the example of an eleectronic diagram (the one with the red lines inbetween the posative wires is one).... just when the non electronic engineer is just getting his/her head around it bammo! bamboozled back to non understanding.(the maual f***ked um up)

the majority of people getting into the 3D printer feild are non starters, theyve live mundain hard worked and long houred jobs to make ends meet, it kills yu brain, so they finaly get enough cash to do something intresting, only to find they needed a degree to understand stuff.(thwarted).

i have a smoothie board, three drivers stopped at once, i tried as i may to get help but alas
Quote
munchit1
we parted at the 'oh its a lot of trouble' to just tell which board pins went to which driver pins (as the standard noterisations on your board have new names)...
Quote
munchit1
theres one strong indication theres summut up? 'we'll call it fibonderito 73x...do you know what one is? the art of not telling whilste babbling very many important words is the death of an econamy...fact.
Quote
munchit1
try this one, 34F96 goes to? obviously every one knows what one is?
Quote
munchit1
call the DIN a ermmm zebady prushous and neglenct to ever explain what one is?
Quote
munchit1
the axis rename was no problem, it was documented...and yes in reality would have only taken a few minutes to work out by trial and error..alas when you have to 'trial and error' a complete program? 73 other items and sub settings? it means the manual failed.(well it does to everyone else, or more to the point to every one else that it was written for!)
Quote
munchit1
i cant see how you can have the intalect and yet cant understand such a basic concept...the people reading the manual are finding it lacking and quite often confusing....i.e. the majority see fault in it.
Quote
munchit1
now i actualy thought the web site was fantastik..tbh it was a shed load more info than pritty much all the other guys....thats why i thought it a shame that at the end of all that reading it was quite ermmm... not that informative...from my point of veiw it was a shame that after all that effert ehhhh..yu know...some luvly woffle, thank for trying but..erghhh yu know....???)
Quote
munchit1
in reality it;s lego building leval stuff......IF you got the instructions... pin 1 goes to A4...woopy do that was hard? etc etc etc..
Quote
munchit1
now try this, F4 goes via the alternating fubar pin (no pin any where called that is there? no further info?...how can anyone posabley do it? unless you know the board, can build the bord and fully understand all the electronics. (i.e. the manual failed the user).
Quote
munchit1
the point is people buy the board from you because they themselves havent got 4 years to do the degree and a further 5 years of exsperience...
Quote
munchit1
.they buy the pre made board in the vain hope the instructions will enable them to 3D print...(it soort of instructs them that they are thick, when in fact it is the manual that failed..i.e. its lego levals of dificulty IF YOU HAVE THE CORRECT INSTRUCTIONS)
Quote
munchit1
so after talking round my hat in cuircles over and over again with hints, examples and metofors with exsplanasion you eather cannot or will not understand?
Quote
munchit1
ahhh yes talking me..very clever.
Quote
munchit1
i threw the smoothie board up on the shelf and marked it down to 'waisted 160 quid'...for good reason....
Quote
munchit1
you obviously dont need the money.
methodicaly this becomes aparent...over and over again.
Quote
munchit1
posative feedback, tecnicaly is NOT feedback that is posative! posative feed back in its simplest form is actualy getting 'accurate' feed back.
negative feed back is literally getting no feed back of inacurate feedback.
then we get to misconstrude 'accurate'... because after all the witty intelectual battle is far more important than anything factual....a bit like old women in the battle of the tongue.
Quote
munchit1
you got the money.. but you'll get no more.
cleva hu?
Quote
munchit1
how about just adding a 'begginers' set of instructions?
Quote
munchit1
this pin coralates to polulu pin ''whatever''
Quote
munchit1
when enabled with this command ''pin hi'' placed into 'this section' with or without * or dash etc.
Quote
munchit1
actual instructions dummified....with the actual answer and where to put it? the rest is purely an intresting to read.
Quote
munchit1
reason why.....the majoruty of users are people with no clue as to how, they see the web site (i say again it is a shedd load better than the other corps companies....apretiated) and the dream is alive! only neh, they waisted every penny and got a reminder akin to a wet fish slapped in their face...(a metafor for feeling ripped off and mortaly reminded).
Quote
munchit1
i actualy liked quadradics at school, i 'just saw them' they were fun...through uni they were everywhere in all sorts of disguises....matrices were boring, easy but boring... plugging a pin in to a number..yeh boring but whats worse is when the other end is not and will not be defined...it p****ses yu right off.

Maybe an 'Idiots guide to Smoothieboard' is what some folks are looking for.
Quote
twospoons
A nice well defined example of how to set up the hardware and a matching config file to go with it.

Smoothie is wonderfully configurable from my point of view (I'm an EE so its all pretty easy for me), but I guess there are plenty of people for whom having options just leads to confusion, as its not always obvious what the consequences of their choices will be.
