Z axis not moving A10T
Posted: Sun Jul 12, 2020 4:52 am
Ok this is a real long one and I hope someone can help.
I purchased a Geetech A10T used a few days ago and it was a bit of a mess configuration wise. Someone has flashed the wrong firmware, burnt out the 3D Touch and jammed up the extruder.
I flashed the correct Geetech firmware, replaced the 3D Touch and dismantled the hotend. I managed to get everything working except the extruders worked in reverse for some reason. As the Geetech firmware was in Hex format only I was unable to alter the extruders.
I then decided to try Vert's Marlin 2 build and that seemed to have corrected the extruder direction but now when I try to level the bed or level corners the hotend won't move in a downward direction. When I select level. It seems that the Z axis works correctly as I can manually control the gantry up and down. The BL touch also self tests ok.
Any kind of help would be great as I am lost at this point. Maybe a step by step guide on setting up the firmware might help in case I missed something or did to much.
Thanks in advance.
