Solved MPCNC: Duet 3 + SBC + Dual Endstop for X and Y axes.
-
Hello guys,
I have been trying to figure this out from a couple of days. I had Duet 2 Wifi configured correctly with dual x and y axes (https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/19806/mpcnc-and-duet-2-wifi-setup).
I just upgraded to Duet 3. I have 2 motors and 2 endstops for X axes, 2 motors and 2 endstops for y axes, and 1 motor for Z axis.
I have my duet 3 un SBC mode (and latest beta firmware 3.4b) on it. I am able to move axes without homing, so both motors are alligned correctly. I am having trouble with endstop configuration. Can someone take a look at it please?
Essentially, I want
io0.in is used for panel due (which is working perfectly fine as well).
Out of the 5 pins, I have used 2nd (in) and 3rd (ground) pin as per wiring diagram. My endstops are in normally closed and they go in NO when they are triggered.
I am mostly looking for help with M574 and M584 lines. Thank you in advance!My M119 gives below message regardless of the fact that the endstops are pressed or not.

My endstops are in normally closed and they go in NO when they are triggered.
Sorry about the ! suggestions before. I got caught on the NO part and glossed on the normally closed part. I'll blame that I was on my phone at the time.
The fact that M119 isn't showing a status change makes me think the wiring isn't making a connection.

Sine they are NO I think you'll need to invert the signal of those pins by adding a
!in front of the pin names like so: -

Hey, @Phaedrux They are in NC as i said in my post. Do i still put them as !? Eitehr way, in the M119 I dont see both endstop status, and even after triggering them, the status doesn't change in M119.

-
I think your mappings look fine.
Can you send m98 p"config.g" to check for any syntax errors?
Also check your wiring for continuity.
You could also try simplifying and just map a single motor and endatop and test that first
-
m98 p"config.g" gives a green result.
- I recall there used to be led lights on duet 2 WiFi, are there lights on duet 3, do you know?
- I checked for continuity by testing each endstop individually. Each send stop works fine, it shows correct continuity when i engage it. Like i said it was working for with duet 2 WiFi.
- In the status i see a generic message about x end stop, not about x1, x2 endstop. Is there a way to split it?
- I'll try doing one end stop at a time like you said and report back.
-
What does a green result mean? Can you copy and paste the result?
-
-
Yeah there should be a reply like
12/10/2020, 11:52:26 PM M98 P"config.g" HTTP is enabled on port 80 FTP is enabled on port 21 TELNET is disabled Warning: Heater 0 appears to be over-powered. If left on at full power, its temperature is predicted to reach 365C Warning: Heater 1 appears to be over-powered. If left on at full power, its temperature is predicted to reach 463CAnd if there are any syntax errors in config.g they would show there as well.
It looks like you're sending it on mobile, can you use the full web interface and send it from the gcode console window?
Send M122 while you're at it for good measure.

I just tried the same from my macbook and also my windows computer, both gave out exact same output. Just a green message back like the mobile output was. Below is the output for M122:

Ok how bout just sending the M574 command in the console by itself. If there's something wrong with it, it should complain.

That's exactly what i thought. So i checked each wire again (even before this message). I will do a more thorough test again, most likely tomorrow. I mean if one endstop wire was loose it would make sense, how come all four of them are reporting it incorrectly, right? (that too after me checking each one of them for continuity). Is it possible that it is the beta firmware?

I just did that, I got a green message back for that as well.

Are you clicking both endstops when you check M119 or just one?
-

I tried it both ways, but let me double check and try it again. Please gimme 2 minutes, i will run to garage and do this test and report back.

It would also be good to do the more basic setup of single axis and single endstop just to confirm things are working and then add the complexity.
There's also the SBC and Beta being added into the mix.
It might also be worthwhile to temporarily switch over to standalone mode to rule out the SBC being the issue. That would involve getting a new SD card and setting it up with the folder structure for the duet and copying your config files over to the /sys folder. Put the SD card into the duet, disconnect the SBC, plug the ethernet into the duet.
If that still doesn't work, could then upload the 3.1.1 firmware zip file to quickly check if it's a beta firmware issue.
Those are some things to check. For now though I must sleep.
-
Here are the two results.
First one is with both end stops depressed. Second one is with both released.
-
Thank you for the pointers. I will do these steps when I wake up myself. Your help is highly appreciated!
-
We're not crazy right? You have them wired correctly in your screen shot?
Duet 3: connect the switch between the IN and GND pins of your chosen IO_x connector.
