Duet 3 Mini 5+ motor driver stop working
-
if I send a "M98 P"config.g" the driver come back "on", what can it be? in the middle of a printing process this is a mess!! thankss

@Jiarko said in Duet 3 Mini 5+ motor driver stop working:
Driver 0: standstill, SG min 0, read errors 0, write errors 1, ifcnt 25, reads 11406, writes 13, timeouts 1, DMA errors 0, CC errors 0, failedOp 0x71 Driver 1: standstill, SG min 0, read errors 0, write errors 1, ifcnt 26, reads 11406, writes 14, timeouts 0, DMA errors 0, CC errors 1There are certainly some driver errors, but I'm not sure what could be causing them. Can you post your config.g? I've asked @dc42 to take a look at the report.

it could be that the driver overheated and shut down as a result. Running config.g will probably have disabled and then re-enabled it, which would reset it. However, at 1200mA current I wouldn't expect a driver to overheat unless the board is very badly ventilated.
Did you have any message in the console? Usually an overheating driver triggers a driver error event, pausing the printer; a driver warning sends a message to the console.
Are your motors grounded? It's possible a build up of static is zapping the driver. We sayIt is highly recommended that the stepper motor casings be grounded, especially in belt-driven printers. Otherwise, motion of the belts causes static charge to build up, which eventually arcs over to the windings. Filament motion in extruders can cause static charge to build up on the extruder drive motor too. If the motors are screwed to a metal frame, grounding the frame is sufficient.
Apart from that, you could try turning on logging and see if there are any additional messages there when the fault occurs. See https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Reference/Gcodes#m111-set-debug-level

thanks for answering!!
the motors are directly connected to the metal frame, that is grounded.
the board has a small fan ventilating the surrounding ambient, I've thought it could be a problem for long running prints, but no error in console appeared once the motor driver shut down. the print keep working without sending out any warning (that's what puzzled me) without the motor.
the only thing I could add is that: when I've tried to home the axis (recall it is a corexy printer) one motor only worked and I've got a warning message in the console suggesting that maybe there was a bad motor connection. but i'm sure no connection issue. anyhow, once I've sent the M98 command everything turno to be up and running again.
I'll move on and "improve the cooling" of the board and let you know.
thanks again for your kind feedbacks!!
ciao, Andrea

@Jiarko It sounds like you have grounding and cooling covered. If you had a message about a bad motor connection, I think redoing the wiring and/or swapping out the motor might be sensible, too. If you suspect the driver may be bad, you could swap the motor connections to driver 3 and/or 4, as they appear to be free according to your config.g. I'd say it would be worth swapping anyway, to see if the fault follows the motor.

@droftarts very good idea!! Thanks!!!

@droftarts hi, i've thought to swap motor vs. driver it would be just a matter of physically connect the motor to a different driver and set it accordingly into config file. so I've moved to driver 4 and set in the config the following (driver nomenclature having "base 0")
M569 P0.3 S0but id doesn't work... what am I missing??
thanks
ciao

@Jiarko is it X or Y you are moving? X (driver 0) appeared to have errors, but Y (driver 1) reported a fault. So assuming you’re moving Y, change the driver assignment in M584 to:
M584 X0.0 Y0.3 Z0.2 E121.0You may want to move X to driver 4, too.
If the problem reoccurs, please get an M122 report before resetting or running config.g again.

@droftarts when I try to change the settings as you suggested the "home" command doesn't trigger any more the endstop sensor. so I cannot change the driver mapping configurations.
BTW, is there any way to record the errors even after a reset or power down for further investigating?
thanks
ciao -
@Jiarko Post your current config.g and homeall.g files.
It sounds like you may have mixed up the X and Y motors, as this is a CoreXY. Check the movement of the motors; see https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/Machine_configuration/Configuration_coreXY#testing-motor-movement

@droftarts here it is, thanks a lot!! please let me know if there is a way to store errors for future readings...

@Jiarko Most likely, your Y motor is running in the wrong direction. You need to add a line for M569 for the new driver (0.3). Because S1 is the default, and you were using S0 on driver 0.1, which was the Y axis driver. So add
M569 P0.3 S0to config.g, in the Drives section, eg:; Drives315 M569 P0.0 S0 ; physical drive 0.0 goes backwards M569 P0.1 S0 ; physical drive 0.1 goes backwards M569 P0.2 S1 ; physical drive 0.2 goes forwards M569 P0.3 S0 ; physical drive 0.1 goes backwards M569 P121.0 S1 ; physical drive 121.0 goes forwards M584 X0.0 Y0.3 Z0.2 E121.0 ; set drive mappingIan
