Paneldue issues since updating to DWC 3.5.4
-
I upgraded my Duet Mini 5+ to DWC 3.5.4 and now, my Paneldue (v2.0 7") won't finish starting up. It gets to the stage of showing that HTTP is enabled but it just sits there after that. I can touch buttons like to home iit and they beep but do nothing. It only shows the bed temp and the upper righthand corner just says starting up. It was on firmware 1.1 so I updated it to 1.25 which is, I believe, the latest the older one can be updated to. Is that correct or did I misinterpret that. I did try the latest version as well but that won't install. Just says not enough flash space.
Thoughts?

@SpeedyDad Sounds like you have a PanelDue V2 from before August 2016, when the flash memory size was increased. PanelDue v1.25 firmware won't work with current RRF versions, because the method of communication has changed (it queries the Object Model now, rather than using M408), and the encoding has changed (now CRC). Time for a new PanelDue, unfortunately. The screen itself may still be usable, so you could replace the V2 with a V3 PanelDue.

I was afraid of that. I guess that is the cost of progress.

It depends how much flash memory you actually have on it. My v2 is able to run the latest paneldue firmware for instance, so it may be worth trying to update.

Yeah, like I said above, I tried it. No luck. Not enough flash storage.

@SpeedyDad If you can find the MCU on the PanelDue, you can check which version it is, see https://docs.duet3d.com/Duet3D_hardware/Accessories/PanelDue#version-history
Early version 2 - ATSAM3S2B processor (64MHz, 32kb RAM, 128kB flash)
Version 2 (Manufactured from August 2016) - ATSAM3S4B processor (64MHz, 48kb RAM, 256kb flash).Most likely it's over 9 years old, which isn't a bad run!
