Salve, non riesco a caricare il firmware grblhal su mks dlc32, la scheda non viene vista da lightburn
la procedura è la seguente...genero il firmware con il web build per esp32 e mks.
Prima di caricare il nuovo firmware ho formatto la scheda con mks esp32 download tools
image
successivamente carico il firmware, scaricato da web build, con la versione 3.6.5
image
con questi parametri..
Alla fine lightburn non riconosce la scheda..
è da tanto che non formatto la scheda e mi sembra di ricordare che la procedura era questa...dove sbaglio?

Il firmware originale e FluidNC riesco a caricarlo senza problemi, la scheda funziona perfettamente. Quale sarebbe la procedura corretta?

quale versione (e con quali impostazioni) dovrei caricare il firmware generato da web build?

Hi, I can't load grblhal firmware on mks dlc32, the card is not seen by lightburn The procedure is as follows... I generate the firmware with the web build for ESP32 and MKS. Before loading the new firmware I formatted the card with mks esp32 download tools

Then I load the firmware, downloaded from Web Build, with version 3.6.5

with these parameters.. Lightburn doesn't recognize the card at the end. It's been a long time since I formatted the card and I seem to remember that the procedure was this... Where am I wrong?

The original firmware and FluidNC I can load it without any problems, the board works perfectly. What would be the correct procedure?

Which version (and with what settings) should I load the firmware generated by Web Build?

Lightburn doesn't recognize the card at the end

I do not know the MKS download tool, when I erase then download with the ESP32 download tool I can connect with ioSender. I do not have a LightBurn license so cannot check that.

If you connect with a terminal program such as PuTTY what output do you get and does the controller respond to commands?

Eccomi, rifaccio da zero la procedura e genero il firmware (oggi) con solo LB cluster attivato.

image

Stavolta utilizzo soltanto lo strumento esp 3.6.5, sia per cancellare che per il flash

image

Spengo la scheda e riavvio

eseguo il flash con le impostazioni in foto

image

spengo e riaccendo

ne Lightburn ne iosender riconoscono la scheda

image

scarico Putty (la prima volta che lo scarico e non lo so usare) e apro la connessione seriale COM4 115200

image
image

e l'unica cosa che posso fare nel terminale seriale è il comando "?" e ottengo come da foto, non accetta ad esempio $i ecc.. accetta soltanto il "?"

rieseguo la cancellazione del firmware sempre con lo strumento esp 3.6.5

image

spengo la scheda e riaccendo
Carico il firmware che lei mi ha inviato il 6 settembre 2023 in occasione della nuova variante LB cluster

image

Spengo e riaccendo

image

Sia Lightburn che lasergrbl vedono tranquillamente la scheda

Con il firmware del 6/09/23 non riesco ad accedere ne con iosender ne con putty ma accedo con Lightburn e lasergrbl

Ecco la discussione del firmware di settembre #77

Try shorting the feed hold pin to ground - Grbl/grblHAL does not accept any command when in Hold state (and the ESP32 sometimes fires GPIO interrupts for no good reason).

mks_dlc32_v21_003
questa è la mappa della mks dlc32, non so quale sia il pin feed hold da portare a terra.
Inoltre devo portare il pin a gnd prima di eseguire il flash del firmware?

This?

And please translate comments to english before posting, I do not read italian.

It should be the sda ​​pin to bring to gnd...but should this be done before the flash or even before erase?

@distebia

I redid the erase procedure (with sda+gnd together), I switch to flash again with the jumper...Lightburn doesn't see the card, iosender 2 times out of 10, putty nothing and lasergrbl sees it this way, first marks at the top errors, does not accept the "?" but accept $$ and $i, this doesn't seem normal to me.

After the card has been seen by lasergrbl, iosender also sees it but nothing for lightburn.. I restart the card and iosender doesn't see it, Lightburn doesn't see it and neither does lasergrbl

I change the card and take another mks dlc32, exact same thing, the card remains in an uncertain state after the flash

With the new card I load the September firmware without problems

I guess I have to buy a MKS board in order to determine what is going wrong.
When I flash a dev board everything works as it should, consistently. So something must be amiss with the code when interacting with the MKS board.

If you connect with a terminal can you interact with the controller? $I gives a response? ? as well? If so, what?

With a fresh Web Builder version:

-If you connect with a terminal can you interact with the controller? $I give an answer? ?Also? So what? - The behavior of the terminal is described in the previous steps where with the new firmware only $i and no "?", sometimes nothing, but everything with error messages when opening the connection. I don't know what mks wants to have the correct flash but the one generated in September accepts it without problems
Another thing... at the end of the message you attach photos of iosender 2.0.45p6 (you have the link?) and you claim to generate the firmware with a new version of Web Builder... I only find http://svn.io- online engineering.com:8080/ which is 0.9g

So you get "Hold" state even with the SDA pin shorted to ground when sending ??

Another thing... at the end of the message you attach photos of iosender 2.0.45p6 (you have the link?)

It is a edge version, also referenced in the sender Wiki.

I only find http://svn.io-/ online engineering.com:8080/ which is 0.9g

0.9g is the Web Builder version itself, the generated firmware is currently 20240619:

In this image I thought I understood that you were generating the firmware with a new web build version, but I mistranslated

I may have found the reason. SDA is connected to GPIO0 (BOOT) and the september firmware is built with an older version of the ESP-IDF framework and the two versions of the ESP32 dev boards I have behave differently - one works correctly and one not. So it may be a combination of chip revision (or board design), framework version and the use of GPIO0 that causes the issue. Or not... Anyway, I will remove feed hold support and post a build for you to try.

ok, thanks, I'll wait for the new firmware to try then.

Perfect, I erased with esp 3.6.5 tool, and loaded without problems, accepts $i and ?, everything perfect.

Salve, in futuro verrà aggiunta qualche opzione su web build per generare il firmware con il problema risolto?

Hi, I saw the new build and changelog, where my problem for esp32 is mentioned. I generate the firmware but it doesn't load it, same procedure as before

Somehow the commit did not make it through - should be ok now.
