All connections between the accelerometer and duet were mapped correctly when I checked this morning. However, after re-seating at both ends everything is working as expected. Perhaps one of the wires is intermittently breaking. I used a solid core Cat6 cable and should probably remake with silicon jacketed, braided wire given all the movement.
I assumed that the issue was software because I had tested the accelerometer just before the update and the failure occurred just after. A good example of "correlation doesn't equal causation"!
Thanks for the help and pointing out the obvious thing I should have checked!
