Fantastic, I will go with that option and use pins 63 anbd 64. I will also go and have a thorough re-read of the other thread too. Many thanks again for the help and advice it is indeed appreciated.by Clydesdale - RAMPS Electronics
Many thanks for your reply, most definitely appreciated. I should have stated in my original post that I am indeed using an Arduino Mega and not a Re-Arm. Its the same Mega I have had since the day I built the printer and it has served me well. I have end stop switches I intend to continue using, and only have the one extruder. I use a breakout board to feed two Z steppers using the one driver.by Clydesdale - RAMPS Electronics
Hello all I was wondering if anyone could shed some light onto a question I have surrounding the use of a RAMPS 1.6+ board and TMC2209 drivers. I have been using my trusty RAMPS 1.4 board and the A4988 drivers for the better part of 9 years when my RAMPS board started to smoke. Given I already had the mega, I went and looked at the newest RAMPS board I could find. I found the 1.6+ which I now reby Clydesdale - RAMPS Electronics
Fully agree, though thats what the guide said. Finally got disheartened and decided to see what I could push through the steppers. Got the datasheet for the motors out and start checking on what I should be looking for using this guide. The motors that I have are as follows :- NEMA 17 Stepper Motor Model 17HS19-1684S - Specifications Frame size 42 x 42mm - NEMA 17 1.8 degree step anglby Clydesdale - Reprappers
Will have a look into upping the pot as soon as I am able to locate a datasheet. I have sourced all the items myself (mostly from the orient via a certain auction site) so will contact the supplier for the sheet. I followed one of the calibration guides that stated to connect the motors all up and to move the pot till the motors turn happily then add one quarter turn. Will definitely have a lby Clydesdale - Reprappers
Thanks for getting back to me. Sorry about the lag. some events of late came as a bolt from the blue and all took a back seat to that. Time on my hands again and looking into the clunk problem. I have found that I get a shift on the X and the Y axis still. Its not often ... about once on each axis a print. Just enough to make me want to eBay the printer and seek an alternate hobby.

Hi there Thank you for the pointer. I originally had my settings at #define DEFAULT_MAX_FEEDRATE {500, 500, 2, 45} #define DEFAULT_MAX_ACCELERATION {9000,9000,100,10000} #define DEFAULT_ACCELERATION 3000 #define DEFAULT_RETRACT_ACCELERATION 3000 which I canged to #define DEFAULT_MAX_FEEDRATE {500, 500, 2, 45} #define DEFAULT_MAX_ACCELERATIONby Clydesdale - Reprappers
Hi there, I'm interested to see if you ever came to a resolution to the Z axis sync issue ? did you find out what was at fault ? -Cby Clydesdale - Reprappers
Hi there folks First post and my first printer I have built. After a load of looking about I went for the Prusa i3. I have built it from scratch sourcing all the parts from across the planet so its not a kit. I have manged to get it all together and Im happy with the build rigidity and quality of the materials. Its a single Alu plate frame from a 6 mm sheet og aluminium. Im using an arduino megby Clydesdale - Reprappers
