3rd Gen Firmware question / help
February 05, 2012 09:44PM
Hello,

I'm resurrecting an older project of mine.

I am making my own junkplotter. I'm using an older Demi-arduino with a Adafruit motorshield to drive some steppers from a printer. I'm using a reduced the 3rd Gen Firmware for the Sanguino on my arduino to receive instructions from replicator-g. Right now, my plotter is responds to the control panel and it is drawing, but it pauses when I try to "print". When it continues, The plotting point goes towards the point that it should be going at that time if the previous steps had occurred. I can't figure out where in my code I've messed up, but I think it has something to do with handing requests from Replicator G. The motors don't step except for when the progress messages are rolling in replicator G. Its almost as if the timer has been shut off except for a when receiving messages.

Any input would be appreciated.
Marc
