LIS3D using SPI issues

[wayneosdias]

@dc42
SPI success! Before unwinding everything, I took another look at the git repo and spotted LISAccelerometer.cpp had been updated after my other file update. I updated that file and everything compiles for LIS3D on SPI.

Ill mark this question as solved once I confirm HW function. I have the chip carrier for the SAME5 on order but probably won't rec for a couple weeks. I may just order the PCB regardless as I need the machine back up and running and the accelerometer no critical for its fxn.

@dc42
I got the custom main FW running on the custom PCB and Looks like the lis3d chip is chatting w the mcu via spi. How do I bench test the lis3 functioning? I briefly tried the DWC input shaper plugin, but it complains about the machine not being homed. There are no kinematics/limits hooked up at the moment I just want to confirm on the bench the HW/FW are really working. How do I go about this?

Thanks for any help guys

@wayneosdias you can use M955 to configure the accelerometer orientation and M956 to take readings.

[oliof]

@wayneosdias you can set axes to homed with G92 as well

[gloomyandy]

@wayneosdias Once you have a set of readings (saved to a file) you can open that file to check the data. You would normally expect to see X and Y reading around 0 and Z reading around 1 (assuming you have the orientation set correctly and the board is level).

hmm doesn't appear to be working. I am able to set the command and create the .csv file, but the file stays empty;

Here is the config setup

M955 P50.0 I20
;M955 P50.0 C"spi.cs1+spi.cs0" I10 ; configure accelerometer on exp using SPI pins and specify orientation 

Again, this is custom FW on custom HW. I'm fairly confident in the HW. Not so confident in my FW config.
I have set things for;

• x3 dumb drivers; all 3 step signals working but dir on driver2 not working, HW correctly ohms out
• x2 outs; all work
• x2 io inputs; appear functional but not working as expected. Input changes are not reflected in the OM. I'm sure the HW is wired correctly as setting them as pullup via config '^' pulls them to vddd otherwise, they float.
• x1 spi for LIS3. under review

Here the FW config

@wayneosdias I don't think SPI-connected accelerometers on expansion boards have ever been tested in Duet3Expansion, so there may well be a bug in the firmware. The accelerometers on Duet 3 expansion board use I2C. BTW we have switched from the LIS3DH to the LIS2DW in more recent boards, however we will continue to support the LIS3DH.

[wayneosdias]

@dc42
Ok, thanks for the info. I'll give testing on the bread board a go now that I have that working. I have 2 diff BOBs that both supposedly support i2C and SPI. I only chose spi on personal preference. If it becomes too difficult to implement Ill revert back i2C.

Thank you

[dc42]

@wayneosdias we support SPI accelerometers on the Duet 3 Mini main board using the same MCU family, so it should be possible to make them work on expansion boards. We know that SPI is working because the LIS3DH is found.

[wayneosdias]

@dc42

I still not getting any data in the accelerometer files. But Im pretty confident in the sam to lis3 spi comm. Heres some screen grabs of the comm. Im not familiar with accelerometers or this chip so I need to review. One thing I do notice is INT1 is staying high. I would assume this should be cleared once the sam reads the data.

Anyrate heres what I'm seeing;

Boot, post pwr reset of the 6HC and 1HCL;

Get data

compressed

expanded

Once I do the M956 command, I am unable to repeat the command;

[wayneosdias]

@dc42 @gloomyandy @oliof

I got it sorted :). I was suspecting the INT pin irq was not getting called because both of my newly declared io0 and io1 pins aren't getting flagged in OM. I tried setting other gpio as inputs and the first pin I found that the OM would flag I set to the LIS3 INT1 and now everything works;

/** Doesnt work **//
//constexpr Pin Lis3dhInt1Pin = PortAPin(12);
//{ TcOutput::none,	TccOutput::tcc1_2F,	AdcInput::none,		SercomIo::none,		sercom2cPad0,		4,	nullptr 	}, // PA12

/** Works! **//
constexpr Pin Lis3dhInt1Pin = PortBPin(3);	
{ TcOutput::none,	TccOutput::none,	AdcInput::adc0_15,	SercomIo::sercom5d,	SercomIo::none,		3,	nullptr		},// PB03

The proof

Now I just have to sort out what is going in the config.h, with none of my inputs working as I initally set. All the outputs work fine.

Any rate pleased to announce Duet3Exp SPI works Thanks for the help guys!

[dc42]

@wayneosdias I'm glad you u got it working.

Looking at your pin table again I see that several of the pins you remapped have the wrong Exint number. Each pin can only use a certain Exint number, which is in most cases the number of the pin within the port modulo 16. See the datasheet for details. Each pin used as an input (io_in or tacho input) needs an Exint number. Only one pin can use each Exint number. For example, PA0 PA16 and PB0 can all only use Exint 0 but it can only be assigned to one of them in the pin table, because the Exint function can only be enabled on one of them at a time.

[wayneosdias]

@dc42 Ah ok, I thought any digital input simply had to be assigned a unique 0-15 Exint. Makes sense now. Ill review the DS and see if I can sort it out.

Thanks for the help
