RepRapFirmware 3.0 first official beta is out

@kraegar said in RepRapFirmware 3.0 first official beta is out:

Heater faulted this time, print shows 100%, but it still moving as if printing.

IMHO "heater faulted" is a bit misleading since it has a specific meaning usually. Maybe something more descriptive like "heaters turned off" would be better.

=== Move ===
Hiccups: 366674, FreeDm: 354, MinFreeDm: 285, MaxWait: 354199ms

Not sure if that's the cause for the problem but this section does not look good either way.

EDIT: the hiccups might be a result of the extruder drive not being moved because of too low temp.

That shouldn't cause hiccups. A hiccup is a deliberate delay introduced by the step pulse generator when it finds that it can't keep up with step rate demanded. They typically happen when microstepping is set too high.

@kraegar thanks for persevering. I note that you are showing :

=== Duet Control Server ===

Duet Control Server v1.0.3.1

in your M122, even though earlier you reported 1.0.3.3 as installed. can you try a restart and confirm that you are now using 1.0.3.3

I am not 100% sure this is fixed in 1.0.3.3 but it should be better

kraegar

I have seen two failure scenarios.

It says heater 0 faulted, temps all drop, % complete goes to 100% and it keeps on moving in x/y/z through the gcode file. I can't cancel the print, even though it's still chugging along
It just stops entirely. Also reports 100% complete.

@T3P3Tony - good catch. It's interesting, yes I have only 1.0.3.3 installed now according to apt list, but it reports back as running 1.0.3.1. This was after multiple full reboots since I'd pulled 1.0.3.3. It must not have updated right when I switched repo's. I uninstalled it (sudo apt-get remove duetsoftwareframework; sudo apt autoremove ), rebooted for good measure, then pulled a fresh copy. M122 now reports the correct version that matches the CLI.

T3P3Tony

@kraegar ok, at least some of those issues are supposed to be fixed in 1.0.3.3 so please try again!

kraegar

Yep, already starting a print!

Sorry, if I'd noticed M122 had a different version earlier I wouldn't have bothered till that was fixed!

(It may be worth investigating how your updates work, since the CLI showed a later version than what was running, something didn't get overwritten properly)

T3P3Tony

@kraegar yes - i think we need to force stop the service before the update runs

kraegar

Is it possibly to query against the duet services from the CLI now? A diag script to list versions, compare the running version against the installed version, etc would be trivial, and handy if so. I'm sure more could be added to it over time, too.

maybe the link in this post has some inspiration; not been updated to reflect the new repository however https://github.com/chrishamm/DuetSoftwareFramework/issues/31#issuecomment-513701442

if you meant to run g-code from the console you might want to look at this (CodeConsole is very unpolished)

pi@duet3:/opt/dsf/bin $ sudo ./CodeConsole
Connected!
M115
FIRMWARE_NAME: RepRapFirmware for Duet 3 ...
pi@duet3:/opt/dsf/bin $

beikeland created this issue in chrishamm/DuetSoftwareFramework

closed M115 does not work on serial/USB #31

T3P3Tony

@kraegar you can see what services are running in the normal linux way. but not what firmware is on the duet w/o writing a plugin for DSF (or as @bearer says use codeconsole)

kraegar

@T3P3Tony Yeah, I meant querying the duet itself. I'll take a look at codeconsole, and the other threads. Sounds like there's been some good work done already, so I probably won't muddy the waters.

kraegar

Longest completed duet3 print @ 3h 5m without issue now that I'm running the latest software. I'll keep on testing!

I have problems with the thermistors on this build on my Duet2Wifi. T0,T1 and Bed shows -273 °C. The thermistors on the duex5 are fine. They are defines as:

; Thermal Sensors
M308 S0 P"bed_temp" Y"thermistor" T100000 B3950 R4700                    	; Set thermistor + ADC parameters for heater 0

I NEED HELP MY SD CARD CRASHED. HOW DO I START WITH A BLANK SD CARD.

@tdybare69 said in RepRapFirmware 3.0 first official beta is out:

I NEED HELP MY SD CARD CRASHED. HOW DO I START WITH A BLANK SD CARD.

You start by turning off your Caps Lock. Then you format the SD card, download Raspbian - write the image to the SD card, and add the Duet3D repository and install DuetSoftwareFramework according to the Wiki. (Or wait for the Duet3d guys to make the image available as a download)

wget -q https://pkg.duet3d.com/duet3d.gpg
wget -q https://pkg.duet3d.com/duet3d-unstable.list
sudo mv duet3d.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/
sudo mv duet3d-unstable.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/duet3d-unstable.list
sudo chown root:root /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/duet3d.gpg
sudo chown root:root /etc/apt/sources.list.d/duet3d-unstable.list
sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https
sudo apt-get update

The only option I currently see is start with a new Raspbian image and install Duet Software Framework as described here: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Duet_3_prototype_guide_for_OEMs

I'm currently doing that since my Duet3 apparently came without SD card and it seems to work. I have not connected any Hardware to the Duet yet.

@tdybare69 I have just finished writing the documentation to help with this:

https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/SBC_Setup_for_Duet_3

Please let me know how you get on.

@bearer thankfully we have the SD image so hopefully it will be a bit quicker now. Also welcome feedback on the linked documentation.

T3P3Tony

@jannau I am surprised your Duet 3 came without an SD card, I will pass that on. Please see this documentation:

https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/SBC_Setup_for_Duet_3

Feedback welcome I have just written it!

Looks good at a glance, minor formatting glitch in the list way at the bottom, has visible [code] tags.

DuetPi.img 3.2G - this could probably be compressed to save some bandwidth and or time.

Edit:

You will need at least an 8Gb class 10 SD card.

If using a larger card you may wish to expand the filesystem to utilize the adittional space. Run sudo raspi-config nonint do_expand_rootfs to expand the filesystem to span the whole card.

One this is complete Windows may prompt you to format the disk. Do not do this, it is because Windows does not recognise one of the partitions on the image.

Once

Create a new file named “wpa_supplicant.conf” (exact naming is critical, do not have a ".txt" at the end of the file).

This file already exists in the image btw

In a text editor add the following:
country=GB
Replacing the SSID_OF_NETWORK with your wifi SSID and PASSWORD_OF_NETWORK with your password.
Save and safely eject the SD card

Might be obvious to some, but changing the country code for compliance with wifi certifications might be mentioned here. Which channel the driver will allow the wifi chip to use is dependent on this setting. Two letter country code from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1#Officially_assigned_code_elements

If none of these steps work see the Troubleshooting Duet 3 - SBC communications documentation.

Image Size and compression: DuetPi.img 3,447,717,888 vs DuetPi.img.bz2 864,099,605 - maybe not everyone is living in purgatory with a 4Mbit downstream. Also consider adding MD5/SHA1 signature files to help verify the download.
