I've put the 3.6.0-alpha.5 binaries at https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/u79134f365jdacqsm0km3/AKMSKB_Fz63WH4hqLkIphuQ?rlkey=bpa9lja4jylkpu9syjfp31rho&dl=0 and the release notes at https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/wiki/Changelog-RRF-3.x-Beta#reprapfirmware-360-alpha5.

@dc42 I didnt check the exact time , but just under 40 min would be about right for me too.

curieos

@dc42 Mine was actually around the 3.5-4 hour mark for the print. The print I was doing was around 3.75 hours, and it paused with around 15 minutes left. There may have been a delay in the print start too, my machine is a flying gantry so I need to rerun G32 every time the motors shut off, and I may have waited a bit of time for heat soaking since I was printing ASA, so it could've been 4-4.5 hours after the restart.

Just ran the initial function test with alpha.5, and the "pause" after each probe move that I mentioned back in July is gone now. Which sure is nice

I've noticed that a bug from earlier (don't remember when) seem to have been reintroduced though, when i push the "bed leveling" button on PD i't don't display any of the messages nested in bed.g on the PD, only in DWC.

Running the same test print as earlier on alpha.5 now to see if finish without any step timing errors.

And I can also comfirm that it finished the same test print without any issues!

The PA changes is quite segnificant compared to alpha.2 as well. As can be seen in the test prints:
alt text

Pressure advance changing every 10mm in these increments:

0-10mm = PA: 0.045s.
10-20mm = PA: 0.025s.
20-30mm = PA. 0.01s.
30-40mm = PA: 0.0075s.
40-50mm = PA: 0.005s.
50-60mm = PA: 0s / off.

@dc42 Testing 3.6.0-alpha.5 on my Duet2Wifi Ender 5 Plus using the same gcode that failed before. Also using DWC 3.6.0-alpha.2+1.

Just passed 40 minutes with no issues.

Thanks. The bug could also occur at multiples of 47 (38 on Duet 2) minutes after the machine has been powered up or reset.

@Adrian52 Thank you for your copy of bed.g. The one big difference that I saws that the initial move in your file, after homing, is to move the head just above the probe point, where as in the version that I had, I was moving to X0 Y0. When I changed it to go just above the first point, so that the head is vertically above the first probe point, the bed calibration routine worked fine.

So, it looks like there seems to be a difference in the behavior depending on where the head is, relative to the first probe point and it is quite repetable for me. This seems to be a regression as compared to 3.5.2. At this point, I am glad that I found a way to get bed calibration working again on 3.6.0.

@dc42 can you check the behaviour on your end to see if you are able to reproduce this issue on the delta that you have?

Thanks,
Balaji

@dc42
Duet2Wifi print completed after 1 hour 46 minutes without issues.
Thanks for the fix.

Thanks, I too had a move to just above the first probe point in my bed.g file, and if I use a move to X0 Y0 instead then I see the issue that you reported.

Adrian52

@dc42 a 1hr print completed for me too - thanks for the fix. Print quality looks very nice too.

dc42

@balajiramani I've fixed that in the new binaries at https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/u79134f365jdacqsm0km3/AKMSKB_Fz63WH4hqLkIphuQ?rlkey=bpa9lja4jylkpu9syjfp31rho&dl=0. The main build binaries are now version 3.6.0-alpha.5+1. Expansion board binaries are still 3.6.0-alpha.5.

Notepad

Just doing a simple test print and I noticed the extruder stopped pushing filament after 2 minutes.
After pause and cancelling the print, I manually started extruding some filament to see if it was a nozzle clog and I get the following error

Error: Push(): stack overflow on Aux
Error: Pop(): stack underflow on Aux

I have noticed a few times my PanelDue has seemed slightly unresponsive with delays between button presses and actions happening. This has also appeared during homing where the transition from HomeY.g to HomeZ.g has had a micro delay.

So far the test has been on 3.6.a5 next is to test a5+1

Edit:

A5+1 same extruder stopping behaviour, no pop/push error
Reverted to 3.5.2 and behaviour is identical. I think the roto extruder cannot push more than 30cubicmm/s with my current setup as it is stalling

As I am exceedingly fresh with SBC equipped duets, If there is a recommended process on how to update the SBC (pi5) instead of me dropping in the new 3.6.Ax .bin files, I would very much appreciate the advice.

Edit 2:

Something is up with my config.g or my roto as its stalling at relatively normal speeds regardless of firmware versions. The actually motor stalling is probably a red herring of a new machine (never used a roto before) but the Push/Pop error is definitely something out of the ordinary.

balajiramani

@dc42 Thank you! Verified that this version workes, irrespective of what the starting point for the bed calibration is.

o_lampe

@balajiramani Thanks for being so persistent, posting your calibration issues. It's a huge relieve for me, @dc42 found a solution.
I wondered if it was related to the, IHMO pretty huge endstop differences?

dc42

@Notepad I think the Push and Pop errors are happening because you are still running version 3.5.2 of Duet Control Server.

balajiramani

@o_lampe I think how @dc42 interacts with the community and listens to each one of us, is what makes the whole Duet ecosystem amazing!

While the endstop values are high, I don't think it is related to that. @dc42 what do you think?

Thanks,
Balaji

dc42

@balajiramani it wasn't relayed to the endstop adjustments. The code to segment automatically-generated moves didn't always work.

@dc42
