TMC2660 problem

PCR

@jerolee ..... Thats than Bad for you ,;) its definitly Not the duet

dc42

@jerolee you have wired the motor to the plug incorrectly. The diagram posted by @Gixxerfast shows that red and green are one phase, therefore they need to be adjacent and at one end of the connector. That's not what I see in your photo. You will get the same problem if you use your existing wiring order with any other control board.

@dc42
the diagram showed does not represent de motor i have. i measured the coils and the correct pairs for my motor are black/green and red/blue.
Otherwise i couldnt measure the resistance no?

So, this is not a wiring problem, i got more pancakes with different color wires. i measure the coils which are what and then connect, same problem no rotation, just a little bit of hum. when i connect a nema17 thats runs quite normal, i noticed however some hickup that it wouldnt start rotating.
I also tested the round 36mm pancakes on other drivers on the board X, Y, Z (these drive my NEMA17's. all drivers same result, no rotation.
It must be some PWM or whatever signal not quite work with the small round motors?

Further... i used same pancake motors with connector on my ender 3 board, motors run normally.
I just have no clue whats goin on here. i post my config file.

RepRapFirmware does not support individual motor settings where an axis has multiple motors connected to different stepper drivers. The first parameter specified will be used for all motors on the axis. You should use identical motors on any axis that has more than one motor to avoid unexpected behaviour.

Example: If you have two motors on your Z axis, physically connected to Z and E0 stepper drivers, configured with M584 Z2:3, set M92 Z80, not M92 Z80:80

@pcr
This has no solution for the Extruder stepper problem but that aside.

Quote "RepRapFirmware does not support individual motor settings where an axis has multiple motors connected to different stepper drivers.

I use identical motors on my axis.
This means that my Z-axis will always run out of sync go skewed in height while the motors are not exactly the same? I had to calibrate them.
Have them raise Z 450mm then measure the actual distance and do some calculation to adjust the number of steps per mm per motor.
They didnt raise the gantry at all corners exactly accurate. Same as you do for extruding exact amount of filament.
But oddly enough, after the calibration, feed in these steps in the config, the 4 corners does run accurate so another wierd thing goin on then?

This would be 1 more reason to step away from reprap software?

dc42

@jerolee please can you provide a link to the pancake stepper motor that you purchased. I will then purchase on so that I can test it with Duets.

@jerolee said in TMC2660 problem:

Only if your Z steps/mm is not the same for all your Z motors, or they can't all be run at the same current.

GeneRisi

@dc42 I have exactly the same motor. It works. @jerolee , here is my suggestion. Connect the motor wiring from the motor all the way to the duet board. The duet board connector has the wiring between coils on adjacent pins, so one coil will be pins 1 and 2. The other coil will be on pins 3 and 4. Measure the resistance on the connector you are plugging into the duet board. If you do not get approx. 2 ohms for both pairs, a wire is crossed. Typical Nema 17 steppers have the pairs interlaced. The LDO pancake stepper does not.

dc42

@generisi, thanks for your observations.

@jerolee in your original post you said:

I cant get mine to work, which ever combination of wiring, tried 8 combo's
result a little hum.

Unfortunately, connecting stepper motors incorrectly to a stepper driver is the best way of blowing it. We took steps when designing the Duet to improve the resilience of the drivers when a motor is disconnected under load. However, the current regulation in the stepper drive relies on the motor being connected correctly, and we can't do anything about that. This is why at https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Choosing_and_connecting_stepper_motors#Section_Connecting_stepper_motors we stress the need to connect the motors correctly.

The TMC2660s are high-current drivers and the short-circuit protection built into them is unfortunately not fast enough to protect the driver in all situations (even though RRF sets it to maximum sensitivity), especially when connecting low-inductance motors incorrectly. Therefore I suggest you check whether the motor output that you are testing the pancake motor with is still capable of driving one of your Nema 17 motors correctly.

@dc42
All of the drivers still operate normally with all NEMA17 on it. So none of the drivers is defective or burned out. my 3D printer functions, it homes all axis, it does the tramming. it just wont let the pancake motors rotate. i connected them to all of the drivers and they just dont work.
Please stop replying on the wiring because i connect the coils correctly. 1 coil on 1-2 pin other coil to 3-4 pin. i looked at the wiring schematic of the Duet board.
So nema17 just works fine, i know the wiring can be different for motors, thats exactly why i measured which pairs are the coils, to not make mistakes here.

Im completely in the dark about what can cause this. I posted the config file im using. Can someone comment on the settings for the Extruder?
I cant think of anything wrong there tbh because it has all the settings the other drivers get.
Also tried different current settings, nothing changes. tried without interpolation, etc...

I connect the pancakes to my ender3 board which runs on a SKR turbo with Marlin and there the round pancakes just work fine, rotating both directions
No worries.

If you guys dont have a clue either, then just say it. dont bring up the wiring again
Thanks anyways.

i just changed the Y and Z steps to just 1 value for each letter. Does the same goes for the current settings and others like acceleration, speed?

After getting used to reprap and DWC i would hate to change back, a lot of work again, time and money invested lost. im not happy, the printer as good as finished but without the extruder running its useless sitting there.

@dc42 Same measurement, same wiring like other picture but just more clear in view.

Hurray the stepper is rotating!!! The only thing i changed today was that i removed the (not needed) steps per mm in the config file from the Y and Z axis. This has nothing to do with E axis right?!
BUT appearantly , how in the hell this is possible i dunno, it fucked up the pancake steppers. Im completely stunned here and i would like to ask DC42 to try and replicate this. the more values registered under Y and Z axis must have crazed the system in some kinda really odd way.
Wow unbelievable, but im so happy it works now, jeeeez im speechless.

GeneRisi

@jerolee , I am only trying to help you out. My final comment is to look at the section of my config file below. The first extruder is a 20mm LDO pancake, the second extruder is a 17mm LDO pancake. They are both driving a version of the Orbiter extruder.

For the 20mm LDO pancake, I have the current set at 1200 mA. I also have a lower "maximum instantaneous speed change.

I hope this helps.

@generisi
Hi, i appreciate your help ofcourse.

Good news mate, after i removed the values from Y and Z for the other motors on that axis in the config file, so only 1 value for Y and 1 value for Z, after upload and reset the pancake extruder WORKED!!!
It has nothing to do with the wiring but appearantly the values from Y and Z in the config file did some really odd magic preventing the 36mm round pancake to rotate. It did not bother a NEMA17

I ask DC42 to try and replicate this oddly behaviour as i gues its a very interesting conflict somewhere??

So my problem is solved and im a happy camper.

@jerolee I am glad you figured it out. Check my settings for current, etc. they are working well for me so far.

@jerolee What firmware version are you using? Send M115 and post response.

Multiple values on gcodes that should only have one (like M350, M92, M566, M203, M201 and M906) used to cause problems, but I thought had been fixed in more recent versions of the firmware. If you're using the latest and it's still causing issues, I'll raise it with @dc42 for him to check. Also, @PCR 's suggested changes included setting single values for each axis, so if you'd tried all of what he suggested, it should have worked. My suggestion (if I'd read this thread earlier) would have been to create a blank config.g with one motor defined, and test. You can also send M98 P"config.g" to check your config.g for errors, though I'm not sure it spots multiple values being specified when they shouldn't be.

Next time you post a problem, it's best to post what hardware you are using, firmware version, and your config.g in your first post; it will make helping you a lot more straightforward, and quicker. See https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/5909/

Thanks mate, by removing values from the config as you suggested, the odd behaviour of the software was gone and round pancake worked.
