6XD + SD card reader

@tecno The wiring looks to be correct, assuming that the orientation of the ribbon cable at the other end, where it connects to the Duet, is the same as your first cable. Maybe post a picture of that end? Otherwise, yes, it's probably what @dc42 suggests, ie put a jumper on the 'PanelDue/External SD card detect over ride' pins on the Duet, just below the PanelDue connector.
You probably could have connected the 7th ribbon cable wire ('PD_SD_CD') to the second pin down on the back of the socket, to have the card detect signal:

@tecno Great! I'll add a section for external card readers to the PanelDue page on the wiki, now you've proved it works. MicroSD card readers are wired slightly differently, as the pinout is different.

Good we got it sorted out. Now I have installed a new router that is up and running so soon I will get this macine on LAN as well.
Will need to add 2 external USB ports, where can I plugin the second USB on either 6XD or 7i if possible.
OpenPnP will be run over USB to controll the macine and I would like to have anoter USB port for memory stick.Cheers

@tecno I don't quite understand what you want to do. You can't plug in a USB memory stick into a Duet. The USB on a Duet board can only be used for serial communication.

@droftarts
OKAssume same goes for 7i as regards USB?

@tecno the 6HC and 6XD have only one USB port and OpenPNP expects it to be in device mode. So connecting a USB stick to the Duet will not be possible. Why do you want to connect a USB stick to the Duet instead of to the Pi ?

@dc42

Just having all ports at my disposal.No Pi here

Now the tedious work to get config edited and I/Os wired, assuming I am going to stumble on sopme issues, so questions may arise.Cheers
