For people to help you they may want to know what firmware you running on it... and maybe post your firmware config so we help you better

What happen if you press one endstop and call a M119 ? do you have the same disconnect ? If its all good , try that on all endstop so we know endstop are OK and working and that something else causing the problem.
I spot an error in your config.g
the line
M665 R182.0 L350.0 B150 455.0
Should be
M665 R182.0 L350.0 B150 H455.0 X0 Y0 Z0
you were missing the H for Height, this probably your problem right there, I dont think the XYZ are important but as soon as you gonna do your bed leveling you will use them so why not put them right away.
Also your thermistor I dont think you should enter H30 right away... thats for calibration... H0 L0 that what I start with, I use a termocouple in the nozzle and calibrate those to match the temps I was reading.
also you have an extra ; right on top of T0 that do nothing, I dont think that a problem but it should not be there is there nothing to comment.
for the paneldue try to do again all step THERE

Hello all,
I'm trying to get a Duet up and running on my homebrew delta and I'm having a couple of issues.
I disconnected all the wires from the ramps and switched them over to the Duet.
I'm able to send the printer home (using home command in pronterface) but problems arise:
1.) when the carriages reach the end stops, the motors immediately shut off and the printer disconnects. I have to unplug the USB cable and plug it back in to get it to communicate properly again.
2.) the temperatures seem to be reporting in °F? (they're in the upper 60's)Solved. Thanks KoKo.
3.) I'm not sure how to connect the inductive sensor.
4.) My PanelDue just kind of glows and shows no information.

4.) My PanelDue just kind of glows and shows no information.
For #1 see PRZ's excellent response earlier.
For #3, it depends on whether youjr sensor has a PNP or NPN output. There is a thread about connecting inductive sensors to the Duet, AFAIR it's in the Duet forum.
For #4, check that the TFT display is connected correctly to the PanelDue board. If it is, and is not displaying anything, then it sounds as though there is no firmware on the board. Might you have you have pressed the Erase button? Try connecting the USB port of the PanelDue to a Windows PC. If it shows up in Device Manager as "Bossa port", then it needs programming - see the fitting instructions at [miscsolutions.wordpress.com] for how to do that.
I'm sorry to be thick, but does this mean that I remove all the resistors that were wired up to the the leads (I'm converting this printer from a FT kit), which would leave me with a brown (+), blue (-) and black (switch?), and then wire the blue and black together? And to what pin? I would just hook up the brown (+) into the 12V+ "high current connection", right?Quote
I think the best way would be to wire the ground and output connections of an NPN sensor to the E0 endstop connector, and the 12V input to +12V. Select probe type 4 in the M558 command and use the M574 E0 S0 command to invert the polarity.

Thanks a ton everyone!
#1) The end stops are now working correctly. Thank you all very much. My only question there would be that after zeroing out (it moves very slowly to perform the homing move), it drops pretty quickly a few mm and then holds. I assume this is normal?

#3) I have a NPN sensor from the FT Kossel kit (Inductive Prox Sensor) and found this info dc42 posted in a different thread about hooking up NPN sensors:

#4) Again, sorry I didn't understand that the Panel Due needed to be flashed. I flashed it and the screen is now displaying correctly however it won't communicate with the Duet. I attempted to set the baud rate per the M575 command via Pronterface (M575 P1 B57600 S1), and setting the baud rate to 57600 on the PanelDue, but it still just sits there saying "Connecting".

OK, So then in order to print I have to either have it connected via pronterface, or use the tiny micro SD card on the Duet (remove it, write to the card, reinstall), correct?

Legrand
Also, I don't know what I'm doing wrong (or right?), but in order to make changes to the config file permanent, I have to remove the card and alter the file manually, correct? I can make changes (to the rod length M665, extruder steps - M92, etc.) in pronterface, but they don't stick after the power is lost, shut off, etc.

Nearly all Duet owners upload files to the SD card via the web interface.

Again, you can edit config.g directly in the web interface, without removing the SD card.

M190 and M109 are working fine, you think the program disconnect because you dont see anything moving in terminal anymore but it just because the firmware Pause and Resume when reach the temperature, Try a M109 S50 the pause will be shorter and you will see it resume after 50C.
We had a discussion about this in the RADDS is stable thread in "controller" check it out its the last 2-3 page.

- Connect the + and - power wires to +12V and ground respectively.
- Connect the output wire to the cathode of a 1N4148 or similar diode. Connect the anode of the diode to the E0 endstop input. The diode is to protect the Duet in the event that the ground connection breaks.

I wired up the sensor but no matter what value I try for "P" in the G31 command, it does not work.
If I use the IR "P" values (1, 2 or 3), the head floats around the bed, touching nothing.
If I use the "switch" values (1 or 4) the head comes down to where I set it to start from (0.7mm off the bed) and then continues to plow slowly into the bed.
I have checked and the probe does light up when it gets near to the bed.
I wired the diode so that the black band (cathode) is wired to the probe and the anode is going to the duet board. I used a 4 pin connector and removed the other three wires as it was all I had:

If the red wire goes to the diode anode, then the wiring looks correct to me. If it really is an NPN sensor and you have wired it correctly, then the E0 endstop LED should illuminate when the sensor triggers. Get that working before you try to use it for probing. Probe type 4 is correct in the M558 command.
How did you have it wired to your previous electronics? Is there a marking on the sensor that confirms it is the correct type?
