Problem with escape characters for password for Wi-Fi card.

@Schickfus also M588 "" isn't valid to forget all networks. It should be M588 S"*"

@jay_s_uk

Ok the stars get filtered out in the chat.

So I am connected via the serial tool on a Mac to the board.

So I do

M587
Remembered networks: none
ok

Then I do

M552 I1 S0
ok

M587 S"SGuest" P"Test"

Don not get an ok

M552 I1 S1

Don't get an answer

M587
Remembered networks: none
ok

What is wrong?

[Schickfus]

@gloomyandy

Ok thanks. I have gone to a network with just a 2.4 GHz

[jay_s_uk]

@Schickfus i would suggest you shouldn't be using the I1.
Just use M552 S0

Edit: reading further, I should only be used when in SBC mode

[T3P3Tony]

@Schickfus have you installed the wifi firmware?
M997 S1

[Phaedrux]

If you're having troubles sending these commands from the terminal program you can put the commands into a macro file and then execute that.

[Schickfus]

@T3P3Tony

Yes according to the two files to be added link.
Yes

Would it work other wise?

But it is not whole ssid. It is shopped

[Schickfus]

@Phaedrux

Yes I did. But this does not work.
It won't run the file

[Phaedrux]

What did you have in the file exactly?
How did you try to run the file?

You need to use M98 P"macroname.g" to execute a macro.

[Schickfus]

@Phaedrux

I used

M98 P"Gcodes/Wifimacro.g"

; wifimacro.g
; tell the Duet to connect to the wifi
;M118 S"Wifimacro turn off Wifi"
M118 S"Wifimacro turn off Wifi"
M552 I1 S0 ; Turn off the wifi module
M588 "*" ; forget all current SSID networks
M587 S"SurfSpaceGuest" P"Test"
M552 I1 S1 ; turn the wifi module back on
;M118 S"Wifimacro turn on Wifi"
M118 S"Wifimacro turn on Wifi"

Remove the I1 from your M552 commands. Are you using an SBC?

You're missing the S in front of the "*". It must be M588 S"*"

The I1 is a required parameter to M552 when using the optional WiFi interface on the MB6HC board, so select the wifi interface. The default is I0 which is the Ethernet interface.

I recall reading in previous posts that Macs have a habit of substituting "smart quotes" for plain double quotes. Are you sure that hasn't happened?

[Schickfus]

@dc42

No I have done some testing.

M587.1

M587.2

And gett ssid string in the beginning chopped offed. Does this mater.

That's a known issue in RRF 3.5beta2, fixed in the forthcoming beta3. It's only the reported SSID that gets truncated, not the stored SSID.

[Schickfus]

@dc42

Is there a way to know that I have installed the right wifi code?

The files:
DuetWiFiServer_32S3.bin
DuetWiFiServer.bin

[Schickfus]

@dc42

I guess that makes my question obsolet.

[dc42]

@Schickfus the correct one for the optional wifi module on the MB6HC version 1.02 is DuetWiFiServer_32S3.bin. It should select that one automatically. If in doubt, make sure that the /firmware folder on the SD card contains that one and not the other one, and send M997 S1 to update the wifi module. The latest version is at https://github.com/Duet3D/WiFiSocketServerRTOS/releases/tag/2.1beta3.

However, if the wifi module is responding to requests at all, you almost certainly have the correct firmware installed, although perhaps not the latest version. If you send M552 I1 S0 followed by M122 then the WiFi section of the report should include the WiFi firmware version.

[Schickfus]

@dc42

It is the right. WiFi firmware version 2.1beta3
