Failed to enable endstops - not related to Firmware update

jene_jan

Hello,

I faced a strange problem today.

Background:

Firmware 3.3 - reinstalled it also to check if something is wrong with that -> no help
I have got config files work properly on Duet 3 mainboard with SBC (rasperry).
I've used the same config.g file with the Standalone version and tested that all worked well.
Today I uploaded the latest changes by uploading the config.g and other files, but after that Duet keep saying that Failed to enable endstops.
I went through all the files -> there are no other M574 in any files, no config-override, nothing.
I have restarted the machine several times in all different ways

Can it be possible that Duet board for some reason doesn't read the config.g file but keeps popping up some old version of it? Because I also noticed that removing 'disable jogging without homing' function from config.g didn't have effect.

This is the part of the config.g where the endstops are defined - so yes, those are properly configured by Firmware 3. And like I said, it works already on other machine with SBC and also it did on Standalone setup (without SBC) before the latest upload.

Can you send M122 and M98 P"config.g" and post the results?

When does it say "failed to enable endstops?"

jene_jan

@phaedrux Thanks for quick reply, will send the results soon. I have send M119 to check the endstop status -> result: 'no endstop' on any axis.

The given error 'Failed to enable endstops' comes if I try to home x/y axis. But the problem seems to be it doesn't recognize the configuration from config.g so from Duet perspective there's no endstops, hence cannot do the homing.

There seem to be the problem in meta commands... will fix that and try again.

M98 P"config.g"
Error: in file macro line 20 column 6: meta command: 'else' did not follow 'if'

@jene_jan post your complete config.g

jene_jan

@jay_s_uk The problem got solved, I had ' if else ' formula in the beginning of the config.g file that wasn't formatted right. I removed it and then the config.g started to work -> endstops got recognized.

The thing was that it didn't say it in any place that there's mistake. But the when loaded with M98 command the error became visible and that helped to solve the problem.
