No communication between 6HC and 3HC
-
@jay_s_uk I bought 4 cables separately and made about 4 of them my self. The cable is 30 cm long, I tried crimping it in all posibile configurations. Only when it's crimped identical at both ends I get the 5 flashes that the firmware it's not on the sd card
L. E. oh and I tried it with the jumpers placed on the expansion board and without them, with cables crossed and normal. Nothing helped
-
Looking at the wiring, it looks as though it should be pins 3 and 4 that are connected straight through for CAN.
Can you check your wiring matches that?
Can you also ensure that the jumpers are fitted behind the input can connection on the 3HC?
A blinking LED once per second is a good indication that things are talking.
Can you confirm what arrangement you have the ID jumpers set at? Do you have just number 1 set to on?
If you do, connect everything up, get the slow flashing and sendM122 B1
If you have a different number set for the CAN address, adjust the B value to suit. -
The wires are matching. I tried all possible combinations of wire order.
The jumpers are fitted, the led from the expansion board blinks 3 times when the board is powered on, then one really short flash, and then nothing. The diag led on the mother board flashes continuously once per second. The address jumpers are set to 1 on and the rest are off, I also tried with other addresses, but still nothing. The only response I get from m122 b1 is: CAN addr 1, req type 6021, RID=1 -
@klayus what firmware are you running on the 6HC?
If you are running 3.2 (or similar) can you downgrade to 3.1.1 and then try theM122 B1again? -
I tried with 3.1.1, 3.2, 3.3beta
I forgot to mention that the board did comunicate at first, 2 maybe 3 hours when we first installed it and powered it up. The leds were flashing on both boards, we then updated it to the last stable firmware and from then on all the problems happened
-
Is there anyway to reset the 6hc mother board to the default settings that it came with?
-
@klayus yes, load a new config.
No settings pertaining to your setup are stored on the board.
How long have you had the 3HC? It could be a slow crystal -
well i ordered it 2 weeks ago from filafarm.de it's a v1.01 board 6hc, the expansion board is duet eb1 wd01236
-
I would suggest buying a known working cable.
The type suggested to use are high speed ADSL cables. They aren't very expensive and would rule out all the wiring combinations etc -
I'm trying to revert to 3.1.1 again but there is a missing binary from github, or so duet reports. The file is called "duet3_sdiap32_mb6hc.bin"
-
its part of the 3.2 release to allow downgrading
-
Can you provide the results of M122 and a photo of the wiring on the 3HC?
When switching between firmware versions it's a good idea to upload the complete zip file through DWC if possible. That way any ancillary files are included. They makes going back and forth between versions much easier.

so the result from M122 is:
m122

i did receive earlier this message:

where it says it received 5 messages from the expansion board.i receive this:
m115 b1
Error: M115: Response timeout: CAN addr 1, req type 6024, RID=1
okbut if i send:
m997 s1
okit says ok as if it managed to install the firmware on expansion board 1?

@klayus M997 S1 is not the correct command.
you should be using M997 B1

@jay_s_uk m997 b1
Error: M997: Response timeout: CAN addr 1, req type 6024, RID=3 -
Do I need to tell the mainboard anywhere that there is an explanation board attached? In a config file?
-
no. I'm pretty sure it just repeatedly sends out packets to determine if anything is connected or not.
-
So? Is the 6hc broke or the 3hc?
