Maestro config not being executed on startup
-
Hi everyone,
I recently have been converting my CR-10 to use a Duet 2 Maestro and have never used a Duet before. I have followed all the getting started/getting connected guides including going through RepRap firmware configuration tool to generate a config file. I have no issues connecting to the Duet through the web interface and from the web interface I can access and edit all SD Card files including the config file. However as far as I can tell the Duet isn't executing the config at all on startup. Firstly, the config includes the uncommented line:
M552 P0.0.0.0 S1
To my understanding this line tells the Duet to turn networking on upon startup and receive an IP address through DHCP. However every time I start the Duet networking is turned off by default and I have to send this command manually. Also none of the Machine Properties in the web interface actually reflect the config file which again leads me to believe that it's not being executed.
The Duet is running firmware version 2.02RC5 and web interface version 1.22.6.
Here is a screenshot of the Machine Properties:
Here is the config file in full:

and the config.g file is in the /sys/ folder?
-
Yeah it is in the sys folder
-
try running M98 Pconfig.g and see if it complains about any errors?
-
I get these two errors:
Error: M911: No power fail script provided
Error: G0/G1: insufficient axes homed -
not too familiar with how the firmware handles errors, but does it make a difference to move the network config block up to over the M911 command? or commenting out the offending lines with a ;
-
Ah yep so I got rid of the M911 line from the config and that's fixed it. The error must have been stopping the Duet from reading the rest of the config file. Thanks heaps for the help.

I can't see anything particularly wrong with this line, except you've used single quotes rather than double quotes. However, you probably need to set up the sys/resurrect-prologue.g file.

According to https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M911_Configure_auto_save_on_loss_of_power you need to use double quotes for the P parameter.
The messageError: G0/G1: insufficient axes homedleads me to think that the single-quoted P parameter command line from theM911command is being interpreted and executed at config.g runtime as there is aG1command in there. -
@themelle that seems to be the explanation, I was wondering where the G0/G1 line was.

including going through RepRap firmware configuration tool to generate a config file.
Did the RRF configurator generate the M911 line with single quotes? If so that should probably be filed as a bug

it is a bug @chrishamm

I would move the whole network section of g code to almost the top of the config.g file so that the network gets started first...

seems it was further up earlier, but changed recently, and the quotes bug was introduced at the same time. wonder if that is the reason for the sudden increase in threads with network issues.
anyways, hopefully the quotes will be fixed and the network moved back to the top shortly.
-
The position of the network command shouldn't matter, but the wrong quotes for the power loss recovery halting the execution of the config certainly is a problem.
Oddly, if the network section hadn't been moved down it would have been much harder to spot the wrong quote problem.

@phaedrux said in Maestro config not being executed on startup:
The position of the network command shouldn't matter
for users who find it difficult to use the serial terminal it does matter when errors are introduced, further complicated by the missmatch between default EOL in the firmware and the recommended terminal.
if the network were given "priority" at the top, and the web interface and/or paneldue would indicate that config.g was terminated due to an error everyone wins.
-
@bearer No argument there.
One helpful trick for issues like this is to send
M98 Pconfig.gwhich will re-execute config.g as a macro, and any error messages will be echoed back, unlike at startup. I do wish that any startup errors would get punted to the console as well, but currently that's not the case. -
I find Arduino IDE serial monitor really quick and easy to use to talk to Duets and other boards, it has a drop down menu to set line endings and baud rate on the serial window.
