No joy - SDformatter. Copied full system back and exact same behavior.

To a new SD card, or the same one?

M550 P# FOLLY ; Set machine name

M540 PBE:EF:DE:AD:FE:ED ; Set MAC address

That M550 command is wrong, and I don't know the effect of the format you have used. It should be M550 P"FOLLY".

M540 is also redundant, see https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Reference/Gcodes#m540-set-mac-address

On WiFi-equipped Duet boards (Duet 3 Mini 5+ WiFi and Duet 2 WiFi) the MAC address is unique and set on the WiFi Module so this command has no effect.

Please post the response to M122. Also the response to the SD card troubleshooting commands: https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/RepRapFirmware/SD_card#troubleshooting-sd-card-issues

Reformatted old SD. Ethernet board. M122 and M39 appear ok to these old eyes.

Can you update your firmware/dwc/etc to 3.5.1?

@Ethelred did you make the changes I suggested to config.g?

Ian

Ethelred

Changes made to config file as suggested and 3.5.1 update installed.
Strange behavior persists. !!!

Do you have a fresh sd card to try?

Can you send M98 P"config.g" and report the results?

Ethelred

SD on the way - What would one do without Amazon ?

I'm in the dark as to "open file count", it's impact , and what to and how to mitigate it.

Can you post your config-override.g?

Ethelred

@Phaedrux
Config-overide. Sorry to be so unresponsive but what with cleaning out and moving house priorities get confused. Hopefully new SD tomorrow.

yes I'm curious to see if it makes a difference.

Phaedrux

Also, can you please post your tool change files if they exist?

tpre0.g tpost0.g

Can you upload the actual files as well for config.g, config-override.g, tool change files, etc?

Ethelred

@Phaedrux New, fast, big SD same behavior. No tpre0.g tpost0.g files.

I'm thinking a controller board glitch. Initial fail followed a perfect print with NO changes whatsoever. My problem (one of many) is that I'm electronically and software challenged. I'm tempted to buy a new board or take up golf.

config.g config-override.g

Phaedrux

Can you give a run down of the issues you're currently seeing?

Ethelred

Same as original post.. To recap
The printer homes normally. Don't know if thehoming offset leaves the nozzle in the correct location (no way to measure that). If, for example I command a simple G1 X100 the nozzle scoots away in an approximately 45 deg angle for perhaps 80-100mm and the Z ht looks to drop perhaps 20mm. If I reverse with a G1 X-100 it appears to return to the original position. Crazy.

@Ethelred Because you have M501 at the end of your config.g, it's loading config-override.g:

I think this bit must be causing problems:
M665 ... Z279.000

That's just wrong! It should be around zero, like the X and Y. Maybe calibration went wrong, and it's saved that. Try setting it to Z0, and/or redo the delta calibration and save it with M500, and see if it behaves after that.

Not so - M665H is the homing height distance from the bed in the case of a Delta printer.
Does no one think it just might be the Duet electronics? Are you monitoring this Mr. Crocker?

droftarts

@Ethelred I didn't say M665 H, I said Z! M665 Z is

Znnn Z tower position correction

See https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/Reference/Gcodes#m665-set-delta-configuration

Definitely wrong!
