Firmware 1.20 released
-
I upgraded my Duet WiFi firmware from 1.19 to 1.20 yesterday. All seems to be working but I'm getting strange error messages when I start a print. They start at layer 0 but I was slow to capture them - each layer gives an error like this:
[c]17:34:59Error: Bad command: // starting layer 19 at 2.47368mm
17:34:47Error: Bad command: // starting layer 18 at 2.4mm
17:34:35Error: Bad command: // starting layer 17 at 2.2mm
17:34:24Error: Bad command: // starting layer 16 at 2.18947mm
17:34:12Error: Bad command: // starting layer 15 at 2mm
17:34:01Error: Bad command: // starting layer 14 at 1.90526mm
17:33:49Error: Bad command: // starting layer 13 at 1.8mm
17:33:37Error: Bad command: // starting layer 12 at 1.62105mm
[/c]The print worked OK but layer height was 0.2mm so I'm a little surprised by some of the layer heights.
What does this mean, please?
Thanks.

(edited to correct the starting layer from 1 to 0)

OK, I figured out what it is. The slicer was adding a comment to the beginning of each layer. This was in the format "// starting layer [layer_num] at [layer_z]mm"
The // was being interpreted as a comment but is no longer being interpreted so. I have changed the setting to "; starting layer [layer_num] at [layer_z]mm" and will try this as soon as I have finished the running print and can try another.
I'll report back once I confirm that this is the issue and is sorted.

This is confirmed - it was a slicer setting, nothing at all to do with the Duet firmware but a bit strange that the prior version didn't report errors with that format. Anyway, all sorted, thanks.

It's because RRF now recognises lower case command letters, and also parses lines of gcode more thoroughly.

I'm not sure wich number you're after so I copied the entire response:

...Thanks, that should help me to track the problem down.

I've gone back to 1.19 while your busy finding the rodent messing around in the Network task in the 0.6 hardware. I kept the newest DWC and found that this also works with 1.19 FW. Nice with some new functionality. I'm not sure wether all the new controls works for real with 1.19 but the extended system edit possibilities are welcome. -
I have it on my list to investigate your report before the 1.20.1 release, however I need to get the prototype laser filament sensors completed and shipped first to avoid additional delay to production of filament sensors.

Just tried to upgrade from 1.19 to 1.20. I've uploaded DuetWifiFirmware.bin, but I cannot connect anymore to the printer via wireless. Any idea?
-
Adding some bits. I also tried connecting through USB but the serial device is not recognized by my linux machine (before upgrading used to work).
EDIT: i have tried the fallback procedure #2 described at https://duet3d.com/wiki/Updating_main_firmware but it still doesn't work. -
The USB interface code did not change between 1.19 and 1.20, so I don't understand why you can't access the Duet over USB any more. Do you have any evidence that the firmware update succeeded in other ways, e.g. because an attached PanelDue is working?
-
I don't own a PanelDue. I don't know how to debug this.
-
So as far as you know, the board isn't running at all. See https://duet3d.com/wiki/What_to_do_if_your_Duet_or_Duet_WiFi_won%27t_respond.

Works for me. Maybe it got fixed between your post and mine?

Weird…I still get a 404 when I try the link.
-
I just tried it again (using the link in deckingman's post above) and it works for me.
-
it also works for me with no issues (From the OP's original link)
-
do i have to redo my config file after the update?

Read the upgrade notes to see whether you need to make any changes.

Both of my Duets stopped printing any G-code file with brackets in it's name after 1.20 update. The files upload fine,it's just that the subsequent M32 command fails with "Gcode file not found". Same files worked fine in 1.19 and before, so it's probably something that was changed with 1.20.
Edit: Rechecked, it's definitely the firmware - already uploaded file prints on 1.19.2, gives error with 1.20 or later. Web interface version had no effect on the outcome.
