@paolozampini1973 Stop your Suada. I’ve better things to do than to read the garbage of a man who thinks he’s perfect. Have a nice day and go your ways.

@paolozampini1973 the high temperature errors are almost certainly false as you say. The reason you are getting them is most likely because you have deactivated the onboard drivers but not got it set up in Duex2 mode (whether by mistake or a hardware/firmware/config issue we cannot yet say). This is just a feature of how the fault signals to the processor work (and it makes sense as a safe way to fail!).

Now please answer the questions so we can help you!

@engikeneer I have 8 motors to manage so I have to use it as a duex 5 and not in a modulated duex2

engikeneer

@paolozampini1973 now we see the misunderstanding. If you set it as a Duex2, all you are doing is saying 'only use 2 on-board drivers', so it wont keep tryng to talk to the other three and giving you the over temperature messages. The Step, Dir and Enable signals for your three external drivers will still work.

@engikeneer said in DUEX 5 V0.8 TO DUEX 5 V0.11:

Duex2

if i go to duexdue mode neither driver 5 and 6 and 9 no longer work
and therefore I can no longer use the three motors because the only external motors with the dm860h I have only external X Y which drivers 7 and 8 but the problem isbefore with 08 I didn't have any kind of problem I had only and only a loss of step when I went to do the seams DC42 advised me to switch to v0.11 because v0.8 was not suitable for external drivers then not to mention that now the temperatures of the thermocouples are 16 degrees less but this is another problem Not to mention that I have practically a total of 6 problems out of 4 very serious there is what I say with the 08 It had no kind of problem I had only a loss of step when I went to make the seams on very narrow parts of 10 mm I had a lot of steps now I find myself with a lot of problems with many problems and in any case the 0.11 in problems must be perfected and if you want we can talk about it

paolozampini1973

@engikeneer In practice my printer is composed in this way or four extruders with 4 nema 17 Then I have the Z axis with two motors then I have the x axis controlled by the external driver dm860h and also the external Y axis controlled by the Driver dm860h everything works on 15 mm linear guides with SF1204 screws and the loss of step I had only and only when I was going to make the seams Tighter than 10 mm if I don't do the seams I have no problem I can easily turn 120 even 160 mm without No loss of step but if I go to do the seams seams I lose the step even 50 mm this with two ex 5 well V 0.8 this is the only problem I had and now I find myself six problems to solve what I say but if a person spends money to have more problems than before honestly he has no logic I hope to be understood and understood why I would not have spent more money to have more problems usually more money is spent to have less problems in this case I have spent more money to have more problems I hope I was clear

If you have the duex5 in duex2 mode surely you can connect your external drivers to 2 of the 3 axes available on the BoB. You then have 7 other (5 on duet, 2 on duex) for your other axes. If there is a good reason this won't work I am happy to be corrected.

paolozampini1973

@tekkydave start to think that it is I who do not explain myself well or someone cannot understand my problem but strange because I have explained it as many times as possible every time I am wrong to explain my problem then there is another speech each one gives I am pleased with advice but you cannot give advice and then not follow the advice because in this way you do not get to really anything so if someone can be so kind and courteous You should follow the problem is that if someone gives me advice and then it disappears is no longer heard is useless Anyway thanks

paolozampini1973

@tekkydave however in all this I am really curious if someone really wants to help me because as I have already said at least 10 times with the v 0.8 I did not have any kind of problem a problem that I had a loss of step on some print seams and now I find myself with 6 problems so INSTEAD OF IMPROVING AFTER I made a V0.11 upgrade the facts say that I did a downgrade I don't know if I practically explained myself by switching to V0.11 I should have made a qualitative leap and solved all the problems instead I find myself with 6 more problems I do not know if I have explained myself but no one will follow my problem nor even the engineer because I do not think that all these conversations have not read it AND in any case the V0.11 has problems

paolozampini1973

@dc42 Good morning I have been trying to talk to you for several days obviously you are very busy I can understand it but I want to talk to you about the problems that exist DUEX 5 V0.11 at least tell me if you are interested in talking about the problems that exist on the V 0.11 at least answer me I ask you please please THANK YOU
believe me I have been waiting to talk to you for a long time several days I let you know if you are interested because I want to talk to you to clarify some problems on this v0 11 since in v08 I did not have all these problems Thanks again

@paolozampini1973 If we ignore the fact that you are unhappy with your purchase will my suggested configuration work?
I have 41yrs experience as an engineer and programmer and find the best engineers are the pragmatic ones.
As an inexperienced database developer I used to get very upset and obsessed when a proposed solution wasn't perfect. One day a DBA I looked up to took me on one side and just said "Don't be a dick, Dave".
If anyone else following this thread can say whether my proposed solution makes sense it might help the OP.

@tekkydave my printer configuration:
Z is configured with two INDEPENDENT motors FOR SELF-LEVELING one on Driver 1 = Z one on the driver 9 = Z then X = DRIVER 7 EXSTERNAL DM860H Y = DRIVER 8 EXSTERNAL DM860H then I have 4 driver instructors 3 TMC2660 + driver 4 TMC2660 + driver 5 TMC2660 + driver 6 TMC2660
PROBLEMS WITH DUEX5 V0.11 IN DUEX5 OFF DRIVE MODE 7 AXIS X + DRIVER 8 AXIS Y WHY I NEED TO USE IT

HOW DO POWER SUPPLY X + Y GO WITHOUT ANY DATA COMMAND
HIGH TEMPERATURE M906 I TRIED TO PUT ALL AXES AT 0 MHA THE PROBLEM PERSISTS CONTINUOUSLY THE TEMPERATURE DRIVE TMC2660 AND 24 ° DEGREES
I ALWAYS HAVE THE SAME STEP LOSS PROBLEM AS DUEX 5 V0.8
THERMOCOUPLES REPORT 18 DEGREES LESS

I hope that now I have been clearer How I repeat all the problems I have with the V 011 I did not have before I only had the loss of the step on one type of seam and that's it now These are the main problems I find myself

paolozampini1973

@tekkydave I have to be honest I did not understand your solution which is I repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat I have created enormous problems disassembling DUEX 5 V 0.11 before I did not have these problems because before I did not have these problems question

paolozampini1973

@tekkydave I am willing to do all the tests you say but before doing any tests that I did not understand what you explained to me because I do not speak English very well please answer please please and please I did not have all these problems i had only a small problem the printer worked fine and i didn't have all these problems please help me understand why now with the V 011 or all these problems instead of upgrading i did a download the facts say this would you be so kind to explain to me thank you

paolozampini1973

@tekkydave maybe I can't explain myself I mean I'll give you an example that has nothing to do with it You have a car with an engine that at 200,000 km but works well gives you just a few small problems You mount a new engine and the car gives you many problems with a new engine then either it is the engine that is not good or you have the wrong connections But yes the connections are the same and identical because the engine is not working well This is what I am trying to understand I hope that I have explained myself Thanks for your attention

@paolozampini1973 Great! Some information at last! So currently:
Duet 2 drivers 1 (Z1), 3 (E1) and 4 (E2) are in use, 0 and 2 not used.
DueX5 drivers 5 (E3), 6 (E4), 7 (X, external), 8 (Y, external) and 9 (Z2) are in use.

Seems like the obvious solution is to move the Z2 axis to the Duet mainboard, driver 0 or 2. Then run the DueX in DueX2 mode, as has been already suggested many times.

Also, post your config.g and M122, as I've asked before.

I don't understand what you mean by this:

HOW DO POWER SUPPLY X + Y GO WITHOUT ANY DATA COMMAND

If you mean how will X and Y get step commands in DueX2 mode, don't worry, it will.

droftarts

@paolozampini1973 Of course, running the external drivers on the DueX still doesn't resolve the original problem of your external drivers needing 5V signalling.

Ian

paolozampini1973

@droftarts config (17).g i mean that in DUEX 5 mode WITH DIRVER7 TMC2660 + DRIVE 8 TMC2660 OFF AXIS go on the move as soon as I turn on the electronics they instantly move very slow but they move as soon as I turn on the electronics I hope I was clear they remain still only when it is in DUEX2 mode which is a mode that I cannot use for my configuration and I repeat I did not have all these problems with the V 08 I did not have all these problems Only problem was a small loss of Step now I have all these problems as I have already listed before why

droftarts

@paolozampini1973 In DueX5 mode, the Duet 2 will be trying to communicate with the drivers, and the external drivers are picking up the signal. That is why you need to disable them by using DueX2 mode. As I said before, move the stepper motor on DueX driver 9 to the Duet 2 board. Why can't you do this?

For the other issues, please please please please post your config.g and M122.
