Duet maestro Driver Expansion underpowered?
-
I've added the driver expansion to the maestro board. All the motors I've added to it act like they are under powered. It makes a grinding sound like it when it's hitting an object but if I give it a slight push it moves just fine. These motors work just fine on the board itself.
I'm trying to move the x y axis with it.
Is the expansion faulty? -
Post your config.g please and tell us which motors are connected to which drivers. Also the results of M122 please.

It's a corexy style printer.
x is driver 6

Did you make this config file?
It's difficult to follow with the nest macros.
To verify what the motors are actually configured as can you send these commands by themselves and report back with what they return?

M92Your firmware version is also quite ancient.
I think maybe at this point it would be best to simply update the firmware and generate a new fresh config file set using the online tool. It will be far easier to help support you.
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/3.3/Duet2and3Firmware-3.3.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'm having problems with the homing for this new config.
It mostly only moves the z axes when I home x and y, but they move correctly when manually jogged. -

-
@beej when I installed it and configured it the first time I had some odd issues too. But after a cold start, the steppers behaved normal. I guess it's a SPI setup thing running after a reset.

S0 means active low, so you will indeed need to invert the pin signal.
So your M547 commands need a ! in front of the pin name, like this:
; Endstops M574 X2 S1 P"!xstop" ; configure active-high endstop for high end on X via pin xstop M574 Y1 S1 P"!ystop" ; configure active-high endstop for low end on Y via pin ystop M574 Z2 S1 P"!zstop" ; configure active-high endstop for high end on Z via pin zstop -

awesome that worked It's homing and everything is moving in the right directions.
The steppers are sounding a little grinding, i'm not sure if that's quite the right word.
But they aren't running as smoothly as they have been, would that have to do with the interpolation, or current...? -
