Cannot Connect to Duet 3 Web Control

@phaedrux Is the latest stable release not 3.3? What happens if the SD card has 3.3 and the board has 3.4?

Frank 0 · 15 Jul 2021, 16:09

@phaedrux Made a new SD card and have this on it. .
Is this all I need?

The SD card doesn't really hold firmware in any meaningful way other than it has the bin files available to be flashed to the board itself. We can go back to 3.3 once you have solid access to dwc again.

No I listed the needed folders above. In addition to those you'll actually need a firmware folder as well.

Technically those are the bare minimum. But we should create the rest so it doesn't complain.

@phaedrux Could you point me back to where you listed the folders I need? I don't see it, I must be blind. I download the 3.3 firmware and then just put it in the www folder?

@kb58 After using Bossa to reset my firmware, I cannot find the config.g file. The sys folder changed to this

I have never seen anything like that before.

I suggest you get a clean new SD card, format it as FAT32, and then start fresh from there.

Create the following folders

sys
macros
www
gcodes
menu
filaments

Create a fresh config file set from here: https://configtool.reprapfirmware.org/Start

Fill out the info to the best of your knowledge. We just want a starting point.

What firmware bin file version did you use to flash with Bossa? 3.3?

https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.3/DuetWebControl-SD.zip

Download that zip file and extract it into the /www/ folder.

That should get your SD card back to a working state.

Here it is.

@phaedrux What should be in the macros/gcodes/menu/filaments folder? I can make the folders, but Im not sure what to put in them.

Phaedrux · 15 Jul 2021, 19:48

@frank-0 Nothing. They will be empty.

The gcodes folder is where your uploaded print files will go. menu is a folder for menu files when using a rotary encoder display. And filaments is used to store filament profiles if you set them up. They just need to exist otherwise you'll get a little warning that they are mising.

Oh, and the firmware folder is where firmware files will go in future

@phaedrux I got this set up and have this currently:

This is my config.g file:

and I extracted 3.3 firmware into www folder. YAT still doesn't really work. M552 S1 P192.168.2.2 just responds with ok, not network running.

Frank 0 · 15 Jul 2021, 19:52

@frank-0 There is also no lights lit up at bottom of the ethernet port

Don't do that.

If you send M552 what does it say?

Don't forget to add a folder called firmware.

Frank 0 · 15 Jul 2021, 19:55

@phaedrux www folder :

YAT literally just says "ok", like in the images above from a while ago.

Should I just make an empty folder called "firmware"?

Phaedrux · 15 Jul 2021, 19:56

Are you able to ping 192.168.2.2?

What IP is your computer using?

Have you tried a different cable?

Do the lights on the ethernet port light up if you connect to your router instead? even briefly?

Frank 0 · 15 Jul 2021, 19:57

@phaedrux Timed out, is unreachable. Can't ping it

@phaedrux Computer is using an assigned IP address I changed in the control panel. It is 192.168.2.1. I tried different cable and no the lights don't light up at all.

Not with the router either?

Frank 0 · 15 Jul 2021, 20:03

@phaedrux Yeah doesn't light up with either computer or router

Phaedrux · 15 Jul 2021, 20:06

Alright, I think we've solved the firmware problem since it's able to speak with YAT now and it is taking and executing commands.

I think we have the SD card issue solved.

Can you post your current config.g from the /sys/ folder please?
