Problems with micro SD card on a ROSTOCK MAX V 3.2
-
on pc, the micro sd card and the sd cards have all the files loaded. They are visible and i can open/ edit them with notepad ++. How would i set up access point mode? I have looked at both sd cards through the lcd, that sadly is not working. I will send M115 right now and let you know what happened. Thanks!
-
M 115 returns FIRMWARE_NAME: RepRapFirmware for Duet Wifi.
Also, what is panelDue? -
PanelDue is the touchscreen.
-
That's all? Should show quite a bit more.
Where/how was this? USB? or Touchscreen 'console' tab? or ?
-
@Danal thanks, i didn't even know that. When i put M 115 in the MatterControl terminal, that's all taht showed up. I am connected via usb to the printer.
-
After putting M 115 into the console, i get
FIRMWARE_NAME: RepRapFirmware for duet WiFi FIRMWARE_VERSION: 1.19.2 ELECTRONICS: Duet Wifi 1.0 FIRMWARE_DATE: 2017-09-01 -
The panelDue firmware i am using is firmware version 1.22.1(28b1)

From your USB terminal
M552 S0
This should put the WiFi module in "reset" or "idle" mode.M589 S"ssid" P"password" I"10.10.10.1"
This sets the WiFi module to AP mode. Use an SSID and Password that you like. (Do Not put this in config.g, it saves itself in the WiFi module)M552 S2
This actually starts the WiFi module. It is OK to put this in config.gA minute or so later, you can look for the SSID on your phone or tablet or whatever, and then connect to that network. Then connect to that IP address in a browser.

And... drum roll... that release is REALLY old.
Given your school environment, what permission is needed to upgrade? We can discuss exactly how after we determine what is OK and what is not OK.

That is also fairly old. And a slightly different upgrade procedure. Again, after you decide how you wish to proceed, we can discuss the details.

M589 S"ssid" P"password" I"10.10.10.1"
this returns "bad or missing parameter in M 589 command" . I do not have the school wifi password, and wouldn't be able to use it anyways, are you saying i should choose whatever i want for ssid and password? I can download any software on my computer, the only problem is that my school doesn't allow wifi access. I have no other restrictions. Thanks so much by the way!
-
How would i change the firmware updates?

By going AP, you are setting up a new network totally separate from the School's network. The ssid and password on this new network should NOT match the school, they should be your independent choice.
How about:
M589 S"rostocknet" P"pepperwool" I10.10.10.1
The bad parm error was from quotes around the IP address.

Step 1 is to get connected.

M589 S"rostocknet" P"pepperwool" I10.10.10.1
Okay, i feel like we're getting closer. After sending though, M552 S2, i get a Wifi reported error: failed to start access point.

Hmmm... try M552 S0 wait a min, M552 S2, wait, try that a couple of times.
-
I tried that just now for a few times. I forgot to mention that "Wifi module is idle" shows up every time i get the wifi reported error, is that important?

That's because firmware 1.19.x didn't support access point mode. This is what I suggest:
- Download iap4e.bin and DuetWiFiServer.bin from https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.03 and put them in /sys on the Duet SD card
- Download Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin from https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.05.1 and put it in /sys on the Duet SD card
- Also put a copy of Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin on the SD card renamed to DuetWiFiFirmware.bin, replacing any existing file of the same name
- Put the SD card back in the Duet and start the Duet
- From Matter Control, send M997 S1
- When that finishes updating the WiFi module firmware, send M997 (without the S1). It will disconnect.
- After 30 seconds, try to connect again. Send M115 and check the firmware version. It should be 2.05.1.
That will get the Duet firmware up to date. After that you can update the touch screen firmware.
-
Ok, great. I got the M997 step, but after disconnecting, i got
Warning: Macro file config-override.g not found.
Error: M375: Height map file heightmap.csv not found WiFi module started
And for some reason, after putting in M 115 into the terminal, the console doesn't respond with a statement. Should i try Access point mode anyways? -
Amazing, thank you guys. i got the Access point mode running. The only thing i am wondering about now are the constant errors i get when trying to do the first probe and the bed mapping. I keep getting
Error: Z probe already triggered at start of probing move
and also recieved a M 375 again. BUT i am so happy this thing finally works(almost)! thanks so much.
