Re: Melzi V2 Board question - 4 months ago
No, it's gone onto the back burner and I'm now trying to get to grips with an Arduino Uno and a CNC shield. With that, I've got motion but can't get the limit switches and / or homing to work - but at least I can communicate with it!by metamargatsni - General
Re: Melzi V2 Board question - 5 months ago
Thanks, I wasn't aware of FTDIGate so will do some reading, but I expect my board to be genuine and not affected. I already own a 3D printer (Creality Ender 3 and 5), a laser engraver (Ortur LM2) and a 3018 CNC engraver, so I'm well aware of drivers, CH340, COM ports, baud rates and other such settings. When I plug the boar din, it is recognised as a COM port and I've tried baud rates from 9600by metamargatsni - General

Communicating with the board is currently what I'm trying to do and can't - anything further (loading Marlin etc) is a potential next step, but if I can't communicate with it, everything else is pointless.by metamargatsni - General
Melzi V2 Board question - 5 months ago
Hi, I'm a new user so not sure if I've posted this in the correct section - sorry if it's in the wrong one! I wasn't sure where it should go so General it is I have an old RepRap printer that I obtained about a year ago - it was in pieces when I got it. I believe it is / was a RepRap Pro Mendel from about 2012. The PCB was connected to the servos and bed etc but has since been disassembled aby metamargatsni - General
