cheers ian better weather coming your way sat!!!! cheers, have swapped letter and no probs so far gonna build it all up now and hopfully.................. cheers.by gbot - General
thanks mccoyn, It worked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1>< I understand, id have been weeks finding that firware was expecting a p and not an s, Thanks so much, not only does it work but I have a much better understanding of how the code is working. Ill try your 5g code later. Cheers again.by gbot - General
Cheers Ian I'll give that a try! O.k. Tried and got this error o.data.temptable+0x0): multiple definition of `temptable' C:\DOCUME~1\GRAHAM~2.24D\LOCALS~1\Temp\build4622668242942025243.tmp\ThermoplastExtruder\ThermoplastExtruder.cpp.o.data.temptable+0x0): first defined here looked in this folder and nothing there. I downloaded all 8 files and renamed 4 of them to .h extensions and put themby gbot - General
here is that init file to, I cant compite the sketch without it. Graham.by gbot - General
Hi Ian I didnt use this... I did use the arduino firmware from here v1.3 strangly it seems in order to work there is also a file called init.pde this isntn mentioned in the instructions which are here Cheers.by gbot - General
Thanks Nophead!!!! I think so, when I send M105 I get T25 back which is about room temperature. If I force the heater on the temp climbs and as I hit M105 again I get readings back that seem about right T100 T150 T200 etc So the temp data is arriving back O.k. Plus on the test software ian suggested which uses the temp sensor, all seems fine. There was a couple of lines in the firmware i neeby gbot - General
Thanks Ian Thats been loads of help..... Using Gen 2 electronics on a ard duemillanove. Using v 0018 arduino software. Have a dc motor not a stepper on the extruder. extruder is running pwm driver v 1.1 Loaded the test software like you suggested and all worked as expected. Fans, temp, dc motor, no problem. So looks like all hardware is fine. even tried checking if the pin went high withby gbot - General
Ian, thanks so much. Managed to eliminate loads of possible problems.... Tried the manual input and have managed to switch fan on and off using M106 and M107 M105 pulls the temperature fine and get temp in celcious when I type M104 S100 for example I get "ok" back on the debugger, but the heater doesnt come on. Should it? I have tested the pin works by changing the pin assignment of the faby gbot - General
Hi all have made great progess with darwin, can send gcode and get motors to operate. prob is cant get heater to switch on usind arduino duemilanove and v 0018 software also running reprap console. Heater is tested... check PWM Driver works.. check if I run a Gcode generated from an stl I expected the heater to fire up but it doesn't. here is the start of the code.............

Oh, are we saying the host software has major problems and doesnt work? Thats a shame cos the user interface is pretty good. Im getting the same error all the time......... Productionexception:java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException im sure I have had the host software working in the past but maybe I imagined it. If anyone know how to fix would be great.

Hi Stephen, did you ever get the problem resolved? Im having the same issue, and not really sure where to start. Problem could be with drawing but suspect its a setting. cheers graham.by gbot - RepRap Host
thanks jump-ing............. looks like a good dose of sarcasm did the trick, felt a wally when I re-read my post. looked over it all this morning and...................... it seems you do need the init file in the sketch as this sets many of the pins, despite this not being mentioned in the instructions. I was attaching my mates arduino to a windows pc that was running reprap console thisby gbot - Firmware - mainstream and related support
Oh Please help. am installing the gen 2 firmware on arduino 0018 and am following the instructions below.................... Program the Arduino or Sanguino to talk G Code Download all the files at: into a directory called GCode_Interpreter. Make sure you have an up-to-date Arduino IDE. I'm using Arduino 0015, and that works fine. Copy the files extruder.h.dist, parameters.h.dist andby gbot - Firmware - mainstream and related support
