      Good afternoon, I got a new 6HC the other day with the WiFi module add-on. I just got everything wired up and the configuration created. I have two Z motors, 2 Y motors, 1 X, and 1E. I have the two motors for Z and Y tied to each other. The first issue is it will not upgrade to firmware 3.5.0, it is stuck on 3.4.5. The DWC is on 3.5.0. I have tried several times to install it, and it acts like it is installing and restarts the board and it is still 3.4.5.

      The second issue is that I can not get the WiFi setup, I have tried several times and it still will not connect. I can connect over ethernet with no issues.

      The final issue is that I can not get anything to home correctly. The motors will move very little and just stop and act like they are homed. This is my second DUET, I have a Maestro on my other printer, which has been very good. I am not sure where I am going wrong.

      Here is what I have for a configure file so far.

        @yagodajm Update, finally got the firmware to update, so I am at 3.5.0 RC 2 on the HC and the DWC. I am getting an error on start up of the WiFi card being disabled, which is strange since I have it enabled. I am still unable to get the axises to home at all. I am also using OUT0 for my bed and I am not getting 24 V from that output when I turn on the bed heater.

        Sorry for all the questions, I never had this many issues with the other board. I have read over so many of the documents on the website and can't figure out where I am going wrong.

        Thanks,
        Justin

          Can you send M122 and M98 P"config.g" in the gcode console and share the results here?

            I was able to get the heated bed working, so right now it is just the WiFi and homing the axises.

              Ok so I am still having issues with the WiFI and getting anything to home properly.

              First the WiFi, I worked on this all day today. I have the Module and server firmware installed. I keep getting an error that the WiFi is disabled. I ran a M552 I1 S0 and got a green box saying it was accepted. I then ran a M552 I1 S1 and also got a green box saying it was accepted. Under Machine-Specific it shows the server version, but I still can get it to connect to my network. I ended up wiping the board and reloading all the firmware, I read this may fix the issue. However, after reinstalling the firmware, I am still having the same issues. Should there be any indicator LEDs on the module? I read something about green and blue but did not see when these should happen. I see a quick LED flicker green when I first boot the board, but that is the only time I see the light. I am at a complete loss.

              I am also still having issues getting anything to home correctly. I even went back and did the whole config setup in the older version of RRF. I was thinking maybe some of the settings were not correct. That still did not work.

              Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am pulling my hair out.

              Thanks,
              Justin

                @yagodajm which wifi server version are you running? Have you tried 2.1b6?

                  @yagodajm did you follow the instructions here? https://docs.duet3d.com/Duet3D_hardware/Duet_3_family/Duet_3_Mainboard_6HC_Hardware_Overview#wifi-module-installation-and-setup
                  Particularly:

                  Note that the wifi module is the second network interface on the 6HC (the ethernet interface is the first one) so all M552 commands need to contain "I1" to indicate they are for the wifi module interface.

                  So make sure you have M552 I1 S1 in your config.g, the config you posted earlier only has M552 S1. Also remove M587 in your config.g; you do not need to keep setting WiFi SSID and password.

                  Post your current config and homing macros. What motors do you have on the axes?

                    @jay_s_uk Good evening, Yes, I am using 2.1b6. I am using the one from this repository. https://github.com/Duet3D/WiFiSocketServerRTOS/releases DuetWiFiServer_32S3.bin

                      @droftarts Good Evening, Here are my current config and homing files. I am using StepperOnline motors. I have these on my other printer and they work great. They are Bipolar 2.0 A. I added the line in my config for the WiFi, I just don't think the server is starting up automatically like it should, If I do a M552 I1 S1 and look on the Machine_ specific page it shows the firmware number. I still never get any lights on the wifi module itself.

                      Thanks,

                        @yagodajm Good evening, Ok I got all the motors wired up and double-checked everything. I still can't get anything to home correctly with the home files above. When I do home all or home each one, it acts like it will home and just stops and the axis turns blue like it has been homed. I can move that axis, but only in one direction.

                        I finally got the WiFi to connect. I was in the DWC and ran a M552 I1 S0, M552 I1 S1, and a M587 with the WiFi network and password. I got a green LED and it connected. Do I just have to add the M552 I1 S1 to the config file for it to connect every time?

                        I will continue to got through Home files to see what I am missing. One not, this printer is one where the bed raises up and down and the Y and X move back and forth. Do I have to do a different config? I also have two motors on Z on two separate axis, two motors on Y on two separate axis, and X by itself. Would it just be better to tie the two Z and two Y to one driver?

                        Thanks for all of you help so far.

                          @yagodajm Ok, I got X and Y to home correctly, I had to set the endstops to Low. Those now home properly. I am still having an issue with Z and the BL touch probe.

                          This is what the configurator tool created.

                          ; Probes
                          M558 K0 P9 C"""io2.in""" H5 F120 T6000 ; configure BLTouch probe via slot #0
                          G31 P500 X0 Y0 Z0.7 ; set Z probe trigger value, offset and trigger height
                          M950 S0 Cio2.out ; create servo #0 for BLtouch
                          

                          I get this error on start-up Error in start-up file macro line 49: Unknown pin name '"io2.in"'

                          My question is what are there 3 sets of " around the io2.in pin? And why are there now around io2.out?

                          If I remove the " from the io2.in and add a set to io2.out, then the on homing after x and Y home, the hotend will move to the center of the bed and I get this error. Error: line 12 column 135: meta command: array index out of bounds
                          Error: Failed to home axes Z

                          I looked through the documentation, but Can't find any answers.

                          Thanks,
                          Justin

                            @yagodajm you should have 1 set of " around the io pin

                              @jay_s_uk I tried that I still get this error, Error: line 12 column 135: meta command: array index out of bounds
                              Error: Failed to home axes Z. I have tried every combination so far. I also noticed that when I try and test my BLTouch nothing happens. When I first turn on my printer it does a double click and it is red, so I know it works.

                                @jay_s_uk I tried that I still get this error, Error: line 12 column 135: meta command: array index out of bounds
                                Error: Failed to home axes Z. I have tried every combination so far. I also noticed that when I try and test my BLTouch nothing happens. When I first turn on my printer it does a double click and it is red, so I know it works.

                                Why are you trying to find xCenter, etc using move.compensation.probeGrid.mins[0] and so forth?

                                  @fcwilt This is the file that the RRF Config tool made. I think everything is different with the 3.5 config tool now. My other printer is running on 3.4.6 so the files are all different. I can't use those files for a comparison.

                                    The error you mentioned suggests that the lines that are setting xCenter and yCenter are attempting to index into values that do not exist.

                                    As a test set xCenter and yCenter directly to values that you compute by hand and see if the error goes away.

                                      @fcwilt Good afternoon, Ok I finally got a chance to make changes to the home file. I just set X150 Y150. That worked, the error went away and the z axis homed. I am not sure why the RRF is making the home files like that now, it is very confusing.

                                      One last question, my hotend fan comes right on when I start up my printer. I changed that line every which way and can't get it to shut off. It should only come on when the hotend gets to 45c. It is just a regular 2 wire fan.

                                      I have it wired on out4 GND and V_outLC1.

                                      M950 F1 C"out4" ; create fan #1
                                      M106 P1 S0 B0.1 H1 T45 ; configure fan #1
                                      

                                      Any ideas?

                                      Thanks,
                                      Justin

                                        It's a very bad idea because it relies on values that may not be set when homing Z, as you have found.

                                        It should be wired to OUT4 instead of OUT4 GND.

                                          @fcwilt thank you, that worked. The part fan should be wired the same way, correct.
