@shinomori I suggest running Bossa to get your board updated https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Installing_and_Updating_Firmware#Section_All_other_Duet_boards
-
It looks like the DWC files were updated, but the firmware on the board itself didn't get updated.
Getting the board itself flashed to 3.3 with Bossa should get you back in sync.
Let us know how you get on with Bossa.
-
@phaedrux Ok
I updated the duet through usb with Bossa. Used "Duet3Firmware_MB6HC.bin". It seemed to take. reconnected the pi and I can ssh into the pi but getting a "failed to connect DCS is not started" error on the web interface. -
Are you able to communicate with the Duet3 over USB and YAT terminal to check the firmware version with M115?
Have you downloaded a fresh image of DuetPi?
-
@phaedrux I have the image but have not flashed it yet.
-
I get the sense that your Duet3 and Pi image are from the early days of RRF3, so a fresh download of Duet Pi would be a good idea.
-
@phaedrux It was definitely very early. I'm not having any luck with yat or pronterface talking direct to the duet. I'll try flashing a new duet pi image and see how that does.
-
When you flashed with Bossa was it able to read back and verify the firmware?
Does the duet show up in device manager as a USB device?
If we're still unable to get communication between the duet and Pi it might be beneficial to setup an SD card to use the Duet in standalone mode. If the Duet is connected to ethernet and there is a M552 S1 command in config.g to enable networking, and the DWC files are present in the /www folder you should be able to access DWC directly by IP address.

-
@phaedrux Connected with Bossa. Under info I get.
Hmmm I'm not sure the bossa flash is working. it keeps closing when I try to run something on it so i get no verifications.
-
@shinomori Our duet and pi are mounted on the ceiling with only power going to it. connecting to it over a wifi hotspot on phone.
-
The Duet3 can be pretty picky about the USB cable for flashing.
Given your situation of being a bit remote and the install being a bit hard to reach our options are either getting a better USb cable or trying to setup an SD card for standalone mode provided the Duet3 still has firmware on it and hasn't been erased yet. Did you use the erase jumper?
What does the Duet show up as in the Device manager?
-
Ok I've got the duet and the pi sitting on my desk now for easier work. I downloaded the firmware again. Plugged in with new usb that was in the box with the duet.
Shows connected to "ATSAME70x20" on com8. Try flashing "Duet3Firmware_MB6HC.bin". And I get a flash command failed error. Tried jumper on erase pins and reset button, but the diag light always stays just dimly lit. I'm messing up somewhere.

Using the Pi itself is also explained there.

This typically means there is a USB comms issue. The bootloader puts the USB into full speed mode (I've no idea why) so the USB cable and port are quite critical. Try a different USB port on the PC, or a different USB cable. Also be aware of the possibility of USB ground loops (using a laptop running from its internal battery to do the programming is a good way to avoid them).
The Erase jumper must be removed before you do the actual programming.

@dc42 Ok I followed that set of instructions and it seems to have worked.

Error: M669: Wrong number of values after '''D''', expected 3
RRF3.3 needs 3 parameters for D. RRF 3.01 eg didn't check the number of values of the D parameter, so the config is from an older RRF version. Better control of the anchor is a new feature of 3.3: https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/wiki/Changelog-RRF-3.x#reprapfirmware-33 "M669 when using Hangprinter kinematics now allows the XY coordinates of the D anchor to be specified". The "line build-up compensation" new feature sounds interesting also, whatever it is.
Documentation of https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/ConfiguringRepRapFirmwareHangprinter is not current, you should set D0.0:0.0:2666.0 now.
The old D was only Z: "Dzzz Z coordinate of the D anchor (the XY coordinates of the D anchor are 0,0)".I wonder why you don't have a M350 value for U (microstep value).
Also can't connect to "duet3.local", but ip address works.
duet3.local is a name which must be mapped to the IP address somewhere (where depends on your operating system). Maybe you changed the IP address in the past or used a second duet. Anyway, I would take the IP address for all accesses.

Is the SBC host name also duet3? Did you burn a fresh SD card with DuetPi as well?
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/SBC_Setup_for_Duet_3#Section_Troubleshooting
You can also check for syntax errors in your config with M98 P"config.g"
-
Thanks. I'll have to take a look through the changelog.
I did reflash the Pi SD card to the newest version and then run update/upgrade. Hostname on pi is duet3 and it does show up as that when I scan the network to find the ip address to connect to. Not too concerned about that one other than it was working before and now is not and that knowledge might help with diagnosing some change. scanning for ip and connecting is not much of a problem.
Should be remounting the boards and doing some more testing tomorrow.

Ok I tried to do a g29 to do a manual mesh level. This was working before where I would manually check nozzle height at each point.
Now after setting the mesh parameters I get for all points:
Warning: Skipping grid point X=0.0, Y=-100.0 because Z probe cannot reach itIs it still possible to do it manually on this version?

Can you try a smaller spacing?
Does a G30 work to probe the surface once first to establish a Z0 point?
