Installation problem (human at fault)
-
Hey guys,
Yesterday on my duet 2 + wifi board I got everything working flawlessly. But, this morning, for some reason I decided to type in M997 S0 which in turn began to flash software on the board. Given that I am inherently stupid, I cut power as soon as I did this. I can no longer get the board to respond to any inputs, nor can I get it to show up in my device manager.
I have tried to locate the erase pins to jump them, but cannot.
I am very new to this sort of software implementation, as I am used to plug and play printers and things of that nature.
Any help would be much appreciated by this rookie.

@johndonges You're going to have to erase the firmware, and flash it with Bossa. See https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/RepRapFirmware/Updating_firmware#all-other-duet-boards
The erase jumper is on the corner of the main chip, between it and the E0 and E1 endstop connectors.Ian

While, as mentioned, you are going to have to use Bossa to recover, I don't think M997 would have done anything bad - it likely just would have re-installed the firmware already installed.

@droftarts , thanks for the info.
this machine is a modix big 60 v4, i flashed firmware 3.4.6 to it but i dont think it liked that. should i flash a lesser version to then upgrade to the noted 3.4.5 to start the process over?

@fcwilt Right, i see that now. I am more of a hands on guy and anything software related just frightens me for some reason lol. Hopefully i can get things back in order.

What didn't it like? You can't connect? 3.4.6 is the current release, and is recommended. Do you know what version you were on previously? And what exact firmware file did you flash to the Duet?
Flash this one: Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin in https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/3.4.6
You may need to update DWC on the SD card, too, with DuetWebControl-SD.zip that is in the same place, if you had a much older firmware version on before.
Alternatively, revert the firmware to the version you were on before, if known. If you don't know, posting your config.g file might give us an idea.

@droftarts Essentially i couldnt execute any commands. and when trying to put macros on the printer for all of the features, the printer did not recognize them.
Yesterday when it was working, i was on 3.4.5. It is almost as if the board is not recognizing the micro sd card.
I may try another sd card.

@johndonges 3.4.6 is a bug fix of 3.4.5, so there's nothing that would cause any problems like that. Check the SD card hasn't been popped out when you were plugging in the USB lead.
