Wifi module disabled at start

Haggan90

@jay_s_uk Aw crap... my config.g has been a constant trail and error document for years haha, finetuning and experimenting... is there no way to recover it?

Everything else on the SD-card seems to be there

jay_s_uk

@haggan90 you may be able to use some recovery software to get it back from the sd card, but otherwise, no

Haggan90

@jay_s_uk As soon as I restarted the board I lost connection again... very strange..

jay_s_uk

@haggan90 you will if you have no config.g

Phaedrux

There was a bug that could occasionally cause config.g to be lost. Upgrading to RRF 3.4+ would be recommended for many reasons. 2.05 is a few years old now.

If this is your first upgrade to RRF3 I suggest starting with a config file set from the online config tool.

@phaedrux well I guess I have no choice now Where does the duet save the login for the WiFi?

jay_s_uk

@haggan90 to the ESP (WiFi chip) flash

Haggan90

@jay_s_uk Aha ok, so it's not stored in the config.g file then?

Phaedrux

No, but the config file needs to have M552 S1 to enable the module at startup.

@phaedrux Hi,

I've been trying to migrate to RR3 for a coupple of days now but I just can't get it to work..
I've been using the config tool, but I can't see any diffrence in the gcode compared to my old config file, should it be so?

I can't even home any of the axis...

This is my config.g file atm.

This config is still for RRF2. Did you select RRF3 in the config tool on the first page?

; Configuration file for Duet WiFi (firmware version 1.21)

On the General tab, at the top, firmware version drop down should be 3.3 or later.

Haggan90

@phaedrux Ah, thanks!
Now I got it working, finaly!
I do have some problems with the endstops, sometimes they work and sometimes not.

@haggan90 thanks, I'll mark this as solved. If you don't resolve the issues with the endstops, please start a separate thread for that.
