delta Rostock mini G2 double extruder setting

mga · Post by **mga** » Fri Sep 11, 2015 2:35 am

waiting for me arrivals delta rostock mini g2'm reading the instructions. I find it very difficult the first setting. I saw that the instructions are for a printer in single extruder, but I have taken with two extruders. How I do homing? There are videos that illustrate this? I think that not so much the assembly, but the start-up and registration are difficult to do. I hope to find support or clear instructions. I'd like to receive it and be prepared.

Hi there, i purchased the same printer with dual extruder...

First of all i found several problem in the assembly instructions, like there is nothing about G2s...
BEWARE WHEN PLUGGING THE NEW POWER SUPPLY INSTRUCTIONS ARE WRONG

Burned mine by following their instructions!!!!! Hacked a 400 Watt PC power Supply....

---- BIGGEST ISSUE i experienced till now ----

I got it to turn on, did the flashing as described , downloaded the G2s firmware...ETC

Got Repetier to connect and followed everything until i get the printer to HOME
and it goes crazy hit the heating bed and that all keeps jumping...

Any idea??? i need help!!!!

1) First check the endstop status. Do note that the endstops should be plugged in X Y Z MAX for G2/G2S, not MIN. And the probe should be connected to pin 1 and pin3(the first and the middle one). Since the printer can not home itself, you can manually trigger the endstop one by one(with probe up), and use M119 to check the endstop status. after homing, the status are like this:
X max: triggered
Y max: triggered
Z min: triggered
Z max: triggered
And when you put the nozzle down, like X0,Y0,Z=50, the endstop is liKe this:
X max: open
Y max: open
Z min: open
Z max: open
then the endstops are correct.
2) manually move the axis one by one, check if all the axes going in the right direction as you told.
3)set the correct settings of your printer:

you need to look for this line in the configuration.h tab of the firmware and set the type of drive motors you have

#define INVERT_X_DIR false // for Mendel set to false, for Orca set to true
#define INVERT_Y_DIR false // for Mendel set to true, for Orca set to false
#define INVERT_Z_DIR false // for Mendel set to false, for Orca set to true

Swap the LCD cable with the SD card one, they must be connected wrong.
And if your LCD has two line of blocks, refer to the link here:
