; Miscellaneous
M575 P1 S1 B57600 ; enable support for PanelDue
I'm still learning a lot, so let me know if I've botched the configuration.Well the only line that matters for PanelDue is the enable command which you already have, so no problem there.

@redrout if you can send commands to the Duet then transmission from PanelDue to Duet must be working. So most likely there is a problem with the wire that connects UTXD on the Duet to DIN on the PanelDue.

Thanks for the replies, I did some more reading, and replaced the cable with a shorter one (4 feet before to 6 inches or so now). I tested the current cable and it looks good, but the issue still persists (can still send commands but stuck connecting). On the off chance I had a bad wire again I swapped the UTXD - DIN wire with the URXD - DOUT wire on the terminals and tried again, but the same problem happens. I looked at some of the traces on the duet and the paneldue, but nothing looks obviously amiss.

Hey @redrout,
- are there errors in the console tab?
- what state does paneldue report in the top right corner?

@mfs12 The console tab doesn't display anything, even if I do send commands to the board via the PanelDue. The PanelDue reports "Connecting"
thx
-
It definitely sounds like it's just not connecting, though seems to be functional otherwise and you're able to flash the firmware, etc.
Your config looks ok, it just needs the command to enable it and set the baud rate. Have you verified in the setup page of the paneldue that the baud rate is set to match the config? 57600?
-
Hey @redrout, did you send the M115 command from DWC or PanelDue?
If PanelDue reports "connecting" the connection was not yet established. This points to either a physical connection problem (cabling or sockets) or not matching uart configuration of the Duet3d board and PanelDue.
To improve debugging such problems in future i will consider improving error reporting about connection issue in PanelDue's message log.

@mfs12 I appreciate the improvement potential, but is there any way for me to resolve this issue on my end? I just don't know what to do with my paneldue now, since it doesn't receive information it seems to be little better than a paperweight.
-
Are you able to test with a new shorter 4 wire cable and/or the 10 pin ribbon cable?
When and where did you purchase the PanelDue?

Hey @redrout,
closing this thread due to inactivity. Please re-open if your issue persists with newer version of paneldue.
