QuoteMIKEYMCC Just ordered and received the FLSUN 3D I3 kit, bit gutted as straight away I am missing the motors and the glass panel. Thats without going through with a fine tooth comb and counting each nut and bolt. Quick glance though it seems I have everything else. Can anyone remember what box the motors were in? OR rather what other parts they were inside with? Thanks for any help in advanby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
Quoterufinus Never mind, got my working, with eeprom enabled. Just have to figute out the z-offset for automatic leveling, and will be all set. Which leveling sensor do you have? I bought one (before actually buying the printer lol) but never had the time to install it. So can you share the type of sensor you have and how you mounted it?by fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
QuoteYnothna Mine actually shipped with 1.1 RC7 because it only arrived last week. I've made minor changes to some of the settings in the configuration.h and configuration_adv.h but nothing drastic. Marlin 1.1 RC7 Well, it is either we have different board designs, or your configurations is not complete. I tried your code and it didn't work but that got me encouraged to retry and configure itby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
gaspi, with my printer I simply put a screw in the hole on the top and that was enough to keep the tension of the x axis. For the SD card, mine works fine. What is the issue you are having with it?, did you update the firmware? Since it can be enabled and disabled from the configuration.by fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
Thank you Ynothna, I will try to update with you filesby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
Coping the configuration file won't work since there are to many changes to it. But what I did was to go through the file and adjust the settings based on what is there on the older file or based on what I know about my printer parts and connections. However, all I get is an empty LCD (it just lights up with nothing on the display) and no response to the slicer applications. But everything worksby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
Quoterufinus Regarding firmware, i guess, nobody bothered yet, since it works as it is. Never touch a running system, you know I will implement auto leveling with inductive sensor, if it works with current firmware. If not, then will bother to upgrade. My board is RAMPS 1.4 (Plus?). I agree, but sometimes it is worth it, checking the list of new features, improvements and bug fixes that haveby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
QuoteYnothna It's a RAMPS 1.4 but I don't think it's a plus. Yours is similar to the plus but with a different design, the original RAMPS 1.4 is not a full controller, it is just a shield board that you connect on top of an Arduino Mega board. Where as your board and mine (what is called 1.4plus) are redesigned by Chinese sellers to integrate the two boards together. It is a more efficient desigby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
Quoterufinus Here are my current improvements implemented: I have fixed the lead screw with bearing. Shall i upload STL of the bearing holder, in case someone is interested? Sure, would be great. But did adding the bearing improved the print quality? Since the Z axis doesn't move that fast so I don't thing it would wobble! Or am I wrong? Also no one answered me about updating the firmware onby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
QuoteYnothna Mine doesn't seem to have 2 connections, and the manual I have shows an adapter used to connect both motors to a single plug on the board. The only other motor plug I have is for another extruder. Which board do you have? is it the ramps 1.4plus? (this one has 3 ports for the Z, and they are all the same, one in the regular location under the Z marking, and two vertically placed onby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
So have you managed to update the firmware to the latest version? If yes can you give me your configuration files, since I tried all possible configurations for the motors setup and the lcd but it is not working!by fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
Yes, mine has the arduino bootloader, and I used the arduino IDE to flash the original firmware. I have flashed mine a number of times now and it works great. I had issues with it at first but after many trials it worked and I am not sure how. Try running your board from usb power, play with the reset jumper check the connections, try another machine, another operating system.... Those are the tby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
I am an expert in this field, but I don't see why not as long as you have a small flat surface at the other end to reflect the signals. However, I don't see the advantage of using them over a simple switch! I find the switch to be much cheaper, easier to diagnose and more flexible when your motor overshoots for some reason. But I am not an expert so I might be missing something here.by fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
Have anyone managed to update the firmware on these printers? Mine came with a version of marlin that is a little older than1.0.1 bit newer than 1.0beta. The source code that came with the printer compiles and works fine, so I tried to copy the changes (pinouts and LCD settings) from the configuration file to the latest marlin but it won't work and nothing shows on the LCD. I couldn't find the sby fadroid - Extruded Aluminum Frames
