Reprappro Huxley with I2C LCD and Marlin configuration.h issue.

Reprappro Huxley with I2C LCD and Marlin configuration.h issue.
July 30, 2013 03:28AM
Hi,
I just assembled my Reprappro Huxley. It was a joy to assemble and it is working just fine. Now I would like to add a LCD and a rotary encoder. I managed to make my I2C LCD work on the printer using the latest Marlin. However, I need to add the reprappro-specific configuration-stuff to configuration.h (and maybe pins.h) to make the printer work as before. It seems that reprappro uses a slightly different branch of Marlin, and merging these was not as straightforward as I first thought.

So my question is: Has anybody had success in using the latest Marlin on a reprappro Huxley? Could you please post the configuration files to get me started.

If anyone has added a I2C display to the reprappro code, it would also be helpful.

Update:
I managed to make my PCA8574 I2C based display work on my Reprappro Huxley using the guide from Think3dPrint3d and by using some updates from the latest Marlin firmware.
Maybe some stuff you can use here... from my blog.

Thank you for your nice blog. I managed to get the display working.
I created a blog post on how I got my Huxley up and running. (Huxley build)
It would have been difficult without this nice forum.

Happy printing,

I did some further work testing I2C LCD controllers when developing my own panel interface.
