Deleting config.g file
-
Hi everyone, are there any updates on this topic? We encountered the same issue with our machine yesterday. Unfortunately, it happened on the machine we had sent to our customer for evaluation
We need to act quickly, so the best solution was to ask them to remove the microSD card from the machine and copy a new configuration file onto it. As you can imagine, they weren't very happy about it
Our setup is a Duet3 6HC running RRF 3.5.2 and DWC 3.5.2. -
@Krzysztof As far as I'm aware, shipping SD cards don't have the factory test macro that deletes config.g on them. I don't know if SD cards that you prepare and ship with your machines do. Other older issues with the config.g file deleting when changes are made have been fixed for a long time in firmware. We haven't had any reports of the config.g being deleted recently.
As suggested before, check that the factory test macros are deleted from the macros folder.

The same problem here. I have a 6xd board. And very regularly the system deletes my config file. It happens always after an emergency stop in the web interface.
Now i used for the first time the STOP button in the paneldue. After this STOP i rebooted and the duet is not connecting with the web anymore. In the paneldue i got a startup but without configfile. So no connection with the webinterface and no homing, so no printing. When the SD-card was checked in Windows. the SD-card was not readable anymore in windows and after complete format as ex-plained in the duet documentation it is ok for windows but stil not readable according to duet. (No errors with windows check and the files are there in Windows)
So now i can start up my delta. i get a screen in paneldue. it can't find the sdcard and i get no internetconnection anymore. So, i suppose it is starting up from eprom but is not reading anything from the sd-card file.Using all the newest firmware for as well the board as the webinterface
Any idea?

Your issue sounds more like an issue with the SD card slot on your particular board. I suggest you create a new thread for your issue. Please include some pictures of your SD card slot soldering and when and where you purchased the 6XD. -
@lazy_mosquito as @Phaedrux suggests, please start a new thread. Please connect via USB, send M122, and post the response. Also see the troubleshooting guide here, and post the responses to the commands found there: https://docs.duet3d.com/en/User_manual/RepRapFirmware/SD_card#troubleshooting-sd-card-issues
