      Hello everyone,

      My Duet 6HC board doesen't want to connect to an SBC anymore. I've tried to connect it to a Pi 3B and a Pi 4.
      The Duet, the Pi 3B and my self-made printer were working fine for a while now, so I've decided to add Obico to my printer:
      https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/33382/reprapfirmware-obico?_=1710320648604
      To do so, I've installed the most recent beta release on a Pi 4 (as an additional upgrade for the printer). Everything went fine, the DWC was running on the SBC and Obico was working too, so I've connected the Pi 4 to the 6HC and uploaded the new config.zip from RRF Config Tool (V3.5). This config.zip also contained firmware files, which were installed while uploading the config.
      Everything was still running untill the next reboot of the SBC and the Duet 6HC.

      Now im getting this from journalctl on the SBC:

      No matter which SBC I am using, there is alwas the same connection problem. I've allready tried a new ribbon cable and a clean image on the SD card.
      It is still possible to connect the Duet by YAT, the status LED is flashing steady. Here is what I'm getting from M115 and M122:

      What could be the problem and what can be done now? I hope you can help me with this.

          @StanRyab Your SBC/Duet are not on the latest beta, they're on 3.4.6/3.4.5 respectively. You may want to try out this SBC image instead: https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/34825/new-experimental-duetpi-bookworm-builds-available?_=1710407281118 Also try to flash this firmware build instead: https://github.com/Duet3D/RepRapFirmware/releases/download/3.5.0-rc.3/Duet3Firmware_MB6HC.bin See docs.duet3d.com -> Updating firmware for further info.

          What was the reason you generated and installed a new config bundle? If it contained firmware files, it was probably generated for a Duet running in standalone mode. Config bundles for SBC mode should never contain firmware update files since they are managed by the apt package management.

          Nevertheless, I'll check again what firmware builds the config tool outputs.

            @chrishamm thank you for the reply, and sorry for the confusion. The journalctl log is from the Pi3B which is still on 3.4.6.
            Here is the log fom the Pi4 which is already on 3.5.0-rc.3, but im'm getting the same error:

            I generated and installed a new config bundle to use a CNC spindle. The firmware file was a included (and probably insatlled) by mistake, I was inattentive.

            I will try to update the firmware. Since the Duet is still in SBC mode according to YAT and there is no connection between the Duet and the SBC, do I have to use Fallback procedure #1 with the firmware file from the link above for updating it?

              @StanRyab I'd recommend fallback procedure #2 since you're in SBC mode: https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/RepRapFirmware/Updating_firmware#all-other-duet-boards

                @chrishamm updating by fallback procedure #2 went fine I gues. there is still the same error, no connection between the Pi4 and the Duet. I've tried the old SBC image and the new one. Tried it with the Pi3B and the Pi4.
                This is what I get from YAT:

                Is there any chance to fix it or should I replace the board?
