Heaters not working, strange message
-
Here is a screenshot.
I am enabling the heater by clicking on "Heater 1" or "Heater 0"

If you still have access to DWC, please upload this zip file to the system tab.
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.3/Duet2and3Firmware-3.3.zip
That should update your firmware and DWC files. That might get things back in order.
You haven't posted your M122 yet, so I don't know what firmware version you're using, but the screen shot looks like a recent DWC at least, so updating to 3.3 is recommended anyway.

Well, the printer is in my workshop, so I dont have access to it at the moment, and it is switched of, since it is malfunctioning.
I will go to my workshop in an hour or two.
When I downloaded the configurator files yesterday, I set it to include latest firmware as well.
Its a pity that the Duet2CombineFirmware .bin file doesnt include a version number, or a text file with the version number. -
If you only updated the firmware but not DWC also that could explain what you're seeing perhaps.

What is DWC?
In the download there is a folder called "sys" whewer the bin-file is located together with the .g files and config.json
there is also a folder named "www" containing, what I guess the web-interface -

Duet Web Control. The web interface you connect to in your browser.

Well will obviously do that, when I'm on site.
-
It seems that the config tool didnt use the last firmware, so I was on version 3.0
-
I did an update to version 3.3, now absolutly nothing is working.
I can connect with an terminal, but I cant get WiFi working.M115 FIRMWARE_NAME: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet FIRMWARE_VERSION: 3.3 ELE CTRONICS: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later FIRMWARE_DATE: 2021-06-15 21:45:03 ok M552 WiFi module is disabled ok M587 S"MySSID" P"xxyyzz" Error: M587: Failed to add SSID to remembered list: WiFi module is disabled ok M552 S1 ok M552 WiFi module is being started ok M552 WiFi module is being started ok M552 WiFi module is being started ok M587 Failed to retrieve network list: another SPI transfer is pending ok M587 Failed to retrieve network list: another SPI transfer is pending okThe blue LED on the WiFi module is lit.

@tomasl reflash the wifi firmware.
make sure its in a folder calledfirmwareon the root of the SD card and runM997 S1 -
How do I reflash the firmware, and where do I find it?
-
-
Ok, now I have the WiFI working, thanks, but no tempeature sensors, despite config.g hasn't changed.
Oops, sorry, it was the "extra sensors" that was displayed, not the actual sensors.
Now, the message "generic.heaterStates.disconnected" has dissapeared. -
@tomasl can you post a screenshot of what you're seeing and can you confirm your current config.
-
It seems to be sorted, the view of extra heaters was selected, not the tool heaters.
-
Occasionally when updating the wifi server it will fail silently. Reflashing again using M997 S1 usually fixes it, as you've found. Sorry about that.
Glad to hear the rest of the update seems to have gone well and you're DWC is now back in sync. I suspect that what may have happened was the opposite of what I originally expected. The DWC files were updated, but your firmware was not, so there was a cryptic message for the heater since DWC wasn't getting the response it expected from the firmware.
You can check that you have 3.3 firmware and DWC now by looking at the Settings > General and Settings > Machine Specific tabs in DWC.
