Setting up a Duet 2 Maestro

Phaedrux

@todaystomsawyer not strictly needed, but certainly helpful.

You may be able to do this all through YAT

If you send

M552 P0.0.0.0 ; use dhcp
M552 S0 ; disable networking
M552 S1 ; enable networking
wait a few seconds for the module to come online and get an address, then
M552 P ; read back new ip address from router

you can then use that ip address to connect via your browser and follow along with the remainder of the setup guide.

I haven't tested this, but I think it should work. Let me know. If it does, I'll add it to the getting connected guide.

I tried your previous method which did not work. I found an SD card reader and moved the files over from the reprap tool. After following the steps again, I receive "Your duet rejected the HTTP request: page not found" in my browser. I looked into this error and saw another thread asking to try M39 to see if the board sees the SD card. I get "M39: No SD card mounted in slot 0" even though my SD card is in the slot.

Try sending M122 and look for the line in the response that says whether the SD card is detected or not.

I tried another SD card with the appropriate folders and new configuration files and I can now connect to the web interface. I guess it was just a bad SD card. Thank you!

I just opened my Duet 2 Maestro and I am having similar problems to original poster. I have current drivers and can connect to the duet via pronterface. I ran through the m552 p0.0.0.0; m552 s0; m552 s1; m552 p; and got the response "Bad IP address". I then checked m39 and saw that no SD card is present. I then used a new usb card, uploaded firmware 2.02 and ran through the same process and got the same results.

I feel stuck. what is my next step?

If it's a genuine Duet Maestro supplied by Duet3D, please submit a warranty claim. https://www.duet3d.com/warranty

Those of us in the states are not eligible it seems? I guess if I wanted to buy from the UK and ship I would get warranty opportunity? I will talk with M3D.

Phaedrux

@novaprint you'd have to contact your seller regardless.

** update

I've submitted a warranty claim to my distributor over two weeks ago. I got a reply asking for a list of what I have tried. Sent that in and followed up with a few reminder emails, but have not heard from them. So I decided to try my luck again with the Maestro. However, I am not able to use the web control. Here is what I have working. How can I get web control to work.

I have reimaged the SD card with the latest firmware and things seem to be working. I have confirmation that the I am running firmware 2.02.

m115
SENDING:M115
FIRMWARE_NAME: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 Maestro FIRMWARE_VERSION: 2.02(RTOS) ELECTRONICS: Duet Maestro 1.0 FIRMWARE_DATE: 2018-12-24b1

m39 to check if the sd card is reading (was not able to read this earlier)

m39
SENDING:M39
SD card in slot 0: capacity 0.51Gb, free space 0.50Gb, speed 15.00MBytes/sec, cluster size 8kb

M552 to enable network
m552
SENDING:M552
Network is enabled, configured IP address: 192.168.1.169, actual IP address: 192.168.1.169

m586, network set to use http

m586
SENDING:M586
HTTP is enabled on port 80
FTP is disabled
TELNET is disabled

When I access the ip address 192.168.1.169 from firefox I get a connection timed out error. I have ethernet and usb connected to my laptop.
What should I try next?

Thanks for any help you can send my way

What is the IP address of your PC? Is it on the same subnet as the Duet? If you are not sure, then if it is a Windows pC, send the ipconfig command from a command prompt, and check that the reported IP address of the PC is 192.168.1.xxx where xxx != 169.

It's usually better to set the IP address of the Duet to 0.0.0.0 which tells the Duet to get an IP address from your router using DHCP. But if you know what you are doing, specifying an explicit IP address (as you are doing) is OK.

Note, the Ethernet port on the Duet does not do auto-crossover.

Thank you David! It was an auto-crossover problem.

I have had a bad SD card issue in both Duet and Raspberry Pi. It's a pain in the butt.
