It isn't possible for a motor to not change direction if the connector is reversed . . . likely, you moved the wrong connector . . .
- Tim
Thanks Tim,
I did manage to get the printer configured so far. No more crashing and the printer tip is snug to a piece of paper.
The question I have now is the extruder does not extrude the filament. I heat the hotend up and it starts to push through but then it kind of does small jerky movements
forward and backwards, Any idea what that is? Also how do I get the auto level working? There is no information about that in the manuals?
Thanks
Dave
As others have already stated, either an obstruction in the filament path, or you don't have the driver voltage set correctly for the extruder . . . on the Folger 2020 (well, at least mine) the extruder motor is totally different than the axis motors, and would not feed reliably until I set .85 to .9 volts as VRef for it . . . and it runs barely warm on multi hour jobs at that setting. Unless they have updated, the manual setting for this is just plain wrong . . .
- Tim
Thanks Tim. I'm going to bump up the extruder VRef and see how it goes. I did end up getting some flow from the filament so we will see. My problem now it I get a sample model sliced
and then load the g-code into Pronterface. When I start the print it does what it should and waits till the bed and hotend are heated up and starts printing. The problem is there is no Z movement so it is printing
in mid air. I have no clue why this is printing in mid air instead of down at the bed.
Could it be that your endstops is set as MIN instead of MAX, then the printer would think that it is at Z=0 when you home it, this might have affected your previous problem as well.
Ok that sounds like I should check it. That endstop min/max thing is in the firmmware correct? I'm gonna have to figure that out.

Yes it is in configuration.h.
It is what tells the firmware if the endstop sits at the low end or high end of an axis.
I take it you didn't download FolgerTechs firmware, they these things preconfigured and you only have to edit a few values, if you downloaded a branch of marlin from github I suggest you also download Folgertechs version and then compare the differences in the configuration.h

Here are my endstop settings. If I set the first two to false it does not help. The printer does the same thing. Everything heats up right the when it starts to print it just sits
there with no movement.
// The pullups are needed if you directly connect a mechanical endswitch between the signal and ground pins.
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 = false; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool X_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Y_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.
const bool Z_MAX_ENDSTOP_INVERTING = true; // set to true to invert the logic of the endstop.

So this is what I have going on. I load a sliced model in pronterface. Heat the bed to 200 and the hotend to 65 (printing PLA) and click print.
Once the hotend and bed get to the right temperature it sounds like the printer starts to print but all I get is small pulses and no movement from the printer.
It just sits there and pulses forever. I'm not sure what else I can check?
Here is the start of the gcode made from slic3r in case the problem is in the Gcode.

You dropped a ; at M107, G92 and G1, correct those it looks like one long command to the printer.
When you are connected to the printer via pronterface it will kick back a steady stream of information. The information contains the hotend temperature and the bed temperature. You should see this increasing, when it is ready to print it will give a count down from 10.

That is strange I just copied it from slic3r to this page. I will try adding the; to the code and see what it does. Can slic3r not be adding the; to the code? I did download a new version because when I started it the first time it said a update was available. Should I go back to an earlier version? The only message I get is that printing started at and then it gives the time. Once the temps get to where they should be nothing happens.
Should I put the ; at G1? it seems like all the G1s dont have the ; there.

Still have a few questions as the printer is nearly working but not really.
1-
x and y move 10mm when we see 10mm on the LCD screen
z moves 65mm instead of 2mm as shown on the LCD screen
Why is the z axis moving 32.5x more than it should? is the stepper motor defective?
I see that if I go in control-->motion--> zstep is 2500steps/mm and x and y are 85steps/mm
2- what position is the carriage supposed to be at when set to 0mm?
3- the limit switches and the z-probe don't stop the motors. When I do autohome, the carriage goes all the way to the limit switch, hits it and keeps hitting until it runs out of motion. It does not stop the stepper motors! I do see the red LED light up when I press on the limit switch, but nothing is stopped.
4- The same goes for the z-probe, the probe gets close to the board, the light is on, but it lights up brighter when the probe gets close to the bed, but again, the stepper motors are still going.
Having the exact same issue as your number 3 and 4.
This with DavidF01 might be related to my problem.
The M119 command returns correctly with z-min being triggered when its close to the plate but it seems to be ignored by the config
I don't think I have wired anything wrong with the gcodes returning correctly but I could be wrong.
You have something wired wrong, the light is supposed to be off until it gets near an object.

Just throwing a question out there. How do you guys go about tuning your printers? Do you have a procedure you go through
to tune the printer? do you start with tuning the extruder rate, hotend temp, print speed (is 100 mm/s to fast?) bed heat, layer height, ect ect.
I'm just trying to figure out how to get this printer up to quality prints and I'm having a hell of a time.

I'm just trying to figure out how to get this printer up to quality prints and I'm having a hell of a time.
First you need to calibrate it to get the height correct and the effector moving absolutely flat, on my initial setup using RAMPS and Marlin I cherry-picked from this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDLbqLve128]video[/url] and these two instructions Link 1 Link 2
Once you have the effector moving absolutely flat above the surface I checked if my extruder fed the correct amount of filament (described in one of the links), I did not have to correct anything here the pre-configured configuration.h provided by FolgerTech was spot on.
But remember you have to measure the filament you are using on several spots and calculate a mean value to put in your slicer software. This varies with each manufacturer/color of filament, so it have to be done each time you get a new roll
For the hotend temperatures I find that printing a tall test "cube" decreasing the temperature in 5-10 degree increments each 50th layer (1cm on 0.2 layer-height) until the extruder starts skipping steps and then analyse the result, see where on the cube it looks best, for PLA I'd start somewhere around 235 degrees. This is also varying between each manufacturer/color of filament
For the bed temperatures I found that the recommendations, different for each manufacturer, works real good +- 10 degrees. If the part doesn't stick raise the temp for next print 5-10 degrees.
Note down all your values for each roll of filament, makes life easier the next time you buy a roll of the same color and manufacturer.
About print-speed, I's start around 20-25mm/s and go up from that, printing slow makes it easier to spot settings that are off, such as extrusionrate (also varies between different filaments), retraction settings (also varies between different filaments, wiping/coasting (also varies...), overlaps, etc etc....
You probably are going to find that you have worked your way through an entire roll of filament before all initial kinks have been worked out.
EDIT: A decent test-cube for testing the hotend temp: [www.thingiverse.com]

Koenig,
Good stuff here. Thank you for the links and the description of the process.
So when I edit using the M665 and M666 commands where does it save the information? Does it save it directly to the printers firmware and if so how do I get the saved information
into the firmware I upload using Arduino?

Hey all -
Things have been going great with the printer - but i realized while trying to print my AT walker it's printing in reverse - it displays properly in cura, i save to SD and bring it to the reprapdiscount LCD and print it out, it's in reverse (the parts that were on the right side of the build plate before and they end up printing on the left side)
I got my larger LCD in the mail today (Reprapdiscount Full Graphic) and i had printed a case out for it, and now i see that the button placement is reversed (case has the openings on the left side and they're actually on the right)
Any ideas? gotta be something dumb that i'm overlooking!
Thanks

This is a delta, right? All endstops should be set the same, since they reference the towers, and not the actual cartesian movements. So, looks like this will be "Set Z endstop inverting to 'true' for the win . . ."

So I have my hot end setup correctly on the center of my build plate passing the paper test. When I get to my X, Y and Z towers the hot end does not pass the paper
test. The gap between the paper and hot end is to big. What is the best way to adjust this gap? I see lots of calibration tutorials saying adjust the DELTA_SMOOTH_ROD_OFFSET
setting. Is that setting used for each tower adjustment? If I change it for my X tower wouldn't it mess the setting up for my Y tower? Or should I adjust the actual end stops?
Thanks

Follow this guide. Its the best. What I did is where it says "Now that you have a general idea for the Z height of the effector at each location, it's time to adjust the end stop screws until the effector is at the same Z height at the base of each tower. I prefer to just eyeball it to begin with." You have to manually loosen the endstops and either raise them or lower them depending how your off. Do this first and eyeball it, you will get so close like this that you could literally print almost after doing this. Then you do the rest to get it perfect wether it be convex or concave. This is by far the best tutorial IMHO when it comes to leveling all the towers.

What you are actually adjusting with the "DELTA_SMOOTH_ROD_OFFSET" is the delta radius, don''t know why they have chosen to it this way in marlin. (DELTA_SMOOTH_ROD_OFFSET is part of an equation to get the actual delta radius)
It seems you have started in the "wrong end" though, just make sure you set your "MANUAL_Z_HOME_POS" so that the effector is ~2mm (ballpark, no need for any paper-test or anything of the sort) above the bed, then you start setting you endstops and when you have gotten so far that all your endstops pass the paper-test you go to the middle and slowly go down, when it passes the paper-test read off you Z position, M114, take that value and multiply it with 2.2 and subtract what you get from "MANUAL_Z_HOME_POS".
Now you will have to start adjusting the endstops again, and when all endstops passes the paper-test you go to the middle and check again, this time you should be really close, so now you will have start making 0.5mm adjustments to the "DELTA_SMOOTH_ROD_OFFSET" (since the 2.2 value is based on that the rods are absolutely perpendicular to the bed at your tower positions we can not use it any more), either add or subtract depending on if you end up on Z+ or Z-, for each round you do this use smaller and smaller adjustments to "DELTA_SMOOTH_ROD_OFFSET" until you get a perfectly flat movevment across the bed
The page linked to in the previous post is good, but it doesn't mention anything about the 2.2 value to quicker get to a flat movement it doesn't mention M666 either, wich is a much better way to adjust the endstops if you don't have physical screws on the carriages which this kit doesn't have.

Koenig,
So set my man Z home pos so the the tip of my hot end is about 2mm above the build plate. Then move it to the tower spots and adjust the endstops so that the hotend passes the paper test at each tower. Then move to the center and move it down slowly till it passes the paper test in the center? This is where you lose me on the 2.2 math. I have been reading about the M666 way of doing things but I'm confused on what that changes in the firmware and what would happen if I needed to change this again say in a month or so. Do I order your settings or can I find out what was changed and make those adjustment by hand in the firmware stop I can keep the changes hard coded?
