Random firmware resets

R_KlaucoR_Klauco
in Bug Reports

I am using 0.92.8 version of firmware.

I love the features and I am generaly satisfied with the SW.

However, lately I started to experience a strange problem.

I have direct serial connection to my Melzi board from Banana Pi. This works no problem. I printed hundreds of hours worth of prints.

Lately, however, I start to have failures - Octoprint complains about "Unhandled firmware exception".

So, I checked what's going on - I am sending Gcode to the board as usual and on random places all of a sudden the board resets.

I can see the log - sent command and instead of OK, I can see the repetier FW initialization log.

And, as soon as the timeout hits, Octoprint starts to resend the command, but this is unsuccessfull, of course, as Repetier is expecting command number 1 and I'm sending command number 3000...

I have not seen a common pattern  for now - even when I try to re-print the same thing, usualy all prints OK.

Once this happened twice in a row.

I checked all the power connections for the board (powered by the printer, not by USB or anything).

But it's very difficult for me to identify possible short-term power outage :(

Any hints/tips from someone who experienced similar behaviour?
