Stops play gcode file.

ChrisRoberts_SW · May 22, 2014, 4:45pm

When playing a gcode file of abort 55000 lines, I am getting this:

I have done several rebuilds with different options(disabled network support, touchprobe etc) but still get the same result. It stops at about line 18354-18359 everytime. I thought it might be memory issues, but I have caught it right before it gets to that line with:

I modifed SimpleShell.cpp

stream->printf("Entering boot mode...\r\n");
    //system_reset(true);

That got me past lines 18xxx but it still crashed again at about 22xxx with:

And I didnt issue any commands or pause buttons etc.

Can you try with a queue size of 16 ?

ChrisRoberts_SW · May 22, 2014, 4:59pm

Sorry forgot to mention i did, no change. also tried 64 also no change.

Arthur_Wolf · May 22, 2014, 5:01pm

Can you try with panel and ethernet fully disabled ?

ChrisRoberts_SW · May 22, 2014, 5:04pm

I have tried it without network(src\makefile export NONETWORK = 1), but I dont have a working panel. I have used just serial console but still get the same result. I’ve been beating my head on this all week before I posted here. But at this point I have ran out of things to try(that I know of).

Arthur_Wolf · May 22, 2014, 5:07pm

Can I see more lines ( about 100 ) before the moment it crashes ?

ChrisRoberts_SW · May 22, 2014, 5:08pm

Sure I will run it again, also not sure if it matters but I’m using a LPC1769 board.

Arthur_Wolf · May 22, 2014, 5:09pm

You mean you are using a lcpxpresso or the like instead of a smoothieboard or azteeg X5 ?

ChrisRoberts_SW · May 22, 2014, 5:12pm

Correct, its a lpcxpresso LPC1769, I cant afford a smoothieboard(yet) but I already had the LPC1769.

Arthur_Wolf · May 22, 2014, 5:15pm

It might look like for some reason the board thinks the “bootloader” button ( that is used for flashing the bootloader so you probably have it wired ) is being pressed.

I have no idea however at this point why that would happen always at the same point in the file …

ChrisRoberts_SW · May 22, 2014, 5:25pm

I will look into that but so far so good with the changes to “SimplePlayer.cpp” and these to “Player.cpp”

void Player::abort_command( string parameters, StreamOutput *stream )
{
   /* if(!playing_file && current_file_handler == NULL) {
        stream->printf("Not currently playing\r\n");
        return;
    }
    playing_file = false;
    played_cnt = 0;
    file_size = 0;
    this->filename = "";
    this->current_stream = NULL;
    fclose(current_file_handler);
    current_file_handler = NULL;
    stream->printf("Aborted playing or paused file\r\n");
    */
    stream->printf("Told to abort for some reason but aint gonna do it.\r\n");
}

Its made it past line 35xxx which is the longest its made it thus far.

Wolfmanjm · June 2, 2014, 12:07am

I’ll bet the problem is that fact you have no spaces in your gcode. This is really bad practice. what happens is it thinks the entire line is one command, and generates a hash for it, which eventually matches a console command by pure random chance.

I recommend you format your gcode in the recommended way with spaces in between the Gx and the other parameters and this problem will go away. all you did was hide the matches, but much worse matches could occur.

Wolfmanjm · June 2, 2014, 8:27pm

FYI this is now fixed in edge, we no longer use checksums to match commands.
