Octoprint (on Raspberry4) when i try connect to printer Tevo lockdown PWC V2.0

Get Help
21

Referring to the sereial.log, the printer shuts down after receiving the initial command form OctoPrint to establish the connection:

Send: N0 M110 N0*125

A printer shot not react like that. My suggestion is: connect to a PC, start a program where you can send commands directly to the printer.
There you type in M110 N0 and see what happens

22
  1. when with pc i press on CONNECT i listen from PWC unit a "click" of switchoff (i think the relay) and again fast a "click" , is like a fast switch off-switch and stay ON:
  2. i sent the command you told me: M110 N0 , nothing happened
23

i have to chanke something on my marlin config.h? i had to reconfigure power supply to "2"...maybe is wrong?
i didn't change nothing else about power...uhm...

Changing to #define POWER_SUPPLY 2 should not break something.
I assume that the USB connection reset causes the problem.

26

yes.. and maybe the problem is in marlin not octoprint....BUT when connected with usb to pc it have the energy to stay ON....

27

And that makes me curious

28

yes yes, when i press CONNECT the PWC switch off and than immediately switch on again ...i don't know why it switch off but the same i don't know why it switch on back one second after....
want see config.h?

29

I think, I found it.
One thing you may can try is this: Put tape on the 5V pin - Why and how
But I'm not quite sure it will help.

30

i go to read it....

31

i can do it but....i NO have wifi, i have a big switching power of 5volts for pi and camera is working, and it switch off evenif pi is disconnected (but it reconnect with the power of usb)

32

Referring to this https://github.com/makerbase-mks/MKS-TFT/issues/59, thy set #define POWER_SUPPLY to 2.

33

i know that post, i had follow it and thank it i solved same problem.
i had to reverse "+" and data cable on MKS GEN L V1.0 board, change pin and set "2" on power supply and another thing, because i have sensor BLTouch on pin "6" of servo1 i had to set the signal pin to 6 not 11... but this is not the problem....

now i tried this:

  1. i disconnect the cable from motherboard to PWC
  2. i connected from pc trought usb
    i didn't had shut down
    so the problem is: motherboard send a wrong signal to PWC and switch him off
34

One step forward, however.
Maybe you can figure out the issue in Marlin.

35

mks , tft and pwc are not news hardware...could i be the first unluky man with this issue? :frowning:

36

I'm sure you will handle this :+1:

37

it seem like mks gen send M80 and m81 in wrong sequence......uhm....

38

i found this:

From Octoprint logo i read this quen i press CONNECT:

Connecting to: /dev/ttyUSB0
Changing monitoring state from "Offline" to "Opening serial port"
Connected to: Serial(port='/dev/ttyUSB0', baudrate=250000, bytesize=8, parity='N', stopbits=1, timeout=10.0, xonxoff=False, rtscts=False, dsrdtr=False), starting monitor
Changing monitoring state from "Opening serial port" to "Connecting"
Send: N0 M110 N0*125

and when there is "connecting to : /dev/ttyUSB0 the printer switch off!!!!
can someone help me? can i change this? Can i leave it ON while connecting?
I have to change something in Marlin?
