MiamiDX: Error (3,1) trying to configure the SANA-II device.
MiamiDX throws the following exception when the Plipbox is powered on after the Amiga is powered on (tested with firmware v0.5, not yet tested with firmware v0.6):
Miami Deluxe Request Error(3,1) trying to configure the SANA-II device.
The Plipbox works fine if you power on the Plipbox first then power on the Amiga. If you reset the Amiga after the Plipbox has been working normally, MiamiDX complains that it doesn't get a response to the DHCP request. Appears that the Plipbox is in some undetermined state when the Amiga gets reset and it doesn't get reset unless you power things off then on again in the right order.
This seems to be a kind of reset issue. Is there there some separate software which will do a Plipbox reset prior to trying to connect with MiamiDX ?
well, actually this is not a supported use case. always power on the plipbox first and before launching the device driver.
I admit that having a reset command for the device would be a good idea. I am currently reworking the protocol and I'll keep this in mind.
Great, some kind of software reset would be lovely. Many thanks for your efforts!
Connecting the Amiga _RESET signal (pin 25 on A1000 and pin 16 on all other Amiga models) with the Arduino reset pin resolves the problem. Also connect the Arduino reset pin with the ENC28J60 reset pin. This way, the Plipbox will always reset as soon as the Amiga is reset.
Can you detail where the reset pins are on the Arduino and the ENC28J60 ?
These are labeled with "RST" on both devices, the Arduino and the ENC28J60 modules. Just make a connection from Amiga Parallel (_RESET) -> Arduino (RST) -> Ethernet (RST). For the connection between Amiga _RESET and Arduino RST you might want to use a standard diode (e.g. a 1N4148) to protect your Amiga additionally.
Anode or cathode to the Amiga plug ?
