Error: attempting to extrude with no tool selected
-
@theshabobo Ahh so it's changed from being something specific the S3D as per your first post, to being slicer agnostic. I'll take a look at the files later is I get chance. Meanwhile are you setting the slicer output "flavour" to RepRap" ?
EDIT - I've had a quick gander at the gcode file and none of the bad commands that are being reported exist in the file itself. There is only one "T" command which is "T0" at the beginning of the file - exactly as it should be. So my take on that is that the file data is somehow being corrupted as it is being read from the card. I have no idea why that should be. So it's over to someone more knowledgable that I. You could try disconnecting the PanelDue - at least that would narrow it down a bit.
-
If it is data corruption to/from the SD card, one way to check if the SD card has an issue is to download the gcode file from the SD card using DWC and compare it to the original file that was uploaded.
-
@deckingman Yes, it is RepRap. I disconnected the Paneldue and was able to do a 2.5 hour print with no issues and no Bad commands appearing in the logs.
I will be changing the PanelDue cable to a shielded one later today (after work) and trying again.
@T3P3Tony I don't believe it is an SD card issue, or file corruption issue as I tried with a new card and new file. I also verified the files are proper when compared to eachother.

@theshabobo hello, sorry for asking directly
did you solved it? i also have this problem, i change to stp lan cable and this problem still happened.
any tips ? -
@dc42 said in Error: attempting to extrude with no tool selected:
must be no more than 0.1 ohms per conductor
hello, sorry for asking. i am not electronic guy so i alittle bit blank with 0.1ohms per conductor. what this means
i check i use stp lan cable to do it and i check in the internet it is have resistence about 150ohms i cannot use this cable?
-
@lifeform That would be measured with a multimeter.

@theshabobo @Phaedrux @deckingman I'm having the exact same issue as described here. Same garbage commands, and tool being de-selected.
Current firmware versions:
Board: Duet WiFi 1.02 or later + DueX5
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet 3.2.2 (2021-02-11)
Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.23Has there been any other instances of this? I am using prusaslic3r and was not having this issue before the upgrade to RRF V3, which I performed a few days ago.
I am using a 4 pin paneldue cable. There is only one small section where it is near a stepper motor (probably 5mm cross section) and the rest of the cable is in an aluminum extrusion, so it should be shielded.
There may be interference somewhere, but I think that would have shown up before the upgrade to RRF V3
Baud rate for PanelDue is 57600

V3 definitely seems more sensitive to interference. You can try lowering the baud rate to make it more tolerant.
What paneldue firmware version are you using?
@Surgikill said in Error: attempting to extrude with no tool selected:
Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.23
Unrelated, but the wifi version for 3.2.2 is 1.25.
-
@Phaedrux Paneldue firmware is 3.2.11
I'll look into updating wifi server. I thought that all was updated with the combined firmware when I updated to 3.2.2.
-
@Phaedrux Looks like the baud rate change might have fixed it. Any recommendations on wire? I want to re-wire some of my stepper motors with shielded wire to cut down on interference, can't seem to find any good wire.
-
Any decent gauge wire should do. I like to do a braid or twist which seems to help with crosstalk without shielding. I hear people mention silicone wire as nice to work with. I've only ever used some cheap spools of 22 gauge wire on amazon for low current DC applications. Nothing special. And for AC wiring some larger gauge stuff from the local auto parts store.
-
@Phaedrux Well I lied, still getting communication issues. I replaced the SD card with a brand new one, and I moved the stepper motor wire that was near the paneldue wire so there is 4+ inches of separation. The only other wire near it is a mechanical endstop switch. Any other ideas? The paneldue does not have a SD card in it.
-
How long is the wire run?
-
@Phaedrux The 4 pin wire is 1000mm long. I bought it from filastruder, who also offers a 3000mm cable, so I figured the 1000mm cable would be fine.

-
@Surgikill Yeah that should be within spec.
I'll try and find out what was ever determined the last time this was reported. It's been found a few times but I don't think there was ever a definitive cause for why it becomes apparent in RRF3.
Can you measure the resistance of the wires in the cable?
-
@Phaedrux Thanks. I'm still going to rewire this just to tidy it up. Maybe it will help.
-
@Surgikill "The length of the 4-way cable is not critical, however the resistance per conductor should not exceed 0.1 ohm. "
-
@Phaedrux I can measure it and see. Definitely still having issues with my tool being de-selected.
-
@Phaedrux Well, the ground wire read 0.2, but the resolution on my multimeter is only 0.1, so not sure how accurate it is. Length is less than the 1000mm, it's only about 750mm.
Any way I can mitigate this until we find the issue? I can't get a print completed.

This may be inconvenient but could try disable or disconnect the paneldue. What version of PanelDue is it? What PCB version of Duet?
