Getting Duet Ethernet not Connected.

Use the RepRapFirmware configurator.
; Network
M550 PHenk ; Set machine name
M552 S1 ; Enable network
;*** Access point is configured manually via M587
M586 P0 S1 ; Enable HTTP
M586 P1 S0 ; Disable FTP
M586 P2 S0 ; Disable Telnet

Follow the steps on the “Getting Connected to your Duet” Terminal on the mac.
/dev/tty.*
/dev/tty.Bluetooth-Incoming-Port /dev/tty.usbmodem1421
screen /dev/tty.usbmodem1421 115200

I get blank screen.
M552
Network is enabled, configured IP address: 0.0.0.0, actual IP address: 0.0.0.0
ok
M552 S1
OK

No IP address is showing.
IP address: 0.0.0.0 is not working on the mac.
Using DHCP with Manual address 0.0.0.0 gives warning Invalid IP Address.
Automatic DHCP result: Ethernet has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the Internet.

Using the factory setup was 2 times working.

What to do?

Evidently the Duet has not been assigned an IP address via DHCP. Have you connected the Duet Ethernet to your router, or directly to your PC?

Duet Ethernet is connected directly to the mac.
DHCP gives: IP address 169.254.12.65 and 255.255.0.0
The warning I get is: Ethernet has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the Internet.

DHCP Manual IP 0.0.0.0 gives the message :The value entered is reserved for the default route and cannot be used as the IP address for this computer.

Your Mac almost certainly doesn't run a DHCP server by default, so you will need to use static IP addresses to connect a Duet and a Mac together directly. Same as with a Duet and a PC.

I did.
Network is enabled, configured IP address: 192.168.1.14, actual IP address: 192.168.1.14

Static I use now 192.168.1.14
Direct the warning :Another device on the network is using your computer’s IP address (192.168.1.14).
What will be next step. Why so difficult.Getting Connected to your Duet is unclear.

If that's the static IP address you assigned to the Duet, what IP address did you assign to the Mac? They need to be different, e.g. 192.169.1.14 and 192.168.1.15.

Thanks for your quick reply. This was the problem. Duet is working now.
