Hello so I bought the iron3d+ from diytechshop I have put everything together and downloaded all the software/firmware needed.... thing is now when I'm in printer face and I press any of the direction buttons for the X or Y axis they will only move 1mm no matter what I press. When I load a file and press prHello so I bought the iron3d+ from diytechshop I have put everything together and downloaded all the software/firmware needed.... thing is now when I'm in printer face and I press any of the direction buttons for the X or Y axis they will only move 1mm no matter what I press. When I load a file and press print the x-axis will move all the way left and keep moving even tho it hits the end stop. The Y axis will move all the way to front and will continue trying to move. The extruded won't extrude any filament, even tho I can hear the motor trying to spin. I've checked all the pots and they are at .48 the x-axis will move all the way left and keep moving even tho it hits the end stop. The Y axis will move all the way to front and will continue trying to move. The extruded won't extrude any filament, even tho I can hear the motor trying to spin.

Hey, I deleted your double post, I think it was double-posted because of an error? The previous post stopped at "...pots and they are at .48" so no worries but please look out for things like this smiling smiley

Thank you did not mean to post twice. The first time it said that it appears to be a bot writing and said it wouldn't post so I tried again haha.

For a start, send M119 to the printer and check the results. It will tell you the current status of the end stops. If none of them are triggered, trigger each in turn manually and send M119 again when triggered. This will let you know whether your end stops are working. Also try posting your Configuration.h file from your firmware here so we can take a look at it.

Are you trying to extrude with your hot end at temperature? Marlin won't let you cold extrude by default.

no I was not trying to extrude cold. I had heated up the extruder and when I manually press the extrude button you can hear the motor turning but the gears don't actually move.
Re: i3 issues..

Unless you're holding down all the endstops at once, none of them should be triggered when you send M119. You'll need to comment out the lines in Configuration.h that are inverting the endstop logic, so comment out the lines in Configuration.h that read:

const bool X_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Y_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.

To comment them out, but a # symbol at the start of the line.

Do you have max endstops? If not, disable them by uncommenting (removing the # character) from the following line in Configuration.h:

#define DISABLE_MAX_ENDSTOPS

Also enable software max endstops to prevent damage, by uncommenting the following line:

#define max_software_endstops true // If true, axis won't move to coordinates greater than the defined lengths below.

That should get your endstops working correctly and help with your movement problems. After you've changed Configuration.h and uploaded the modified firmware, send M119 again and none of the endstops should be triggered.

Be careful when you first try to home your printer - if it thinks the endstops are at the wrong end it may continue moving without stopping. If that happens, you'll need to invert the location of the endstops.

Regarding the extruder, if you manually pull the filament out of the extruder, can you see if it's worn away where the hobbed bolt was contacting the extruder? If so, something may be blocking the nozzle. If not, try tightening the guidler down on the extruder a bit to allow the hobbed bolt to grip properly.

Also about the extruder, I didn't have any filament in. I just trying to make the gears move.

Re: i3 issues..
August 23, 2014 02:49PM
I'll try this again and then give up, because obviously I've forgotten everything I thought I knew about programming.

Change these lines, which you've commented out:

//const bool X_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
//const bool Y_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
//const bool Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.

To the following, where they are not commented out but are no longer inverting:

const bool X_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = false; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Y_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = false; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Z_MIN_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = false; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.

This is what happens when I post late at night.

alright so I made those changes and it flashed, then I sent the m119 command and everything was open. but now nothing will move, I head the motors moving but nothing actually moves. I can upload a video if needed. and thank you for your help! anything is better than nothing at this point!
Re: i3 issues..
August 23, 2014 05:30PM
Can you post your M119 results again? Have you disabled the max endstops?

here are the m119 results now:
x_min: open
x_max: open
y_min: open
y_max: open
z_min: open
z_max: open


and this is what my endstop settings are:
// ENDSTOP SETTINGS:
// Sets direction of endstops when homing; 1=MAX, -1=MIN
#define X_HOME_DIR -1
#define Y_HOME_DIR -1
#define Z_HOME_DIR -1

#define min_software_endstops true // If true, axis won't move to coordinates less than HOME_POS.
#define max_software_endstops true // If true, axis won't move to coordinates greater than the defined lengths below.
Re: i3 issues..
August 24, 2014 04:01PM
If you don't have max endstops installed, then you need to disable them. Do you have max endstops installed?

Nothing lol. I don't even hear the motors spinning like usual.
Re: i3 issues..

alright not sure what was going on there, I restarted everything and now when I try to home I just get high pitched squealing with no movement.
Re: i3 issues..
August 24, 2014 05:03PM
Try a manual move, but also try triggering one of the end stops with your finger, hold it down and send M119 again. The end stop you hold down should be reported as triggered.

Re: i3 issues..
August 24, 2014 05:08PM
alright so when I hold the end stop and send the command they are all triggering as they should.. ie. if I hold the y endstop and send the command it comes back x open y triggerd z open.

and when I manually try to move anything it will jerk and that's all.
Re: i3 issues..
August 24, 2014 05:25PM
It sounds like the ref voltage on your steppers is too low. Try upping the X axis to .55v and see if that one moves.

Re: i3 issues..

after doing that there is no jerk just the humming/squealing sound.... I have finally got an email back from diytech and they said I can bring it down to them and they will help me get it all set up. thank you so much for your help I really appreciate it! I hope to become as knowledgeable about this stuff as you!

So it turned out the issue was they forgot to put jumpers under the stepper drivers
