New firmware bundle 3.2beta2

[Nuramori]

@dc42

I’m not sure what changed, but I went from a well functioning printer (blv cube) to a hot mess of bed crashes and inability to properly probe the bed for leveling using the bltouch. Nothing changed in hardware or config.sys. I was only able to get it working again by fully reverting to 3.1.1. The bed probing did double probes, the movement from probe point to probe point would be erratic with a strange pause and slow movement, and almost always would at the third probe point, return to 0,0 then go back to probing. It would never really finish the bed mesh probe. It would probe the three mount points (independent three z-axis) but wouldn’t adjust the bed level. I nearly wrecked the thing on one probe where it just drove itself into the bed and then slide to the back to home the y axis.

The bltouch is on a toolboard 0.6 if it matters. Yes I had updated the firmware on the toolboard. I have a panel due but that was not updated.

This was a bad release and I am nervous about trying another beta at this point.

I experienced nearly the same thing with a Duet3/RPi and a toolboard. I was only able to resolve it by rolling back to 3.2b1.. but, I spent a bit of time on it again this morning only to realize that rrf hadn't been properly updated. Can you validate yours has been updated? I wasn't able to reproduce the issue you described after running M997 again and validating rrf was properly updated on my Duet 3..

[Nuramori]

I had double checked that it was updated, using M115 and M122 for both the board and tool board. I'm hesitant to try it again, but I can if it will help. I upgraded via "apt update" followed by "apt upgrade.' I have the source.list for the duet repository set to unstable prior to this, and had changed it to stable after reverting.

[oozeBot]

@Nuramori this morning, as a safeguard after rolling forward, I uploaded the 3.2b2 firmware through DWC.. and I haven’t seen the issue again. I don’t think I screwed the upgrade up, but yeah.. I dunno. It was doing all sorts of strange things- G30 would probe once, lift way too high, and fail on the second pass. Or it wouldn’t deploy the probe at all and dive into the bed.. I plan on rolling back and forth a few more times to see if I can recreate it, but I think I must have somehow not properly upgraded the firmware.

[seraser]

Duetwifi, tested fysetc mini 12864 version 1.2 and 2.1 and dont work, only backlight in version 1.2 nothing in version 2.1, rotate encoder and restart in two versions, connected direct exp1 mini to LCD exp and exp2 mini to sd exp.

Tested many M918 configurations but if rotate encoder restart duet is not config related.

Maybe bad pin asignement in firmware?

Thank you.

@GrodanB said in New firmware bundle 3.2beta2:

Why?
And just for my curiosity when does it affect the extrusion?

So that adjusting the extrusion factor doesn't affect the retract or reprime length, or filament loading/unloading. The extrusion factor affects moves with simultaneous XY motion and extrusion.

Ahh, ok I see... This could explain my improved print quality on my start and stops in RRF3.2...

But that makes calibration harder then.

Would it be possible to have some sort of "force/apply compensation" feature to use in the calibration?
(I guess no slicer will use this...) Because I would like to make sure I applied the correct calibration.

My workflow for a new filament is to do this controlled extrusion, check the error, enter the compensation, verify that the compensation is correct... if not start over until correct amount is extruded.

For now I need to either use e-steps (so I can verify but then I guess I get back my start stop issues) or hope that I did not miscalculate and blindly use the value. I think I'll use the value blindly even if I'll risk that not seeing any mistake until the part is done.

@GrodanB said in New firmware bundle 3.2beta2:

The bed temp reaches 85 and when the heater PT element reports 223.8 (reading the documentation this is the expected behaviour that now M701 call is done and M703 shall be run) my printer resets and all temperatures are set to 0 and tool 1 is set to inactive.

If you can reproduce that, please run M122 immediately after the uncommanded reset and post the result here.

Easy to reproduce but M122 seems to do nothing... Or I do something wrong...
But I there is a failure message I previously missed... may be a hint at least.

update... seemed I was to quick... resend M122 gave this:

Is it not an idea to use the Mk1 eyeball while printing a small test piece to allow you to adjust the extrusion factor for that particular material on the fly ?

[T3P3Tony]

@deckingman the work on the can support for mini 5+ did not change the functionality on any of the expansion boards.

I think it should read :

Or perhaps the release notes should say

"Supports Duet 3 Mini version 0.4 prototypes including limited CAN expansion" or "Supports Duet 3 Mini version 0.4 prototypes including CAN expansion (with limitations)." Either statement would be honest IMO.

@Nuramori @dc42 - the homing issues have reappeared this morning on 3.2b2. This is with a Duet3/RPi and a toolboard. Here is the relevant section from my config that has worked without issue until 3.2b2:

G1 X130 Y130 F24000			; aligns BLTouch in center of build plate
...
G30	Z-99999				; sets z-height relative to print bed
M561					; clear any bed transforms
G30 P0 X20 Y150 Z-99999			; probe midway between front and rear belt on left side
G30 P1 X280 Y150 Z-99999 S2		; probe midway between front and rear belt on right side

Now, on 3.2b2, sometimes it only probes once during G30 Z-99999. Sometimes it doesn't probe at all, then moves to the next G30 and fails. Sometimes, it makes it this far, then goes to X0 Y0 and does a probe there? That isn't even in the code..

@dc42 - There is definitely something wrong here. Please tell me how I can assist with testing to provide you better details.. I can also start another thread for the issue.

[Stephen6309]

@dc42 The BLTouch is doing a double tab on homing, like it does on G29 S0. Original BLTouch with a metal pin. It appears to be messing up the G31 offset. I change the offset and nothing changes. Also, when called in a macro: M117 and M118 to http, never displays the message, but it does when being called with M98. I use a macro to set the pla offset.

For emaple, I changed the offset from 2.5 to 2.8, and the first layer thickness never changes.

@TC
Yes, seems like the same assert as I have.

That gives me hope that this is possible to recreate at duet3d.

@dc42 If you need to run special firmware to get extended diagnosis or if there is a logfile or similar please just tell me and I test it for you. So far the failure rate for this is 100%.

Other than this the firmware works rock solid on my Cartesian printer.

Another thing, have looked in the setting up documentation and the M221 G-Code reference page. I find no note of the updated/changed behaviour. I guess this is then a minor "bug report" for the documentation.

[TC]

@GrodanB Yes and I can confirm it is working in 3.2beta1

[Touchthebitum]

Hello
I just updated my firmware and I get this when I want to upload or modify my config.g file :
Operation failed (Reason: Access to the path '/opt/dsf/sd/sys/DuetWiFiServer-1.24beta2.bin' is denied.)
Here is the general info :

DSF Version: 3.2.0-beta2
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 3 MB6HC 3.2-beta2 (2020-10-05b2)
I made update and upgrade on my Raspberry Pi too.
Where am I wrong ?
Thanks

For those of you experiencing an unexpected reboot when M701 or M702 is used, there is a binary for Duet WiFi/Ethernet to fix this at https://www.dropbox.com/s/5vhjjz4a28hu33g/Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin?dl=0.

@dc42
This update has fixed the M701 crashes for me.

Isn't it just a case that at your 'check the error' stage, rather than (say) a G1 E100, you need a G1 X100 E100?
