Firmware 2.02 released!
-
@leonmf I replied on that thread -- hope that helps you, dual (or more ) z homing works fine in RC5 -- I believe there are some transient issues in 2.02 final -- possibly started with RC7 -- I notice that after a long period of on time there is some issue that builds up which results in a few other oddities, @dc42 -- i.e I noticed a slow down behavior between moves -- for example it moves, then thinks then moves again, the move is not slow (I've see that before), but it thinks a good bit before the next move -- in that state is when it starts to lose end stop triggers.
-
David, I am running rc5 and after over 20 hours of printing, no issues with end stops, it's a 30 hour print, but I just checked the diagnostic page while it's printing and checked the end stops on the duex5 and they work fine. Definitely there was an issue with the new firmware and duex5 end stops.
-
I think the U Axis homing I'm seeing is not 2.02 final specific (even though I believe it to be a real bug).
I'm also seeing a new thing in 2.02 where the first move of any axis after homing any axis is exceptionally slow and ignores the FXXXX parameter. Subsequent moves are fine, though.

That sort of slow down is usually the result of I2C communication between the Duet and the DueX breaking down. Please check the I2C stats in the M122 report when this happens. The usual cause is a poor ground connection between the VIN terminal blocks of the Duet and the DueX.

If/when this happens again, after the print finishes please check:
- The I2C stats in the M122 report
- If you have any fans connected to the DueX then test whether they are still working.

@dc42 David, this never happens with rc5, how can it be hardware/wiring related. I'm running rc5 now and haven't had it happen in over 100 hours of printing.

Whatever the reason for the problem, I need the results of the tests I requested, to determine whether the I2C comms have stopped working or just the endstops on the DueX5.

@dc42 I have a long print project to complete, so I won't be able to roll back to 2.02 final until after it's done. I am in hour 10 of a 2nd 30 hour print, then I have 3 12 hour parts to print out. I can test it on a benchy this weekend -- it is absolutely repeatable after 4+ hours of printing. BTW when it happened I did electrical testing the duet and duex5 -- I tested the 5v, 3.3v and 24v rails for any variants -- and everything was copacetic, my first thought it was wiring related, but everything checked out fine, and since a rollback to rc5 fixed it, I'm sure it's not.
BTW, i have 2 fans blowing across the duet and they're working fine -- duet MCU reports 25-26c even during 20+ hour long print jobs

Just wanted to say the new firmware is working fine on my Hypercube Evolution. Only problem I found was that I had to make changes to my config.g to get it to work after upgrading. 2.01 I believe was my old firmware. Now with 2.02 I had to make these changes to config.g to get it to work.
Old settings:
; Axis Limits
M208 X0 Y0 Z0:0 U0 S1 ; Set axis minimumM208 X285 Y270 Z285:285 U285 S0 ; Set axis max
New Settings:
; Axis Limits
M208 X0 Y0 Z0 S1 ; Set axis minimumM208 X285 Y270 Z285 S0 ; Set axis max
What would happen is it would set my Z axis Min and Max to 285mm with the old settings. This would always move the bed to the furthest position from the head and start printing in air. Not on the bed. Those old settings worked fine in the old version but mess things up bad in the latest firmware. Spent about 10 hours trying to figure out this problem.
Hope this is of some help to others that may have problems with Z axis moving strange after upgrading.
-
I'm glad you got it working. The reason you had problems was that firmware 2.01 ignored the second Z value in your M208 command, whereas firmware 2.02 allows you to use e.g. M208 X0:200 Y-10:200 Z0:250 instead of using separate M208 S0 and M208 S1 commands.

Hi all, been using Duet3D for my CoreXY since the middle of last year or so.
Since 2.02 I've been unable to home the axes correctly. I use stepper resistance to home the X/Y and a BLTouch to home Z (I assume this is probably still working)
After updating to 2.02 I got a message when I try to home about insufficient axes being homed - did some reading and saw I needed to add
M564 H0
to allow movement before the axes were homed, so I did that, but now the print head just smashes into the 0 position and tries to keep going instead of determining that's the home position and proceeding with the rest of the home position.I've placed my config and home gcode files at this location.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
-
@mveinot First of all I would not recommend the use of
M564 H0
. This opens up a possibility for bad things IMHO. You should always adapt your homing macros as a better solution (and home before any movement).I was looking at your
homex.g
(andhomey.g
) and at least they should not create this error message. Maybe yourhomeall.g
does. Only thing that I found a little strange in yourhomex.g
is that you go to home, go toX=5
and at the end set this position to be 0 viaG92 X0
. This might be totally correct for your setup but I find it quite strange. (I also find you regular acceleration values of 15,000mm/s² strange but again this might be totally fine for your machine)Anyway, regarding the stallGuard-based homing I sadly cannot really help since I don't use it. The only thing I can think of is that something changed (mechanically, inside firmware) and your previous stallGuard settings just don't work anymore, i.e. it does not detect the stall.
-
@wilriker Thanks for the insights. The reason I set the x=5 offset is that the x/y carriage bumps into part of the printer frame if I don't move it in a bit on that axis.
Even trying to home each axis individually I was still getting that error (insufficient axes homed)
My homeall.g just calls each of the individual homing files in sequence, it doesn't do anything special.
-
@mveinot Oh wait, you have
M452
in yourconfig.g
. This sets your printer into Laser mode. In this case it is mandatory to change all yourG1 Snnn
intoG1 Hnnn
. This is because in 2.02 when the printer is set to laser mode theSnnn
parameter ofG1
controls the laser power!From the documentation of
M452
Very important! If you use M452 to put your machine into Laser mode and are running Firmware 2.02 or above, you must replace all S parameters in G0/G1 commands in homing files etc. by H parameters. This is because S is now used to control laser power.
-
@wilriker Darnit! I forgot all about having that in there. Yep, that did it. Thank you so much.
-
@mveinot, you can avoid the move to X5 and G92 X0 if you change the M208 lower X limit from 0 to -5.
-
@dc42 Thanks, I've made that change as well. Seems to work!

Hi Guys,
I hope you can help me out.
I have updated to latest FW2.02 and DWC2.0.0-RC3 and at first it looked great.
But since the update I can't home my axes, any of it. I tried to modify the home files, f.e. homex.g with very slow movement but that didn't help.I allways receive the error G0/G1:insufficient axes homed
I checked the switch states again and they work fine.
It seems like S1 is ignored...

@hornetrider Can you post your other homing files? Homex looks correct.
-
thanks for the quick reply.
The homeall.g looks similar to the homex.g as it was generated with the RepRapFirmware Config Tool.
It uses the same controls just for all axes and including the G30 for the Z Probing.The strange thing is, before the FW update (done 02.01.19) the homing worked fine...
Also
G1 S1 X-215 F1800
G1 X6 F6000 ; go back a few mm
work fine as the X-Axe goes back the distance after hitting the first time the switch....But at the end of the script the error message appears.
