Unsolved Issues with macros halting the printer.

[brunofporto]

@dc42 Please, in order to avoid moving it unnecessarily, is it possible to monitor via telnet or something?

Yes, use the M586 command to enable Telnet.

Next time it appears to be stuck, try sending M292 and see whether that un-freezes it

ok.... It receives the M292 command, confirms it, but the printer still busy doing nothing

Can you send M122 and get a report?

[brunofporto]

@dc42 Sure! Did while "busy" doing nothing after reproducing the issue:

Thanks. I can see two odd things in that report:

http is doing "M291 P"Please wait while the bed and tool is being heated up" R"Please Wait" S1 T0 " in state(s) 0 0

It is still waiting for the M291 message box to be acknowledged, as if it hasn't received M292. So sending M292 should get it running again.

Scheduled moves: 35, completed moves: 36

Doing one more move than was scheduled doesn't sound right. But I don't think this is part of the problem you are seeing.

I'll review the M292 handling and see if there is any way that a M292 command might be missed.

@dc42 Thanks!

I am not sure when this issues started (I think it is with this latest 2.02 series of betas and RCs) but I did not have them before with the same macros.

For now I'll just comment all non critical M291 from these macros

[brunofporto]

@dc42 Same issue with RC5 - not using M291 S0 T0, swapped all of them to S1. The first M291 S1 message does not even appear.

If it doesn't appear, no wonder it gets stuck! It's waiting for the M292 command to be returned from DWC to tell it that you have acknowledged the message box. I can't think why it wouldn't appear, other than a network issue. Does your system have a PanelDue, and if so does the message box appear on it?

[brunofporto]

@dc42 Yes I have a PanelDue. No... it does not appear there even when the macro is executed from PanelDue.

Same behavior as DWC: Right after resetting the macro works (it halts at the end of the macro but works until that). But If I execute anything before it (like a G32) it does halt after the first M291 S3 as Busy and does nothing.
