Marlin Play Sound or Buzz Upon Completion

Hello,

Is there a way to configure RAMPS 1.4 with Marlin to play a sound or buzz when a print has completed?

... you should be able to add a G-code, that moves one or more axes around with varying speeds, so the steppers will play a 'music' you'll recognize

Or try to move the Z axis up way faster than it can actually do - this sounds very noisy on my machine

Maybe not very good for the motor health to do often, then.

Most of my technical comments should be correct, but is THIS one ?
Anyway, as a rule of thumb, always double check what people write.

Thanks for your replies, that would work to a degree. I guess having the voice of a russian lady saying "Operation Completed" is a bit beyond the scope of a normal RepRap.

... maybe you can find one of this 'parrot'-toys, that were common ten+ years ago - simply a chip with FIFO ram and an audio-amplifyer ... with recording a sound you can start the playback from your board when defining an IO pin accordingly ...

You can steal one from one of those musical/talking greeting cards...

And... He uses one of the talking cards where you record the message yourself and then find a woman with a russian accent to say "Operation Complete" or ... THIS, or THIS or THIS...

Just have to be cautious if your reprap starts asking for Sarah Connor...

I'll give some of the ideas above a shot over the weekend, thanks.

If it starts to tell me "I'm sorry Charlie, I'm afraid I can't print that.", it's going out the window.

If you really feel like making it happen :
AVR335: Digital Sound Recorder with AVR ® and DataFlash
[www.atmel.com]

Could probably be easily adapted to work with any reprap controller board with some hardware hacking (need a mike, a speaker and some memory for samples).

if you are only using one endstop, just mount a switch on the other end (pick X or Y) and send the gcode at the end to move there at the end of print.

For example, At the end of my prints, I move the bed to the maximum Y to make the printed part more accessible. A microswitch wired up to a buzzer, bell, recorder, etc. either powered off the reprap supply, or a battery, or whatever, could be contacted by the bed in that position to act as an audible alarm.
