@arhi have a look in UP3DCOMMON/up3d.c

    if( _up3d_connected_fw_version<330 )
      if (b > 3) b = 3; //older firmware versions support max 64 bytes (3 blocks) per write only

up3dinfo does not print the _up3d_connected_fw_version anywhere :(

You can give it a try by modifying up3d.c to force b=3 and print your FW version like this:

    if( _up3d_connected_fw_version<330 )
      if (b > 3) b = 3; //older firmware versions support max 64 bytes (3 blocks) per write only
  b = 3;
  printf("_up3d_connected_fw_version is : %d\n", _up3d_connected_fw_version);

@kscheff thanks I'll give it a go, but this is the latest firmware that exist for up plus 2, V6.09 .. and even that one I can't find anywhere any more (the latest one I can find now in pp3dp installation files is 6.07, no clue why the 2.18 you can dl from pp3dp now does not have a rom in it any more ?!)

Seems that there's more then some small differences between mini and plus firmware :( (for start, the completely different pid)

[kscheff]

@arhi I know its difficult (or let's say impossible) to get newer Firmware. So we stick with what we have here and try to get it going on your side. Please post your results and the _up3d_connected_fw_version of your printer.

[arhi]

:D to be honest I pretty much gave up on the up .. attm patching smothieware to be able to read the PT100 and I doubt I will be returning the original cpu back in the machine. I just noticed that they sanded off the marking on the chip ... when I remember I recommended so many ppl get TT printers :( .. stupid me, should known better :( ... this "removing" of the firmware from the available binaries is complete fsckup imo :( ..

anyhow, I'll recompile with new data and see what can be done in next few days ... thanks :)

[kscheff]

The UP is probably not the right machine in case you are into modding HW... I still like the machine due to its simplicity to use. The transcoder should allow you to modify all parameters. I plan to expose more settings like acceleration control, junction speed etc. so fine control on the print process becomes available. The upcoming Cetus3D is based on the same protocol - so this is the main reason I digged again into the transcoder.

Let's see if we get your machine running by the suggested fix. Thanks for your feedback.

The version is properly seen by the up3dload:
_up3d_connected_fw_version is : 322

[arhi]

firmware is obviously not related to ROM :(

anyhow the b=3 could not solve the problem (always > 0 will never end)

I removed the if <330 and if >72 and left only if b > 3 b=3

  for( ;blocks>0; )
  {
    uint8_t b = blocks;

    //if( _up3d_connected_fw_version<330 )
      if (b > 3) b = 3; //older firmware versions support max 64 bytes (3 blocks) per write only

    //if( b>72 ) b = 72;                          //limit to max. 2048 bytes per logical packet

    uint32_t fblocks= UP3D_GetFreeBlocks();
    if( b>fblocks ) b = fblocks;

    if( b>0 )

but it behaves identically ..
comes up to same point and stops

bogdans-Mac-mini:UP3DTOOLS arhimed$ ./up3dload melzi_highrise2.umc 
UPload: 28.12 kB sent (0%) [50.26 kB/sec]

afaik I uploaded the umc file to github but I can't find it, here it is again .. maybe you can try sending it to your printer (don't bother printing it's big and not very useful) but maybe umc file is messed up :(

toolpaths.zip

[kscheff]

There is another option to try. The UP uses internally a program number where you can upload a program to. I believe the first 4 slots might be used internally for home, withdraw, extrude, etc. Currently up3dload uses ID 5 for uploading. You might try a different slot, see main() in

upload.c
uint8_t program_id = 5;

You can try 6 to 10 or 4 and see if there is any difference.

Another option would be to limit the block count even further to 2 or 1.

Edit: the up3dload program does not care about its content, it just chews binary chunks and sends it to the printer's SD card. Similarly the printer is probably also not looking at the data until you try to start the program. Starting the program only happens when 100% is uploaded.

Edit 2: you can enable debug in/out of the USB traffic by uncommenting line 15 in

up3dcomm.c
#define _DEBUG_IN_OUT_

debug output .. goes ok till 28.12kb and then loops with

@kscheff tried also program_id 6, 7, 8 .. exactly the same behavior .. :( ..

can you check the umc file? maybe there's something in it that is problematic?

[arhi]

from what I see in up3d.c the CMD_46 is "getfreeblocks" .. it expect to get 5 bytes from up (it gets) and expect 5th byte to be 0x06 (it is) and then converts the first 4 bytes in to 32bit value that is 0 in this case ... so the UP! returned that it has no more free blocks... whatever a block is in this concept .. and why there is no more after 28k ?!

so 253 "blocks" free, then we send 62 bytes and next query -> no free blocks ?! how come?

or

274 "blocks free", we send 62 bytes and now we have 271

so in one case 62 bytes is 3 blocks (as expected as since firmware is <3.33 we are sending 3 blocks at a time) and in other case 253 blocks are "gone with the wind"

?
