RAMPS 1.4 with RepRap Host Software
February 16, 2012 12:31PM
Now that I worked out my RAMPS firmware issue, I'm having a bit of difficulty with getting it to communicate with the RepRap Host Software.

It works fine with RepSnapper but I can't seem to get it to respond to commands via RepRap Host.

I've changed my BaudRate to match the firmware.
I've changed the port name to COM13 (where the mega is installed)

Other settings I'm not sure if they matter:

Extrude 0 Address=0
Shield =False
FiveD=False


Not sure how to get it to communicate. There isn't a "connect to printer" button like RepSnapper has is there? Once again, I'm sure this is an easy fix, I'm just over looking something. Thanks!

I use ramps 1.2 and I find that some software doesn't agree with the firmware that I have on it, but that may be just me.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the deal is. RepSnapper works fine. Not a huge deal cause RepSnapper will do a lot of what I need. Just wanted to see if there was a way to configure the Host Software to work with it.

I didn't mention this before, but I have Sprinter Firmware. Thats probably something that is needed. Thanks.
