How to install the firmware for GT2560

[Docent]

Hi!
I can not replace the firmware on my Prusa I3 pro B.
I do everything according to the instructions from the first page, and when it comes to downloading
I get a message

I need to change the number of motor steps.
Are there other ways for this purpose?
I spent 8 hours today and could not do anything.
Tell me the solution plz!

hi guys

My geeetech prusa i3 pro afer i tried to do firmware update now the lcd screen has 2 lines of blocks and nothing else shows also i have a high pitch squeal all the time the printer is turned on or when my computer is attached.

when i tried again to u

thankpload firmware the upload stops with an error

any help to get this working again would be apreciated

thanks

You make it sould so simple lol

the problem is the file will not verify it come up with an error

so I cant upload the firmware ?

thanks any help would be apreciated

Could you show the detail about the error?

[Master Chris]

Ok I habve managed to upload the firmware, and it was my fault it didnt load up , I have both the 1.01 version of arduino and 1.8 and every time I tried to load the firmware it would open in the later version so would have the error i was getting, when i finally managed to open the firmware in 1.0.1 error was gone and all has loaded and my squealing and screen has returned to normal. thanks for being so patient and i apologise for waisting your time instead of double checking everything my end.

now for the bad news lol

I cant use the manual settings in Repetier or print from this software i can connect to the com port but none of the controls seem to work please help again


thanks

Here are some tips for your case:
1、Try to change different value of the baud rate in the printer setting;
2、Reinstall the board driver which you can find in user manual;
Taking some video about you lastest case if it still don't work,because it will be much clearer to locate the key point.

OK, I'm lost.

I have my printer up and working, just fine. I want to save the Xsteps and Ysteps setting that I got after calibrating but every time I power down the machine it loses the values I put in.

Where, in the firmware, do I update those values?

Prusa i3 model with the GT2560 board.

Thanks

Hi,after everytime you change the value of Xsteps and Ysteps setting ,you need to store the memory at Main>Control>Store memory.
