ANOTHER "No known networks found" error

[duncan-rtfm]

I have also set the default gateway (in the config.g) to that of my router, and set an arbitrary fixed IP address, like so:

M552 P192.168.0.200 ; IP address

M554 P192.168.0.1 ; Gateway

But when I ping the address, I get the following:

I'm wondering if my WiFi module might be faulty?

If you send these commands via yat what does it return?

M552 ; report wifi status
M552 S0 ; disable wifi module
M552 S1 ; enable wifi module
M552 S0 ; disable wifi module
M588 S"*" ; clear all WiFi networks
M587 S"MySSID" P"MyPassword" ; add wifi network
M552 S1 ; enable wifi module

Here you go...

[duncan-rtfm]

I sent these as a text file. Would it be better to send each individually?

[Phaedrux]

Send each command in YAT one at a time, if that's what you're asking.

I have just spent some time working my way through the online configurator, and this is the result - at least it is a bit different... But still no coconut...

RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet Version 2.02(RTOS) dated 2018-12-24b1

Executing config.g...Error: M587: Failed to add SSID to remembered list

M587 won't work from config.g, it needs to be sent from the terminal.

If it still won't work when sent through YAT, I'm all out of ideas. It may be a faulty wifi module. DC42 would have to confirm.

[duncan-rtfm]

And I've now tried connecting to a different router (from YAT). Still no luck.

@duncan-rtfm said in ANOTHER "No known networks found" error:

I have also gone into the config.g file, and hard coded the network settings as per a post I found on the forum, like this:
;*** Networking

M552 S1 ; Turn network on

M555 P2
M550 Duncan's Ender3 ; Set machine name
M551 DuetPassword ; Set password (for Duet Web interface, not for WiFi network)
M587 S"MySSID" P"MyPassword" ;Set SSID and network key password for WiFi network.
M552 S1 ; Enable network

But of course, the issue is with establishing a wifi connection to begin with, so this rather convenient piece of code is useless.

M587 does not work from within config.g. Send it manually from YAT. Or you can put the M587 command in a macro file and run that after enabling the WiFi module.

However, those "bad reply format version" messages that you are still getting have convinced me that your Duet is probably faulty. Please ask your supplier to replace it.

[duncan-rtfm]

Hi,
Thank you all for your patience, and for sticking with this to the end. I'll post the box back to the supplier tomorrow morning. I will update this thread when the new Duet arrives.

@duncan-rtfm
The new board arrived, I plugged in the USB cable, fired up YAT, and Voila! It worked first time.

HOWEVER, I now have some additional questions, if I may:

Here is my board, plugged in to power.

and here is the Duet 2 Web interface:

Does this look right? Why does Heater 1 say fault? I am hoping it is simply a matter of setting the temperature?

Thanks,
Duncan

[dc42]

Do you have a T0 command in config.g? if so, that will activate the tool, which uses Heater 1, which doesn't have a valid temperature reading because on thermistor is connected.

[duncan-rtfm]

Hi. I'm still at work, but I'll check as soon as I get home.

[duncan-rtfm]

Hi. Yes, T0 is the last line of the RRF Config generated config.g file

[dc42]

That would be because you checked the "Select first tool on startup" box.

[duncan-rtfm]

@dc42 Shouldn't I do that?
I've gone and bought a whole new hotend with heater and thermister already assembled (in case I screwed up that side of things). No difference. I THINK I have the hotend and its thermister plugged in correctly.

So I'm confused...

[duncan-rtfm]

@duncan-rtfm 

And this is where its thermister is plugged in. I also tried the plug next to it, just in case.

The web interface:

And the error message:

[duncan-rtfm]

Are all Duet boards this finicky?

[A Former User]

Could be a configuration issue; share the relevant part of your config.g file to show how the thermistor for the heater is configured?

[duncan-rtfm]

OK, hang on...
