@droftarts Many Thanks Ian the connection was on the far left of the board out of sight. I am now connected and just chewed up my first piece of wood.

@Woodford said in cannot connect:

Hopefully someone can help. i bought a second hand workbee with Duet3d ipanel from a reputable source, i have downloaded the drivers and yat but cannot connect. in yat it says port open and connected and in port it says "com3 intel(R) Active management technology" i presume this is the duet but when i type the command M115 nothing happens. the duet is connected via usb cable and the panel fires up for about a minute before going blank. i have tried uninstaling and reinstaling the drivers and yat several times but getting nowhere. also the duet is not listed in devices in setting should it be.
any advice gratefully received

@Woodford "com3 intel(R) Active management technology" No, that’s not the Duet. Try a different USB cable; some only provide power, not data as well.

Not sure if you’re using it, but see https://docs.duet3d.com/en/How_to_guides/Getting_connected/Getting_connected_to_your_Duet

The usb is a high speed one so should be right, its the one that came with the duet.
Unusual connection to the board, i don't have anything else that matches it.

@droftarts yes been through it several times but the same result, it looks as if it should be straightforward
