Re: Latest Marlin RCBugFix branch for PI3 Pro B

NiklasO,

I was just curious what changes are in the latest update you made compared to early March besides the DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT and define DEFAULT_MAX_FEEDRATE changes you mentioned before? Trying to see if it's worth doing an update.

Thanks for your work on this. It's very useful :)

Re: Latest Marlin RCBugFix branch for PI3 Pro B

Howdy, I am using the firmware you posted (Marlin-RCBugFix_665b7f3-PI3_Pro_B_3DTouch). It's been mostly working great. However, I am having some Y-axis skipping during printing. I checked the belt and driver. I wasn't having this issue with the old FW. Anyone know of anything I could have missed in ...

Re: 3D Touch Sensor:Auto-levelling for Geeetech 3D printer

Bernd, #define min_software_endstops true // If true, axis won't move to coordinates less than HOME_POS. Try changing the above to false. When the above is set to true it won't allow the z axis to go negative. I just wanted to give an update. I have tried reverting back to the older firmware with th...

Re: 3D Touch Sensor:Auto-levelling for Geeetech 3D printer

Well apparently there are a few different models out there. This one is triangle lab and that was the problem. You need set "Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING true". Found instructions here https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_lX6Bwizwk0RzFhTTF2dHhSems/view incase anyone has similar issue. Now I can finally tes...

Re: 3D Touch Sensor:Auto-levelling for Geeetech 3D printer

So I used the marlin package Marlin-1.1.0-RC7 for PI3 Pro B7 and made a couple changes based on the code listed above by menestrello (thank you again). It's basically doing the exact same thing which leads me to believe something is going on at a hardware level. It's just strange that my mechanical ...

Re: 3D Touch Sensor:Auto-levelling for Geeetech 3D printer

I wouldn't think so. I think those firmwares are for the GT2560 specifically. You could always try modifying the stock firmware instead. Originally I started off with modding my firmware then switched over to the one here when I had issues. I'll see about updating and using the BLTOUCH method. Than...

Re: 3D Touch Sensor:Auto-levelling for Geeetech 3D printer

I am using the GT2560 board for my printer. Could this possibly be part of the issue with the FW in the first post?
