Extruder motor doesn't move
-
@zfeng said in Extruder motor doesn't move:
How can I interface with the external temperature controller with the duet board?
You'd have to provide a lot more details on the external controller.
After sending M302 P1, try sending G1 E10 to see if the extruder will move.
-
@phaedrux I tried G1 E10 code and yes the extruder moved a bit. But the extruder control section is still not active. The feed amount and feedrate can be selected, but the retract and extrude functions are down.
-
What firmware and DWC version are you running?
-
@phaedrux The firmware is 2.05, what is DWC?
-
@zfeng DWC is the web interface. For version go to System > General. There was one version that didn’t enable the buttons, so update to the version here: https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.05.1
Upload the file ‘DuetWebControl-SD-2.0.7.zip’ to the Duet in the system tab to update DWC.You can also update the firmware from 2.05 to 2.05.1 (this has a number of bug fixes) by uploading the Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin file.
If that doesn’t work, post your config.g file; maybe you have no tools defined.

-
@droftarts I checked the version of the firmware is 2.05.1, and DWC is 2.0.7
-
@zfeng post your config.g i can only see on your screenshot that you have not or not correct a thermistor or a heater configured

It looks like you have a bed heater defined, but not a tool heater. I can't recall but I think you might need to define a heater in RRF2.
Any reason you want to stay on RRF2?
-
@phaedrux What does RRF2 mean? Do I need to define tool heater before activating extruder? Can I bypass it?
-
RepRapFirmware 2 last version was 2.05.1 released over a year ago and no longer updated.
RepRapFirmware 3 is currently at version 3.2.2 and is actively being developed.
-
@phaedrux How can I upgrade my board to RRF3?
-
If you still have access to DWC. Upload these 3 zip files, one at a time in the system tab. Don't extract them. Reboot after each. Use M115 to verify the firmware has been applied.
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/2.05.1/Duet2Firmware-2.05.1.zip
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.0/Duet2and3Firmware-3.0.zip
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.2.2/Duet2and3Firmware-3.2.2.zip
That will get your firmware and DWC up to date.You can see the change logs here:
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/wiki/Changelog-RRF-3.xFor your config, might be a good idea to run through the configurator tool and generate a fresh set for RRF3.
https://configtool.reprapfirmware.org/StartBackup your existing config files in the sys folder in case you want to switch back to RRF3. IT’s easy to switch back and forth, just upload the zip file for the version you want and then upload your config files.
These documents will come in handy during the conversion.

I also see from your Config that you are setting T1 as active but you only have T0 defined.
Maybe @droftarts or @Phaedrux can just confirm they are far more expert than I am!
-
@dougal1957 Almost. He is calling T1 at the end, but the tool he has defined is also T1. And the tool being defined doesn't have a heater assigned. I don't think that those things in themselves would cause a problem, but it's been a long time since I've used RRF2.
Updating to RRF3 and using a cleaned up config.g might do wonders either way.
-
@phaedrux I upgraded the firmware, but now I seem to have problem with the endstops. The settings for my endstops type before upgrading were all "active-low", and endstop location all at low-end. But after upgrading, the active-low button disappeared and I selected switch instead, but after updating the new config file, I could not homing any axis due to the G28X failed to enable endstops error.
-
Post your new config.g please.
I suspect that you'll just need to invert the signal by adding a
!to the pin name.M574 X1 S1 P"!xstop"

Your config is still the same as before for RRF2. You'll need to redo it for RRF3.
I suggest trying to generate a fresh one with the config tool using what you have from your current config to inform you. That will give you the correct syntax at least and can tweak from there.
https://configtool.reprapfirmware.org/Start
Also use M115 to verify that the firmware is actually update now.

@phaedrux Sorry pasted the wrong one.
