New experimental firmware 1.19beta9
-
It is reporting 1.19beta9:
Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet WiFi Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.0 + DueX5 Firmware Version: 1.19beta9 (2017-07-10) WiFi Server Version: 1.19beta9 Web Interface Version: 1.16config.g:
M584 Y5 X7 U8 V6 E3:4 Z0:1:2 ; Set up steppers for x, y, u, v, z and e, use P4 once it works to hide V M671 X250:560:-60 Y560:-10:-10 S0.5 ; Set up lead screw positions for bed levelingAnd I had to change direction for for Y and V.
bed.g:
T0 M401 G30 P0 X40 Y40 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew G30 P1 X250 Y460 Z-99999 ; probe near a leadscrew G30 P2 X460 Y40 Z-99999 S3 ; probe near a leadscrew and calibrate 3 motors M402 G90 G1 X250 Y250 T-1 -
If you run M671 with no parameters, does it report the leadscrew positions that you configured?
I'm sorry you still have the tool change problem, I thought I had fixed that.

So I have beta 8 on my corexy which has a v1.02 board, no issues there.
Decided to install beta9 on my kossel XL which has one of the x/500 1st production 1.0 boards. Interestingly the 1.02 board wifi is 3.5 times faster transferring a file than the 1.0 board.
Followed the procedure, no problems, installed everything, got my wifi up and running.
Then I'm getting AJAX disconnects all over the place, barely keeps connected for 5 seconds. Especially bad if I was on the "G-code files" page on DWC literally disconnects after a few seconds, but its much more stable if I'm on any other page. I had quite a lot of gcode files, so I deleted them from the memory card and that seemed to improve it a bit.
Before this upgrade, wifi was solid. I have a dedicated router for my printer room, only 3 printers connected to it and its 12 inches from this machine. I changed the router to 802.11G from B,G,N mode, but no real improvement.
Then I downgraded wifiserver to beta 8 and its a bit better but still not quite right.
Hopefully this report helps, if you want any more data from me let me know.
EDIT - so I just saw the post with Chrishamm's 1.17 rc6 and installed it, no real change in disconnects, so I went back to wifiserver beta9 and its fine as long as I am not on the g-code files page, then it disconnects almost immediately.
EDIT 2 - so been using beta9 and dwc 1.17rc6 for a while now and it totally stable as long as I stay away from the g-code file tab. Which I generally do anyway, but odd that it falls over here and not anywhere else.

Hello david,
I come from version 1.19beta8 and when I try to update to this new beta I always receive the error "Could not establish a connection to the Duet firmware! Please check your settings and try again." And I have to remove the power to be able to connect with the Duet Ethernet. When checking the firmware version I still have 1.19beta8
I have a Duet Ethernet.
I have tried it from Proterface but it remains indicating "firmware update" and never ends, until I remove the power.
What am I doing wrong?
a greeting

Have exactly the same problem trying to revert to 1.18.1

Hmm, my DuetWifi is having a hard time connecting to my wireless network since upgrading to one of the betas.
Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Anyone else have this problem? It used to work fine.M552 S1,
Error on Paneldue console says:
0m30 Wifi reported error: failed to connect to access point Wifi module is idleAccording to release notes, the ESP should go to AP mode. I don't see it.
M552 S0, M552 S1 over and over, eventually is connects.

I went to beta9, Wifi works better but now bedleveling causes AJAX error at the end.
Going to try beta8 -
Hi,
OK I must be doing something stupid.
I am trying out your IR probe for as my Z-probe under 1.19beta9 firmware with 1.15a DWC (because I cannot get it to upgrade).
With a simple G30 command I can trigger the IR probe and movement stops.
With something like G30 X0 Y0 X-99999 H0 the IR probe seem to be ignored. I can see the red light come up but the movement continues until it impacts the bed.
This used to do what I expected with a micro-switch as a Z-probe. However the micro-switch had a active reading of 1000 but the IR probe is around 530 or so. In each case I used a threshold value of 500.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
Frederick

Ack, beta8 is worse for wifi.
"WiFi reported error: Unexpected WiFi state 'idle' while trying to connect to Wifi module is idle"
(the third WiFi in the above quote is missing a capital F.. hehe)trying beta7..
-
Beta7 was bad for wiifi..
going back to beta9, hoping something in bed.g is incorrect or new version.

Several issues to deal with here.
Lars, thanks for running that. If you want to try fixing it yourself, I believe the issue is with CoreBaseKinematics.cpp line 47. It should call ZLeadscrewKinematics::Configure not Kinematics::Configure.
Problems upgrading/downgrading firmware: this seems to affect a few users, and I have one board that exhibits this problem too. I will look into this shortly. Meanwhile, if this affects you then I suggest you use SAM-BA or Bossa/bossac 1.8 instead.
WiFi connectivity: DuetWebServer 1.19beta9 fixes a bug that caused the WiFi module to try to connect to the wrong access point in some configurations. If you were already connecting successfully using beta8, there should be no difference.
Access point mode: the 1.19beta series of DuetWebServer does not currently go into access point mode if it fails to connect to an access point, unlike earlier versions. We're currently grappling with an apparent bug in the ESP8266 SDK that causes incoming packets to be lost when it is in access point mode.
G30 command: there was a major rework of the G30 code in beta8, so it's not impossible that a bug has crept in. However, autocalibration and bed compensation work for me, and I've not seen any reports of problems with G30 before the one in this thread.

I will revert to beta8 and see if I experience the same problem.
Will report back.
Thanks.

No issue with G30 from me, I have used it in a delta bed.g file and to reset Z at bed centre and then spot check with the S-1 switch, all worked perfectly.

Ok, we keep waiting and we are attentive to the solution to be able to update. Thank you

Did something change with bed.g from previous versions? My kossel completes the pattern, last step was to move the head out of the way by moving it up. In beta9 after the pattern is complete, the head stops, web page gets a connection error (AJAX error), panel due continues to work, no result is shown after bed leveling. It used to says before: 2.88 now 0.015.
Can't get wifi working without fussing on anything less than beta9. Maybe removing the wifi network from the configuration and adding it again would help..
-
The bed probing code was reworked in beta 8 but there was no intentional change in functionality apart from adding the option of manual "bed probing".
In beta 9 the only change is that on a Cartesian printer, if you have used M671 to define the bed leadscrew positions, then the final G30 command with the S parameter computes the leadscrew adjustment instead of doing 3, 4 or 5 point bed compensation.
Eddie, what happens if you command bed levelling from PanelDue and then look at the Console page? When you say 'bed levelling' do you mean G31 auto calibration, or G29 mesh bed compensation?

same as cubexupgrade cant get the X and Y working
on a corexy
they are swaped -
Yeah I just noticed this on my corexy, had to swap the y motor direction in the end. Working now.
