Wifi module disabled - start timed out

@Phaedrux It looks like that is correct. The panel just has a smaller plug with 4 wires going into it. And the ribbon cable on the Duet is only connected over to a second, different board. I guess the 4-wire PanelDue cable doesn't have a high enough transfer rate to be able to upload printable gcode files?

It lacks the pins needed for the SD card.

Alright, thank you all for the help. I'll work on opening a support ticket with the supplier and see if they can get this resolved!

@ZekeAtWork You could wire an external SD card direct to the Duet mainboard on a short ribbon cable, and wire it so it is accessible, maybe? See https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/7406/external-sd-card-reader-with-duetwifi

@droftarts That would be convenient! I would only be concerned about installing plugins, which the instructions I have from our printer supplier only show how to install using the web interface. Also, I am not sure about the wiring details, especially considering there is a second board connected with a ribbon cable already. The CONN_SD and EXP_ALT pins are available though.
That said, is it possible to load files using the existing SD card? That wouldn't be too inconvenient for our setup, at least as a temporary measure.

Please send an email to warranty@duet3d.com and CC your reseller. Include a link to this forum thread and the details of your original purchase. You'll receive a reply with a form to fill out.
Just wondering if you have sent the warranty email yet?
-
@Phaedrux I have not sent a warranty email yet, I've just sent one to the reseller so far to see if they have a fix or if they will replace the module. Would it be better to start the warranty claim in addition to trying to work with the supplier to resolve the issue?
-
Based on the mode of failure I think a board replacement is in your future, no sense in delaying it.
-
Ok, I will get that started as well, then! Thank you for the help
-
As it ended up, the supplier will be sending us a new mainboard to replace this one with the faulty WiFi module.
