Solved Duet 3 Toolboard problem
-
Looking for help with a issue with the stepper driver on my Duet Toolboard. Just installed the Toolboard connected everything and Toolboard firmware updated. The Toolboard boots and everything works as expected except for the stepper motor. When an extrusion is called for the stepper motor energizes but will not rotate. I have tried this with hotend heater on and heated to above 160 and with cold extrusion allowed no change to stepper motor behavior. I confirmed the coil pairs of the stepper motor using my multimeter and confirmed stepper was wired correctly. Still no rotation of stepper motor. This same stepper motor works as expected when connected to main Duet 3 board. I have tried several different stepper motors that are known to be good and working. I am at a loss of what to look at next. I think the stepper driver is bad on the board. Upon board inspection I don’t see any damaged components or solder bridges. Any help would be appreciated.

Can you please provide the results of M122 and M122 B1 after trying to move the motor?
Can you also provide your config.g and the results of M98 P"config.g"?

It looks like your mainboard is running firmware 3.2 but your toolboard is running 3.3 beta 2. They will need to match.
Either update your mainboard and DSF to the unstable branch as well to match 3.3 beta 2, or flash the tool board back to 3.2.

Thanks I thought I had upgraded the main board as well. I will try making sure they match first and post my results. I appreciate the help. -

Thank you for the keen eye. I must have not done the M997 command to actually install the new firmware. The motor is operating as expected now. Thanks -
Glad it was that easy.
