn't seen to be a problem with or without Vin, but my simulation doesn't use multiple tools.

Without the duex5 you should get a lot of errors that the motor drivers are not connected. My test file also was just one tool head.

wilriker

@bearer said in Duet 2 Ethernet and SBC:

No, I'm not but since the reason so far is that it's caused by interrupts clashing somehow having to handle more interrupts when DueX5 is connected will probably even worsen the situation.

@smoki3 said in Duet 2 Ethernet and SBC:

No, it's not even having the drivers active but in a powered state, i.e. input voltage is > ~10V . Whenever this state is detected it will enable an interrupt to receive data from the drivers. On my setup without DueX5 and without stallGuard I can solve the issue of flashing by just disabling the corresponding interrupt handler in the preparation steps for flashing. But of course this cannot be done in regular printer use.

JoergS5

@wilriker said in Duet 2 Ethernet and SBC:

disabling the corresponding interrupt handler

I always wanted to know but did not find the answer yet, but you may know: is the interrupt request lost then or is it queued?

wilriker

@JoergS5 TBH I am not 100% certain but my understanding is that if the IRQ handler is disabled there is no one interested in this event and then it's discarded. Also since interrupts are high priority "look at me NOW!" events I don't think it would even make sense to queue them.

JoergS5

@wilriker thank you! I feared it. I am currently reading books about Cortex MCUs, but this question is not answered yet.

wilriker

@JoergS5 I would assume that this behavior is not limited to microcontrollers but due to the NOW!-nature of interrupts it doesn't make sense on any platform to store them - I imagine this similar to dropping broken/not-fetched-in-time frames in video playback since it would not make sense to insert them at a later point in the stream.

JoergS5

@wilriker the Cortex interrupts can nest, ie a higher priority can interrupt an interrupt, the original one proceeding after. I ask because in RRF is a place with interrupt disabled with the comment to hold execution time as short as possible. Makes sense then.

wilriker

@JoergS5 Oh, you mean when there actually are handlers for different interrupts. I thought you were talking about what happens when the interrupt handler is disabled. Misunderstanding.

That's actually a field of learning for me still, too.

But more relevant to this topic again: it's not simply interrupts clashing but interrupts also using DMA. So there are multiple priorities to juggle.
