Duet - no response back
-
I am trying to connect to Duet via YAT terminal. I get no responses back from Duet. Any ideas? The port is open and connected
-
Does the port show up as a Duet in Device Manager?
Have you set the line end sequence in YAT to LF?
-
yes it shows up in device manager, YAT says serial port COM15 is open and connected. I dont kow what LINE END SEQUENCE is.
-
In YAT go to Terminal -> Settings ->Text Settings. You will find the EOL setting there.
-
changed and still no response back from Duet
-
com port was shut down for some reason….changed com port and I can connect now.
Is = WiFi signal strength -38dBm, reconnections 0, sleep mode modem okay? -
Yes, -38dBm is a very strong signal.
-
cool cuz its at -43 now…....i moved it closer.
Also with regards to this in the 1.21 RC5 update
On Cartesian and CoreXY printers, normal G0 and G1 moves are no longer allowed before the corresponding axes have been homed. In particular, if your homex.g, homey.g and homeall.g files raise Z a little at the start and lower it at the end, you will need to add the S2 parameter to those G1 Z moves. Otherwise the G1 Z move will be refused unless Z has already been homed and the homing macro will be terminated.would that be like this?
G1 S2 Z5 F6000 ; lift Z relative to current positionIt was G1 Z5 F6000
getting errors about homing now, and z axis doesnt stop when endstop is triggered.M120
G91
G1 Z-1 F6000
M121
Error: G0/G1: insufficient axes homed
Error: Pop(): stack underflow! -
Yes, adding S2 to that G1 Z5 command should fix that.
1.21RC5 is now out of date because version 1.21 has been released. (RC means Release candidate).

thank you. Updated the web interface and now to test… still getting errors.

It sounds that you are still missing some S2 modifiers in your homez.g, homey.g and homeall.g files. If you are using a Z probe to home Z then you need to home X and Y first.

homeall.g looks ok to me.
homex.g needs S2 added to line "G1 Z-5 F6000" because Z is not necessarily homed at that point. Same for homey.g.
homez.g looks OK, but you need to home X and Y before running homez.
-
thank you
-
Added the S2 command to those files….
homed x - no error
homed y - no error
homed z and....G28 Z
Error: G0/G1: insufficient axes homed
however when I use Home All
no errors and homes greatI added S2 to the homez file and seems to work fine now

new issue….
when i load an .stl file and try to print, the connection terminates. -
You can't print an STL file directly, you need to slice it first and then upload and print the .gcode file that the slicer generates.
