@chrishamm omg ... really? the hard way?

[chrishamm]

@CrazyCreator I don't know why your update failed (DCS stopped in the background for some reason?) but yes, with an invalid firmware image you need to use bossa. It's already preinstalled on the SBC, too.

@chrishamm
Unfortunately, I can't find how to flash the firmware from the Pi onto the board. Can access the Pi via VNC...

And next strange problem. In the Docu is writing:
Erase the firmware on the Duet by either:
Pressing the Erase button (next to the reset button on older Duets); or Jumpering the erase jumper
Remove the erase jumper once the Diag LED lights up.

But i can't find this Pins for jumper it.

Maybe this is the reason for this:

But what's much stranger is that when I connect the board to the USB on the PC, nothing happens.

Neither on the Mac nor on the Windows PC... The board does not appear.
Do I have to disconnect all cables (Motor, Endstops, heater etc) beforehand and only the USB cable can be plugged in?
All other cables are of course without power, the main switch of the printer is turned off.

@CrazyCreator I expect the firmware flash got part way through and failed. Using the erase jumper should get it back to a state where it will be recognised and firmware can be flashed via USB. This can be done from the Raspberry Pi, usually by sending the command:

~/BOSSA/bin/bossac -e -w -v -b /opt/dsf/sd/firmware/Duet3Firmware_MB6HC.bin

Erase jumper is here:

@droftarts Mhhhh ... Thanks all for the helping, but i don't have a erase jumper

@CrazyCreator looks like a cloned board. best ask Fysetc...

[CrazyCreator]

@jay_s_uk The board came with the printer... No idea if it's a clone or not. But the clones are also made according to the specifications, aren't they?

[jay_s_uk]

@CrazyCreator well its black, so its a clone.
And I know some Fysetc "clones" don't 100% match duet boards

[CrazyCreator]

@jay_s_uk
What kind of rubbish is that?
Well then I'll try to bridge the two pins.
If the board wears out, then at least an original one comes in

btw
Here is a picture of a board from Filafarm (official seller in Germany), there is no erase jumper at this position. However, that is a 0.6 board in the picture.

Here you are:

@infiniteloop

I know... I saw that.
I just wanted to show that there are also duet boards where the jumper is in a different place. So it's quite possible that this is the case on my board too.

@CrazyCreator clones are based on the v1, not the 0.6

[CrazyCreator]

@jay_s_uk
But ... My Erase Button is on Position from v0.6 and on the Board itself is writing v1.01 ... it's a little bit funnny

Yup, it’s stuff like that that means we don’t support clones. And they don’t pay us to. Or make it easy for their customers to get support.
