Missing Steps - Cant Print SpreadCycle StealthChop tuning help

SputnikOC3d

@dc42 - et al ... I have also given the motor #s of the users involved here to my contact at LDO motors for him to give to his engineering team to review and to compare their motors to their competitors that are both working and not working as well - to see if they have some insight that might help us all resolve.

Not sure if that task will bear fruit - and not holding my breath - but hopeful.

@ctilley79 said in Missing Steps - Cant Print SpreadCycle StealthChop tuning help:

@dc42 Not exactly. The issue is that it thumps in all modes even when explicitly setting the driver to spreadcycle using for example M569 P0 D2 after homing. The thumps seem to be slightly less abrupt in spreadcycle, but still enough to cause layer shifts in the OP’s case.

The thumps occur in stealthchop with no changeover speed, Spreadcycle entirely, and everywhere in between.

@dc42 I’ve just finished a test print in standalone with M569 S0 V0 at very tame speeds and jerk and the issue persists. I’m happy to bring this setup down to you for you to see for yourself??

@argo I can confirm (same as @carcamerarig), the issue persists with M569 ... V0.

This time there was one interesting variation, instead of a "thump" one of the two motors decided to stop working altogether, so I was suddenly printing diagonally. Then the console in DWC was flooded with "short to ground" errors:

Interestingly this was a different motor than the one that is always skipping (in my build drivers 5 and 6 are the A and B of CoreXY). Perhaps I could move A and B to another set of drivers.

I grabbed an M122 dump when this happened in case it's useful:

When I restarted the Mini5+ (via Emergency Stop in DWC) the errors stopped and I restarted the print again, this time the usual skipping happened during the very first travel move of the print so I did not have to wait long.

I have yet to find a particular mode that works. My board is being exchanged via warranty due to an unrelated issue (SD card problems) so I guess we'll see if switching to another board helps; I doubt it will but it's one more data point.

Cheers,
Ben.

@fulg @carcamerarig Thanks for the feedback. Can you please post your current config.g and a gcode file that causes the skipping/thumping, so I can replicate this on my test bench, as I'm looking at this today.

@fulg @carcamerarig Thanks, both! Just finishing off wiring up the 5+ in place of my Duet WiFi board (one of the early white PCB beta boards, it's been on the printer a loooong time!)

@fulg @carcamerarig I've set up my printer (basically something like a Prusa i3 bedslinger) with settings as close to yours as possible. The basic motor settings are:

; Drives
M569 P0.0 S1 V0                                     ; physical drive 0.0 goes forwards
M569 P0.1 S0 V0                                     ; physical drive 0.1 goes forwards
M569 P0.2 S1 V0                                     ; physical drive 0.2 goes forwards
M569 P0.3 S0 V0                                     ; physical drive 0.3 goes forwards
M569 P0.4 S1 V0                                     ; physical drive 0.3 goes forwards
M584 X0.0 Y0.1 Z0.2:0.4 E0.3                              ; set drive mapping
M350 X16 Y16 Z16 E16 I1                            ; configure microstepping with interpolation
M92 X80.00 Y80.00 Z800.00 E743.50                  ; set steps per mm
M566 X100.00 Y100.00 Z12.00 E300.00                ; set maximum instantaneous speed changes (mm/min)
M203 X18000.00 Y18000.00 Z600.00 E3600.00            ; set maximum speeds (mm/min)
M201 X2000.00 Y2000.00 Z20.00 E600.00                ; set accelerations (mm/s^2)
M906 X1000 Y1000 Z800 E450 I30                          ; set motor currents (mA) and motor idle factor in per cent
M84 S30                                               ; Set idle timeout

I ran a quick test of 100 iterations at full speed (F18000 or 300mm/s) going from X0 Y0 to X200 to Y200 and back. No problems. I then printed (air print, no nozzle or bed heating, no extrusion, but all motors moving) @carcamerarig gcode file, which is a cube and a cylinder. Travel moves are at 80mm/s, where I think you were seeing the problem, but these were okay for me, too.

One thing I've noticed; both of you have your M566 (max instantaneous speed change/jerk) set very low on X and Y. I usually have mine set at the default from the configuration tool, which I regard as pretty conservative, which is:
M566 X900.00 Y900.00 Z12.00 E300.00 (ignore Z and E)
fulg: M566 X100 Y100 Z30 E4000
carcamerarig: M566 X240.00 Y240.00 Z25.00 E600.00 P1
The effect of this is that it may slow down on curves. The sinusoidal fill seemed slow on the air print, but otherwise shouldn't particularly matter.

My only other current observation is that I have a v0.5 Mini 5+. What are your board versions?

I'll should have a little time over the coming days to run some more tests, to try and get it to skip. Any suggestions welcome!

@droftarts
Not sure on board version I have a Board ID: Z9NZN-A296U-D65J0-40KM4-LY03Z-ZPQPD can you tell from that? Purchased direct from Roland in Jan 21.

In my SBC setup I was at M566 X600 Y600 Ill try at 900 now and report back but I fear it will make it worse...

carcamerarig

@droftarts Can you give me your AirPrint gcode file?

Sorry, away from machine now. I just commented out the heater commands in the Gcode file, sent M302 P1 to allow cold extrusion, and unloaded filament. It just fits on my 200x200 bed!

It’s printed on the back of the PCB.

@droftarts My Mini5+ was a v1.0. I say "was" because it is no longer in my hands, I sent it back for warranty exchange for an unrelated problem. I am getting a replacement in a few days.

The speeds are quite low in order to try and work around this issue, my usual speeds were 6x higher (M566 X600 Y600 Z60 E8000). I saw it with print speeds of 40mm/s and travel speeds of 100mm/s and those very slow instant speeds. Similarly my motor currents are higher than what I usually run.

I see that you are running 1.8° motors (80 steps/mm!), as far as I know everyone affected here is running 0.9° motors.

Cheers,
Ben.

Yes, you’re quite right, I wanted to get a baseline, though @carcamerarig reported the same issue with 1.8 motors. I’ll swap X and Y for 0.9 motors the first chance I have. I don’t have any LDO motors yet, so will have to be Wantai and E3D. Thanks for the info!

Ian

carcamerarig

@droftarts

Yep its worse with a higher jerk level but at least you can hear it on the videos now as its been difficult to show/hear with the fans running... It literally shakes everything in and on my cabinet.
While setup on SBC mode I found out one or more of the bigger bangs broke my Y motor holder (cracked it), its replaced now with a spare I had but it can't be good for the printer or the bearings...

A mild travel bang

Infill mini bangs

carcamerarig

@droftarts I can still send mine to you, I thought as we discussed my issue is not unique to the 0.9's to rule those out?

fulg

@carcamerarig I am hearing the same bang on my machine when printing as your first video, then there is a rather large layer shift, ruining the print in progress.

I thought you also had 0.9° motors since that was brought up earlier in the thread (sorry for assuming!). So I won't bother installing my old 1.8° motors, maintenance is never fun but it's worse if you do it for no good reason.

I still have my old Duet2+Duex5 boards, those worked great on the same printer!

fulg

@droftarts My motors are from OMC StepperOnline, 17HM19-2004S, running at 24V of course. I have some LDO 0.9° HT steppers on hand now but I have not yet installed them.

droftarts

@fulg I’m using a 12V PSU, so will need to swap that for 24V. Thanks for reminding me!

Ian

carcamerarig

@fulg Correct I was running the LDO 0.9's when I set up the duet for the 1st time, I changed them to the 0.9's from the 1.8's that shipped with the machine with the promise of higher resolution, ive switched back to the original 1.8's to test if its unique to the motors as other have success with the 1.8's. Mine issue is happening on both 0.9 and 1.8.
