Connecting multiple duets to one SBC

benecito

@chrishamm Will report back after some experimenting, or when running into some issues

@chrishamm
I just figured out the wiring but can't start a second DCS instance.

I duplicated /opt/dsf/ in /opt/dsf2/ to keep things separate but also tried the config2.json. As neither of them worked I also tried to start the first (regular) DCS instance with

sudo systemctl start duetcontrolserver -c /opt/dsf/conf/config.json

but it returns:

systemctl: invalid option -- 'c'

Are you sure this works, or do I need to duplicate something else as well?

I managed to start one instance on spi4, but figured spi1 und 4 don't work together - will need to search for an alternate wiring scheme I guess...

benecito

@chrishamm
Managed to rewire to spi3 and have spi0 and spi3 running at the same time now. So just need to figure out how to start the second DCS

chrishamm

@benecito You need to duplicate the service file and edit it (/usr/lib/systemd/system/duetcontrolserver.service) to start with a different config. Same applies to the duetwebserver service.

benecito

@chrishamm all right - duplicated both of them. Do I need to edit anything but line 6?

@benecito It won't work that way, because DCS defaults to /opt/dsf/conf/config.json. Use

ExecStart=/opt/dsf/bin/DuetControlServer -c /opt/dsf2/conf/config.json

instead. There is no need to copy the entire dsf directory but just conf and sd in it, although it should work nevertheless. You'll need to edit the second duetwebserver service in a similar way, too.

benecito

@chrishamm unfortunately it still does not work for me...
Also can't really find anything helpful in there.

@benecito That log doesn't show quite a lot. Please run journalctl -u duetcontrolserver2 -ef and post the bit that keeps repeating. It may be a good idea to share your second config file as well (config2.json).

benecito

@chrishamm Sorry for the delay - was out of office yesterday.

I figured one part out: I messed up the SPI addresses in the config file

chrishamm

@benecito Are you certain that /dev/spidev4.0 exists? Perhaps you need /dev/spidev3.0 instead.

It looks like the --urls parameter doesn't work as documented, I just checked this. You need to change the second service file to something like ExecStart=ASPNETCORE_URLS="http://*:8080" /opt/dsf/bin/DuetWebServer --SocketPath /run/dsf/dcs2.sock. Also, it looks like the Kestrel section in /opt/dsf/conf/http.json overrides the ASPNETCORE_URLS setting. I suggest you remove that section in that file and change duetwebserver.service (preferably after copying it to /etc/systemd/system first to avoid issues on upgrade) to ExecStart=ASPNETCORE_URLS="http://*:80" /opt/dsf/bin/DuetWebServer instead.

benecito

@chrishamm this throws

May 05 11:20:26 CR-3D-Server systemd[1]: /lib/systemd/system/duetwebserver2.service:8: Neither a valid executable name nor an absolute path: ASPNETCORE_URLS=http://*:8080

chrishamm

@benecito Sorry, systemd requires a different format for environment variables:

Environment=ASPNETCORE_URLS="http://*:8080"
ExecStart=/opt/dsf/bin/DuetWebServer --SocketPath /run/dsf/dcs2.sock

benecito

@chrishamm
Hey,
finally managed to get to it again and without printers connected it is working right now.
Now just need to sort things in my head and make sure it also works fine with two machines actually printing at the same time.

You mentioned I should copy some files to be safe in case of an update here:

@chrishamm said in Connecting multiple duets to one SBC:

Also, it looks like the Kestrel section in /opt/dsf/conf/http.json overrides the ASPNETCORE_URLS setting. I suggest you remove that section in that file and change duetwebserver.service (preferably after copying it to /etc/systemd/system first to avoid issues on upgrade) to ExecStart=ASPNETCORE_URLS="http://*:80" /opt/dsf/bin/DuetWebServer instead.

Can you please point out again which files you would recommend to copy where?
Over all I created:
/etc/systemd/system/duetcontrolserver2.service
/etc/systemd/system/duetwebserver2.service
/opt/dsf/sd2/ (as a duplicate of /opt/dsf/sd/)
/opt/dsf/conf/config2 .json (as a mostly duplicate of /opt/dsf/conf/config.json)

and edited:
/opt/dsf/conf/config.json
/opt/dsf/conf/http.json
/etc/systemd/system/duetwebserver.service

I assume the ones I edited but did not duplicate should be duplicated as well?

chrishamm

@benecito That structure sounds reasonable to me. The service files come from /usr/share/systemd/system AFAIR.

benecito

@chrishamm quick update (and question)
We finally finished the test setup with actual printers connected. Unfortunately on pretty much any print one of the looses it's connection with a "Waiting for transfer ready pin" message.
Right now the wires are about 25cm long but well away from any other cables. We're trying to rearrange the setup to be able to use shorter cables but not sure if that's actually the issue.

Can it be somehow related to two SPI connections running at quite a bit of throughput on the same pi and thus some timing errors or so happening? In all cases the connection is back less than a second after.
Happy to hear any thoughts and maybe still get them running reliably!

benecito

@chrishamm Any thoughts on this?
We now tried to run the Duets over SBC but print over USB. This went well so far but haven't run any long term tests.
Therefore to me it sounds like a timing issue related to the transfer ready pin with the increased throughput of printing over SBC.
Can you confirm if the USB print does not go trough the SBC connection back and forth?

Still we would prefer to also print over SBC as we would have the whole ObjectModel available here.

chrishamm

@benecito Hard to say. Do you get any TfrRdy glitches in the M122 diagnostics? If yes, there is probably noise on the TfrRdy line causing the culprit. Try shielding the transfer cables and see if that makes a difference. If that doesn't work, consider trying out a different GPIO pin on the Pi side, perhaps even from a different gpiochip device if possible.

benecito

@chrishamm now I was able to reproduce this. It might be a little different this time as DWC showed as disconnected at first but then eventually came back to life.
