Solved My PanelDue7i Keep Says "connecting"
-
Hello, I connected a PanelDue7i using the 10-Pin 300mm Ribbon Cable I received along with the PanelDue in the CONN_SD slot on both the PanelDue and my Duet 2 Wifi. I used a FLUKE multimeter to perform a continuity check on each wire of the ribbon cable (all wires passed the check). I also made sure the baud rates on both the Duet 2 Wifi and PanelDue 7i were 57600. However, the PanelDue still says "connecting." Please Help.
-
What firmware are you running on the Duet and PanelDue respectively?
Does your config.g contain the command to enable the PanelDue?
Do you have a 4-wire cable to test with as an alternative?
-
I am running PanelDue fw 3.4.0 and RepRap 3.3 my config.g has M575 P1 S1 B57600 and I don't have a 4 wire cable right now. However I can make one in 10 minutes.
-
3.4 on the Panel and 3.3 on the Duet should probably work, but just in case, you can update the Duet as well. You should be on 3.4 anyway.
Upload this zip file as is to the system tab:
https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.4.0/Duet2and3Firmware-3.4.0.zip
If that doesn't help, please try a 4-wire cable. If you don't plan on using the SD card slot on the PanelDue the 4-wire cable is preferred anyway.
If you're still having troubles after trying that please post your full config.g and the results of M122 and M98 P"config.g". Also post the exact firmware version of the PanelDue as shown on the setup tab.

Done. I uploaded the files.

@tratoon said in My PanelDue7i Keep Says "connecting":
Exact Panel Due fw version: 3.4.0
https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/RepRapFirmware/Updating_PanelDue
You can try the latest pre-release paneldue firmware as well.
-
@phaedrux Updating the firmware didn't work it still says connecting.
-
Can you post your full config?
-
@phaedrux The four wire worked. However, I would like SD functionality. What do you suggest? Should I ask my distributor for a new cable?
-
However, I checked the continuity of the ribbon cable and it was continuous. So what else could be the problem?
-
It's getting power through the ribbon cable, but it seems like the data connection is not working.
Can you also check the resistance of the ribbon cable wires?
Can you also inspect the socket on the board for solder defects?
-
@phaedrux Will do thank you
