How set up the heated bed in Configuration.h ?
I ordered and received:
* PCB Heatbed MK2Y 200
* MKS HOTBed MOS V0.1
* Temp sensor
The temp sensor is not responding in Repetier, and its not possible to switch the heater on.
And how did you mount the heatbed to the Delta Printer ?
The heat bed plate is not really flat by itself.
But I guess that when the glass plate is clamped on top of the heatbed it will not be an issue.

I'll put a guide on my to do list. But for now: you need to calibrate the z-offset to your printer. There are 3 ways to do this: In the firmware in configuration.h; by using the M212 command and in Repetier host you can set a Z-offset as well. I find it easiest to use the M212 command on a test print, and when the first layer sticks well, put that value in configuration.h as default. When homing, the pulleys should reach the end-stops, trigger them and then lower themselves with the amount that was set in the end-stop adjustments.
case 323: // M323 set Z

Here’s the latest version of the FLSun firmware:
G29 now takes some parameters to overrule the default settings in configuration.h:
G29 P(number of grid Points, min 3 max 10) B(bed probable radius)
G33 now probes multiple points as well (upto 12*3 + 6 centre points): use A to run autocalibration, without A is just checks if the calibration is OK. Beware in order to speed up things the iteration starts with lesser points as given with the P-parameter, once the calibration is almost ok it switches to the denser grid defined by P.
G33 P(number of grid Points, min 1max 12) B(bed probable radius) A(auto-calibrate)
M206 has been reworked for deltas. The normal Cartesian M206 has been disabled, but a M206 D now sets the Delta parameters as described in previous posts to compensate for the centre of the frame triangles not being the exact centre.
M206 D(delta mode) H(z-Height - sets Cartesian Z adjustment) X Y Z (measured smooth rod offsets - sets incremental Cartesian XY adjustments) R (Reset Cartesian XY adjustments to zero)
Calibrate the printer with a low number of points e.g. G33 A P3, measure the distance from nozzle to the 3 towers and set the those with M206 D XYZ and recalibrate, iterate a couple of times to get it spot on. Finally calibrate the printer with the maximum points G33 A P12. M503 also prints those incremental smooth rod offsets so you can use them as factory defaults in configuration.h; a M502 will refer to those.
#define DELTA_SMOOTH_ROD_OFFSET_X 150.73
#define DELTA_SMOOTH_ROD_OFFSET_Y 149.25
#define DELTA_SMOOTH_ROD_OFFSET_Z 149.28
M212 sets the Z-offset to the probe
M212 Z(Z-offset probe)
M320 enable auto-level
M321 disable auto-level
M322 reset auto-level
M665 and M66 are the rest of the Delta geometry:
M665 R(delta Radius) D(Diagonal rod) S(Segments per seconds)
M666 X Y Z(end-stops)

The sensor does not have a polarity; and since you have a temp reading it is working. What board do you have and where did you connect your heat-bed onto?

What motherboard? Which connector did you use?

You need to connect the heat-bed power leads (black and red) to the green connector 'heated bed hot line', and the power supply needs to be connected at power + and power -

That did it! Thank-you again!!
Ok, now only a few more non-technical questions:
1. I put my glass plate over top of my aluminum heat bed, but which side do you guys have facing up? The smooth side or the brushed side? I would think the brushed side so the print has something to stick to.
2. My printer also came with three aluminum heat sinks (see picture), but the instructions don't refer to them going anywhere. What are they used for?
3. There's a value on the printers LCD screen Fr (see picture). When I turn the knob this goes up or down from 100%. What does this actually do?
Thanks again for all your help here!

I have read about people printing on frosted side and the plastic sticks so well, the piece takes chunks of glass with it when finally removed
Heatsinks... there's a jpg on the sd card... also attached
FR is feedrate, the speed of the filament extrusion motor... never used the LCD to control this so can't comment on whether is actually works...

Feedrate is the printing speed (Flowrate is the extruder speed); and yes it works if you want to speed up or slow down the print from the LCD.
Heatsinks: for the SKM Base you require 5 of them

This can not be resolved by tower corrections but needs to be addressed by improving the hardware (I've ordered some springs for that).
