Restart DuetControlServer (SBC)
-
Just as an FYI I renamed daemon.g and tried it that way and it didn't work.
-
Was it working before at any point? Did anything recently change?
Could you try a fresh image of Duet pi and updating again?
https://pkg.duet3d.com/DuetPi-lite.zip
https://pkg.duet3d.com/DuetPi.zip
Can you check what firmware is installed on the Duet via USB?
-
Reseated the ribbon cable...no difference.
No, it's never connected (duet status: Off) when the pi has been running before the Duet has power. Just to be clear: when duet is powered and I reboot the Pi or restart the duetcontrolservice it will connect.
Duet 3 firmware is 3.2.2 (read via usb)
Redid the DuetPi image to SD card (image verified). Had the duet off and booted the pi to go through the first time initialization. Turned the duet on and it connected. Turned the duet off and waited a little bit and turned it back on and it didn't connect. Turned off duet and rebooted Pi, turned on the duet and it connected.
It looks like it will do it the first time the pi is rebooted but not after that. Also did the apt upgrades after the above, also no change.
-
Is it possible that after the first time it waits to connect and then the duet is off that it doesn't check/wait again?
-
DSF does indeed wait for the Duet 3 to up and ready. In your case it looks like the might be dodgy connection between the Duet and the Pi which could cause the warnings from your log (all 0x00 or 0xFF could mean a timing issue on the TfrRdy pin).
Can you post the output of M122 when connected over USB to the Duet (with the Pi attached)?
-
With Pi attached and running and Duet off.

@BeosDoc Can you take a look at the syslog file (/var/log/syslog) and see if you have any lines that look similar to:

Yes there is, only 1 occurrence. I have seen it before the other day as well.

If you get that message it basically means that systemd will no longer restart the duetcontrolserver service.
The systemd documentation is a little tricky to follow but this message is generated if the service needs to be restarted more than a certain number of times over a period of time. In this case I think the defaults are 5 times in 10 seconds. I think this can happen if the Duet is turned off and the transfer ready pin floats high.
Given that the main purpose of the SBC is to talk to the Duet I'm not sure it really makes sense to disable the service in this way. If you are happy making changes to the rPi config files (worse case you just reinstall everything), you can tell systemd not to disable a service in this situation by adding the following line:
StartLimitIntervalSec=0to the [unit] part of the service control file. In this case that file is:
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/duetcontrolserver.serviceif you modify to look like this:
[Unit] Description=Duet Control Server StartLimitIntervalSec=0 [Service] ExecStart=/opt/dsf/bin/DuetControlServer TimeoutStopSec=60 Restart=always Type=notify User=dsf Group=dsf UMask=0002 CapabilityBoundingSet=CAP_SYS_PTRACE CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH CAP_SYS_TIME AmbientCapabilities=CAP_SYS_PTRACE CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH CAP_SYS_TIME [Install] WantedBy=sysinit.targetThen the action that disables the service should be turned off. Note that after making the change you should run the following commands:
pi@duet3:~ $ sudo systemctl daemon-reload pi@duet3:~ $ sudo systemctl restart duetcontrolserverMay be a good idea to make a copy of the file before you edit it.
I've seen the service be disabled when updating firmware on the STM32/LPC port of RRF (that I look after). In that case flashing new firmware is different to the Duet and the firmware restart takes longer which can sometimes trigger systemd to disable the control server. Making the above change seems to fix that problem for me. It would be interesting to see if it helps with your problem.

@BeosDoc said in Restart DuetControlServer (SBC):
Reseated the ribbon cable...no difference.
Do you have another ribbon cable to test with or possibly make some jumper cables?
@gloomyandy said in Restart DuetControlServer (SBC):
StartLimitIntervalSec=0
I've asked christian to take a look at this. Regardless, the Duet and Pi should be making a connection so the retry shouldn't come into play. Seems like either a bad cable or damaged pins.

I don't have that file in /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants
I did find it in /etc/systemd/system/sysinit.target.wants/
Mine at that location is currently:

No other ribbon cable, just the one supplied with your board and I have reseated it. I have short jumper wires I can use. I want to verify the required pins: 19,21,22,23,34 and 20 for ground. Is pin 17 (3.3V) and/or Pin 2/4 (5v) required? SBC has it's own power supply and the duet no jumpers on 5V -> SBC and also SBC ->5V
-
@Phaedrux My understanding is that problem occurs when the rPi is started but the Duet board does not have any power. In that situation it is possible that the duetcontrolserver service has been suspended (due to the too many restarts), before the Duet board is even started. If that happens there is no way that the Duet is ever going to connect, because it has nothing to connect to. Certainly if that "duetcontrolserver.service: Start request repeated too quickly" message is in the syslog it would indicate that the service is being suspended. Either way the change is easy to make and then test to see if it helps with the problem.
@BeosDoc That's odd, perhaps it has been moved at some point, my rPi image was created probably a year or so ago (but has been updated continuously since then).
-
To be honest I'm not sure about the 3.3 and 5v pins. Try without if you're short on jumper wires.
-
I'll try the jumpers first. Then I'll try the changes to that file.
-
First part. I replaced the ribbon cable with very short, 9cm (ribbon is 20cm), and brand new jumpers. Initial boot worked. After that it still had the status of Off.
FYI: You do need pin 17 (3.3V) hooked up. Without it, it didn't see it at all.
For future reference Duet 3 > rPi you need pins 17, 19, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26 (not sure about 26) and one of the grounds (like 20 and/or 25

If it was a bad cable or damaged pins, then it probably wouldn't work at all or there would be lots of comm errors. If I reboot the pi or restart DuetControlServer it works find, I've done several prints.

@BeosDoc Are you getting any
systemd[1]: duetcontrolserver.service: Start request repeated too quickly.messages now in your syslog file? Are you rebooting the rPi to test this?
