Endstops on expansion connector not working
-
Hi!
I'm trying to get work any of endstop pins on expansion connector. I've connected GND (pin2) and E2_STOP (pin4) to normaly closed emergency stop button. Put in config.g M581 E0:6 S1 C0 T0, restarted board. But nothing happens when I pushing and releasing the button. I tried to connect button to another slot pins (2+14, 2+24), no luck. But it works perfectly when connect to E0_STOP or E1_STOP.
Duet Web Control at tab "machine properties" shows changing of status for drive's 0-4 endstops, but 5-9 always in status Endstop hit No, 10-11 - yes.Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet WiFi
Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.0
Firmware Version: 1.20 (2017-12-23)
WiFi Server Version: 1.20
Web Interface Version: 1.20Thanks for help.

To use the endstop connections on the expansion connector, you need to use firmware 1.21RC1 or later.

Thank you for answer, dc42
I've updated firmware:
Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later
Firmware Version: 1.21RC1 (2018-01-25)
WiFi Server Version: 1.21RC1
Web Interface Version: 1.20Endstop now displays inverted (Machine properties->Drive Configuration).
The state changes to "No" when endstop is touched (home position, led is on now on duet board).
See screenshot
Endstops 0-2 (x,y,z) on screenshot was activated (shorted to gnd, home position); E0 & E1 not connected at all. Previous fw (v1.20 duet & v1.20 web server) displayed "Yes" in the same situation for 0-2 and "No" for 3,4.And about endstops on expansion conn – nothing changed after fw update, trigger not working, state not changes at tab "machine properties").

Do you still have S0 in your M574 command, or have you changed it?
It's normal for E0 and E1 to show as triggered when nothing is connected to them and they have no corresponding axes, because in the absence of a M574 command to configure them (which you can only do if you have another 2 axes) they default to active high.

Sometimes I see drive 8 endstop state randomly changes. Tried to pull-up Epin_STOP with 10k to 3.3v, tried different pins, tried to connect STOP pin directly to to GND, state not changes.
I flashed fw 1.20 again:
Firmware Name: RepRapFirmware for Duet WiFi
Firmware Electronics: Duet WiFi 1.0
Firmware Version: 1.20 (2017-12-23)
WiFi Server Version: 1.21RC1
Web Interface Version: 1.20In same conditions, just after update "Machine properties" – see screenshot

I am sorry, the pin assignments for the expansion connector endstop inputs are wrong in the 1.21RC1 firmware. Please try 1.21RC2 which I hope to release later today.
-
Thank you!
I've updated to 1.21RC2, endstops on expansion connector works well.
But there area strange behavior. The button (normally closed) connected to E2 pin.
M581 E0:6 S1 C0 T0 – trigger for E2 does not work
M581 E2 S1 C0 T0 – trigger for E2 pin works well -
Command M581 E2 S1 C0 T0 is the correct command for setting up a trigger on the E2 endstop input. Why were you expecting M581 E0:6 S1 C0 T0 to have anything to do with the E2 pin?
-
On the basis of the documentation https://duet3d.com/wiki/G-code#M581:_Configure_external_trigger
Example
M581 E1:2 S1 T2 C1 ; invoke trigger 2 when a rising edge is detected on the E1 or E2 endstop input and a file is being printed from SD cardI thought that E1:2 indicates a range in that example. What does symbol ":" exactly means in this command (M581) ?
-
Yes, it means exactly the numbers in the colon-separated list.
