Duet 3 Mini 5+ Error: short-to-ground reported by driver(s)
-
I have been running a Two Trees Sapphire Pus (CoreXY) printer with a Duet WiFi Clone for 6 months without any issues.
I just upgraded to a Duet Mini 5+ with a toolboard. Swapped boards and removed all the unnecessary hotend wiring. So the stepper motor wiring is not modified in any way.
I can not run my x/y motors above 500 mA. It starts to resonate very badly and display errors:
Error: short-to-ground reported by driver(s) 3
Error: over temperature shutdown reported by driver(s) 1
Warning: high temperature reported by driver(s) 1 3Driver 1 and 3 are my X / Y motors.
I also have not managed to get the sensor less homing to work reliable again.
At 500 mA it runs smoothly and quiet and prints ok, if it was not for loosing steps sometimes. So I need to use higher current ( I assume).
What could be wrong?
Faulty board?
Incorrect configuration? (I also moved from firmware 2 -> 3 and may have missed something)/fotomas

Do you get the same if you run in spreadcycle the entire time?
Have you tried running x16 microsteps across the board yet?
What firmware version are you running? Should be 3.3.
What PSU voltage?
Can you share the results of M122 and M98 P"config.g"?

With spreadcycle all the time, D2 as in for eg. M569 P0.1 S1 D2
homing just makes it stand still and buzz. I hope I have understood M569 correctly.x16 microstepping (D2 removed and V50 back) makes things better, but the resonance increases as it picks up speed until it detects a false sensor less endstopp. It is like some kind of vibration that counteracts the movement.

What are the specs of the motors? Do they have high back emf by chance?
Also take a look at this page.
-
Check your motor winding specs on the manufacturer page. I had the same problem. Bought LDO steppers but the harness came from somewhere else. I just released the pins from the plug on the stepper side and reconfigured them correctly according to the manufacturers diagram.
-
@tony449777 If your experience should apply in thiss case the pin out for the stepper motors has to differ between the duet WiFi and the mini 5. Which I highly doubt.
(Away from printer will investigate more when I get hold of stepper motor model no)
-
@fotomas It wasn’t the pin out of the driver that was wrong. It was how the output of the driver was actually connected to the coils of the motor. They were physically in the motor plug in the wrong configuration.

This is a common issue because different manufacturers of stepper motors use different pinouts. When using motors with a built-in socket and separate cable, ALWAYS check the phases.
-
@dc42 Exactly. That’s what I’m trying to say,

If this were the case here and the phases not paired correctly there would be no movement at all, but if you want the videos it's clear there is motion, but at a certain speed there is a lot of vibration and noise.

I got things working.
I checked wiring, everything was ok (as exprected since wiring was not modified since working ok on a Duet Wifi)
I increased the acceleration (M201) on X/Y from 300 to 800 this made it possible to increase the motor currents on X/Y to 800.
As an effect of this I had to tweak the sensorless homing to use less current.
So increased acceleration seems to be the solution, the problem may still be there but pushed out of bounds for my usage/speeds by increased acceleration.
I do not understand how increased acceleration have effected things. Maybe someone can explain this? It would be nice to know if I run into more trouble.
-
That's an interesting result. I don't understand why higher acceleration would solve it either. You've made the motor/stepper combo happy at least.
