No Step/Dir Signal from Duet 3 Expansion 1XD

Would that look something like this,
M950 H2 C"out1" + "out2" T1 ; create nozzle heater output on out1 and out2 then map it to sensor 1

@jered it would be:

M950 H2 C"out1+out2" T1

Thank You.

I am currently waiting on a new 1xd board, however, the z does look like it will move just fine.

Just curious, do these topics get closed out? If I have a new issue, should I start a new post? As you guys have solved my original issue for this post.

Click on the Topic Tools icon (the little gear) and select "ask as question". Then click on it again and select "mark as solved".

Usually best to start a new topic for new issues.

Hey guys,
I got the new board, the one that was warrantied and it still doesn't work. Here is a vid that I made. Maybe it will help.

1XD still not working

Sorry to hear that. Just to confirm, you've connected the replacement board directly to the mainboard and it still doesn't register? Just to rule out the canbus daisy chain.

Just in case, can you confirm you're following the commissioning steps here: https://docs.duet3d.com/en/Duet3D_hardware/Duet_3_family/Duet_3_Expansion_1XD#commissioning

If still no success, please email warranty@duet.com again and we will replace it once more.

So, this is strange. I went out to double check the things you mentioned, and I just turned on the machine to see the status of the lights and it was blinking! I have no idea why it decided to work. So, I updated the firmware and gave it a new address and it is, so far, still working!

I hope it continues to work. Not sure why it didn't work initially.

@jered please run M122 B# where # is the CAN address of that board, to see what bootloader version it reports. If it's less than 2.4, please update the bootloader, see https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/RepRapFirmware/Updating_bootloader.

Jered

I updated the firmware, it matches all the other boards and I have gave it an address of 44.

However, I encounter the problem again! The board only had the 5v light on, but I solved the problem. See video below. Hope this might help others as well.

Problem Solved

Thanks for the update. Intermittent crimp problems are hard to pin down.

Thanks again guys for your help! Here is a vid so you can see a bit more of what I am doing.

Multi Filament Vcore 3

Sweet. I like your print head. I've been working on a 6 input, multi material, hot end for quite a while and it's just about there now. Mine is a bit different to yours in that as well as printing multiple materials, I can also mix filaments if they have the same or similar temperature requirements (i.e. mix blue and yellow to produce green), and it's liquid cooled. But that makes it hellishly complicated and not something that anyone would want to buy - so it's a one off for my own use.

I'm afraid that I've my machine beats yours in stepper motor count though - I have 13 (XYZUVA and B axes plus 6 extruders)

@phaedrux
Nice, sounds pretty cool! I would love to see it!
