Marlin 1.1.7 with BLTouch for i3 Pro B

[William]

You are correct!Define "Servo0 11" and then it works

Hi! I have installed 3Dtouch and upload Marlin_1.1.8 12/30/2017 with arduino 1.8.5 (arduino 1.0.1 gives error) on my Geeetech I3 pro B
Power on the printer 3D touch make test with continuos flashing (error) .
Following reset procedure as in
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ix7lXvf ... rQ_ie4jVmC
I connected printer to repetier, I sent Gcode: M280 P0 S160, then with allen key size 2, I turned the screw anticlockwise until the LED turns off
after I turned the screw clockwise so the LED will light up. Removing the allen key the 3D touch start flashing again.
I tried several time the procedure but always the same result as soon as I remove the allen key from screw.
When I leave the allen key on screw the 3D touch work properly without flashing error , G28 and G29 work good and start printing
Maybe I'm making some mistake , have you any suggestion to not print with allen key on 3Dtouch sensor?
Thanks

Hello,

I am still very much a beginner when it comes to changing the firmware.
I followed the steps outlined in http://www.geeetech.com/Documents/3DTou ... Manual.pdf
but could not get the sensor to 'extend' when autohoming. It does the automatic test on start-up fine.

Could someone help me figure out the settings (I have a feeling it is Pin related) for my printer (Pro X, I believe) with the GT2560 Rev A board.
I changed the pins as suggested in the PDF(see below) but had no luck.

if MB(ULTIMAKER)
define KNOWN_BOARD
… #define Z_MAX_PIN -1//32
define Z_ENABLE_PIN 35
…
define SUICIDE_PIN 54 //PIN that has to be turned on right after start, to keep power flowing.
#define SERVO0_PIN 32//13 // untested

Any help would be very much appreciated,

JDave

Hi Wes,

I'm very much a newbie and have only made some basic firmware changes with Arduino, but I can't get your 1.1.8 version to compile and get lots of errors like the one given below. I know that this will be something simple (and obvious) but I would be really grateful if you could point mt in the right direction!

Regards,

Mark

Maybe you can check the board that you selected.

Hi,

I did try your firmware but I have problems with a temperature error.
I need 110° for the bed and 235° for the extruder.
When the bed is heating and is coming at 100° degrees I do get an error.

What can be wrong?

Kind regards,
Pascal

Hello all,

Can I ask to the OP to pretty please make this version of Marlin available on Github?

By doing so you/we can merge upstream changes at any time and you don't need to worry about merging your changes by hand and make upload the firmware.

Thank you in advance,

[Rilot]

Thanks for this version of Marlin. I have adapted it for use with the i3 Pro W which I just couldn't get to work with 3DTouch and the original firmware. The thing would just ignore Z offsets. After 3 days of banging my head against a wall I decided to try and adapt your code.

Everything works fine now. Super happy.

Short question on the new Marlin releases:
I am runnung 1.0.2. No problems at the moment. I do not use BLTouch or similar. No need for bed leveling.

Is there any point in upgrading?
