Re: Axis only move in the +x, +z, +y direction
September 05, 2012 11:29AM
Hi I just finished my reprap but am still trying to get it to do what I want it to do, the axis only move in the plus direction, and sometimes dont stop when they hit the endstops. sometimes when i press the endstop by hand i can move the axis in the minus direcrtion.

Some of the configuration in marlin i dont understand, and have tryed what i do understand. I know this is a problem with the firmware, and have posted my marlin set up above.

I have 1.8 1/16th steppers
t2.5 belts with 16 tooth machined pulleys
ramps electronics
mechanical enstops
100k thermister on j head
mk2 heatbed, with 100k thermister also
and a fan hooked up to D9 on the ramps that does not work?

If anyone could offer some help on configuring marlin to work for me that would be great help

the lead screw is M8 metric also
thanks

Invert the endstop logic. You have them set to true but your endstops are wired the other way around.

ok thanks for the help, do you know how to turn on a fan with ramps and marlin?

here is a list of commands [thefutureis3d.com]
m106 fan on
m107 fan off

did u get endstops working i had a tough time getting mine working.

i have z endstop at max(homes to top) also my y and x endstops are nc(normally closed) but my z endstop is no(normally open). i had to change z to no because for some reason on nc it would hit endstop switch and keep going another 3/8 inch. and crash endstop.

hope this helps

here is how i got them to work not sure if its correct but it works

//#define ENDSTOPPULLUPS // Comment this out (using // at the start of the line) to disable the endstop pullup resistors

M106 doesnt seem to turn my fan on? i just connected the two wires of a fan into the D9 on the ramps ( not sure if thats correct). If it is can i connect a fan for the hotend aswell to the same D9?

Thanks yes i thonk i have the endstops working now, just trying to set it up so it makes full use of the axis without crashing
cheers

yes i have 2 fans hooked to d9 and the m106 turns them on. not sure why yours dont work.

mabey check you have board listed as 33 i think if you use 34 it makes d9 power for 2nd hot end. im new to this so this is just how i think its suppose to work

check with multimeter to see if your getting power out of d9 to eliminate a bad fan or connection.

goodluck
