Not connecting with Blue and red lights displayed
-
Ok, so this is my 2nd Duet 2 wifi main board installed on another printer of mine. I thought this one was going to be a breeze but for some reason I'm unable to get my computer to connect and no matter how I configure the config.g file for network connectivity the blue and red lights are on solid. Am I missing something or is there a step I need to take prior?
Thanking you in advance
Eric

Do you mean the blue VIN LED is solid, or the blue LED on the WiFi module? Is the green 3.3V LED lit?
-
Maybe in mistaken. Maybe it is green and red and not blue. The lights are not part of the wifi module but the LED lights to the right of it. Maybe the lights have no significance to my problem but I am unable to get connect via VAT, network or paneldue

If you are unable to tell what colour the LEDs are, can you post a photo of the end of the Duet with the LEDs when it is powered?
-
I will post a photo in 30 minutes or so when I get home. I thought they were blue and red but when you mentioned the blue light by the wifi module I second guessed myself.

Blue and red are the colors posted

Looks like the green LED labelled "3.3V" is not lit. Can you confirm that? If so, turn the power off, disconnect the endstops from the Duet and try again.

Correct, no green light. I will try that tonight when I get home. Thank you

@dc42 I disconnected the endstops and sure enough all the boards lights were on and I quickly ran command M587 S and P and then M552 S1.... working! Thank you @dc42
Now, the question is how do I connect the endstops correctly?
EDIT: I am working with a 2 pin endstop on the Y axis and had it plugged into the first 2 pins. Will I be able to use a 2 wire endstop?

I think you'll need to use the two outer pins.
