I have an Anet A8 and I am tired of Octoprint telling me about its fire-danger firmware AND I am putting an E3Dv6 and geared extruder on it, so the old F/W must go.
So.
I have pulled over the latest Marlin (1.1.8) and am using the A8 configuration files. But I have some questions.
1) Will the default F/W config do something odd/bad/destructive if I don't have any bed leveling sensor on my printer?
2) Does the A8 board really have digipots?
3) Do the Marlin Anet A8 configuration files deal with the X home being off the actual build plate like the Anet A8 firmware does?
I really want to change out this clunky firmware, but it works well enough that I don't want to make the printer unusable by installing the Marlin version without putting in tweaks that really need put in. So, any help from those that have done this will be really appreciated.
Thanks,
DLC
