Hey Ppl.

i Upgrade the Firmware and also uses an example firmware:
"Marlin_GT2560-PI3_Pro_B" from this forums.
i also umpluged the End Stop Sesores, no success, same error,
LCD Panel shows sometimes Endtop at X Axis.,, but... it isnt connected....

I can Provide Sceenshots or Pictures if needed.

Kind regards, Tim.

Hi,Tim
You can check the status of the endstop like the link shows:
http://www.geeetech.com/forum/viewtopic ... 13&t=17042
And you'd better finish the installation and test of your endstops before you start a test of your motors.

Thanks much for reply,
i allready finished the build, but unpluged the endstops just for testing.

I heavent not set a home position after i set, axes move into bith direction.


now i have a nother Problem, for e.g. the Y axis only move for 30mm than it stops,
i think i need to check firmware configuration or ?


Where is the Home Position of an axis, at the Endstop or at the opposive site?

Have you modified your firmware?If you have,you can reload our official firmware.
Plus,the home position of an axis is at its endstop.

i only inverted X and Y Axes, now there turning into correct direction.
#define INVERT_X_DIR true // 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

found this also here in Forums.

now, after i set the home position at the endstopps,
my Z axis wants to go very deep, if i do not turn it off at goto home, he'll crash the printer table.

hope for your suggestions :)

Sounds like the wrong direction of Z motor,you can invert Z axis too.

Okay, iot it nearly all done.


My last problem.
i'll heat my extruder to 200°
Put in the Filament (by pushing arm down)
and let the Extruder motor run, but nothing comes out of the needle.

anyone?

Have you plug your filament into the Nozzle Throat completely?Like the filament must be stay the groove of the pulley,look at the pic below...

Then if the position of filament is all right,check out the following:
1) Checking if the extruder temperature has reached the preset temperature, the lowest working temperature for extruder is 175°set up in the firmware. When heating, if it do not reach the temperature you set up(over 175°),the extruder will be still at the left hand corner(home position) rather than moving to the center of print bed.
2) if the temperature could reach the temperature you set up, and x,y,z stepper motor rotate correctly, but the extruder just move over the print bed surface and extrude anything. In this case, please check whether the stepper motor of extruder rotate or not, or check if it’s direction is reversed that it retract filament. In addition, please see if the nozzle is clogged.
