Re: Azteeg x5 Mini v1.1 Serial Connection - 10 years ago
After some further testing, and looking at the config file per your recommendation, I got it working! J3 is a row of pins behind the reset button on the v1.1 board. This is where I have the USB to serial hardware adapter connected. Soon to be replaced by a Bluetooth serial module. In the config file, the following lines are what I looked at. # Serial communications configuration ( baud rate dby BPopilek - Controllers
Azteeg x5 Mini v1.1 Serial Connection - 10 years ago
Hello everyone. I have a quick question that maybe someone knows something about. Like the title states, I am using the Azteeg x5 Mini v1.1 controller board on a custom CoreXY printer. Everything is working perfectly if I print via the USB or SD card options. I want to add a serial bluetooth or maybe a WiFi module to my setup. I have found the Tx, Rx, & Ground pins at J3 on this board. I am tby BPopilek - Controllers
Re: Azteeg x5 mini wrong stepper direction - 10 years ago
I have read the manual, and when I change it to gamma_dir_pin 0.22!, nothing happens. Nothing in the sense that when I try to move the Z Axis, it doesn't. I can hear the stepper motor whine a bit, but that is all. In addition, once I try to move the Z axis, the X & Y refuse to move either until I power cycle it. The X & Y will again work, until I try to move Z. It's weird... Any thoughts?by BPopilek - Controllers
Azteeg x5 mini wrong stepper direction - 10 years ago
Hello all! I am building a custom 3D printer that I ordered as a kit from the creator. I have run into a problem though that I am hoping someone can help with. This printer uses the Azteeg x5 Mini controller board. I have everything hooked up and working, but the Z-Axis is moving in the wrong direction. If I switch the connector on the board, it works correctly. However, doing it this way meansby BPopilek - Controllers
Re: Azteeg X5 Mini Serial Connection Question - 10 years ago
Does anyone have any ideas? It's been 10 days since I posted this with 150 views, but no replies. I have tried searching elsewhere, but still cannot find out if there are serial pins accessible, or even if there are traces or pads that I can tap into to achieve this. Thank you.by BPopilek - Controllers
Azteeg X5 Mini Serial Connection Question - 10 years ago
Hello all. I am getting a new custom 3D printer delivered this weekend, and I'm hoping that someone may have the info that I am looking for. This new printer features the Azteeg X5 Mini controller board, whereas my old 3D printer had a RAMPS board. On the RAMPS board, I was able to connect up a bluetooth serial module to enable wireless printing. What I am trying to find out is if there are anyby BPopilek - Controllers

Here is the Configuration.H setup that I am using. It is plain stock, with the exception of the LCD enable line uncommented, and the motherboard set to 33. Let me know if you spot anything else I am missing. Thanks! #ifndef CONFIGURATION_H #define CONFIGURATION_H #include "boards.h" // This configuration file contains the basic settings. // Advanced settings can be found in Configuration_adv.hby BPopilek - RAMPS Electronics
Re: RAMPS 1.4 & 128x64 LCD Help Needed - 11 years ago
Ok, I must be missing something! I download the latest Marlin firmware v1.0.2 from HERE, and then uncommented line #define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_FULL_GRAPHIC_SMART_CONTROLLER. I have also made sure that I have U8glib v1.17 installed in the libraries folder of my Arduino v1.0.6 software. It does show up when I go under libraries on the drop down menu. Also, I made sure I downloaded the Arduino version oby BPopilek - RAMPS Electronics
Re: RAMPS 1.4 & 128x64 LCD Help Needed - 11 years ago
Ok, my Marlin firmware was missing that line all together. Adding it in did nothing. I downloaded the newest and untouched version of Marlin for my second test. It had the line that I uncommented, and then installed the U8glib library. Now it just turns on with the blue backlight and no sound. Not sure what the problem is still. With Repetier firmware, the lcd fires right up and works. I would prby BPopilek - RAMPS Electronics
RAMPS 1.4 & 128x64 LCD Help Needed - 11 years ago
Hello all, I am looking for a little help. Here is a little background information. I originally purchased a QUBD TwoUp 3D printer, and have since bought a custom upgrade kit to greatly improve the printer. The kit is called the 3uP, and details about it can be found HERE. I recently decided that I wanted to upgrade the electronics from the stock/generic Printrboard, to a Arduino Mega with a RAMby BPopilek - RAMPS Electronics
