  • I think that is the answer to your question: http://forum.repetier.com/discussion/1808/a-guide-to-add-a-simple-menu The example shows exactly the menu you need.
  • The issue is due to a bug in old bootloader. It is actually an Arduino boot issue for many boards. The bootloader does not disable watchdog timer if it was enabled by a firmware. This means that on some boards/MCUs even hardware reset does not stop …
  • Oh no, that's not easy. Unlike LCD pins, the analog pin MUST be defined on the Configuration.h file level due to code organization. That means that it may either be hidden from user when P802M selected, or may be predefined to 1 only for this contro…
  • I guess I answered to another question. The tool provides the way to define the analog pin, but it does not enforce that. I agree, we can define it in the code instead of configuration for P802M similar to LCD pins. Maybe I should add some patch for…
  • It does if you choose a correct controller ZONESTAR_P802M.... in the end of the list of web config tool. Then you'll see the analog pin number for the ADC. But I recommend to use my sample config to start from. It is avaliable here: https://github.c…
  • It seems that autoleveling and z-probing needs serious attention. I have a list of issues after I added an active Z-probe. I will post them in a separate thread or maybe better to the github for consideration. And yes, I confirm that there are issu…
  • Unfair play from them, sure. Still, if we have enough of technical info about hardware, and if we do not expect to 'plug and print', then they offer inexpensive hardware that can be used with any firmware we like. So it depends on the level of suppo…
  • Yes, no notifications from this forum. There is nothing better than own experience. I have now working Z-probe with servo. I confirm that there is no sense to have Z-min with Z-probe, so the pin can be reused or converted to Z-max. Also I found that…
  • Real FTDI driver checks the FTDI chip and if finds that is fake (not original one), it flashes something into the FTDI fake chip nvram (VID/PID=0/0). Then the same driver does not recognize that chip and cannot be used to revert it back without some…
  • I remember I had some issues with flashing the firmware using the supplied bootloader in such printer. That's why I recommended to update bootloader first using ISP programmer (I used USBasp) from Arduino environment. After that I have never had any…
  • In this case I would try to connect that LCD using supplied cable to any Arduino board, load example code and see if that LCD is faulty, and/or bad cables, and/or they need shielding. Then depending on results you may find a solution. Actually, I di…
  • Update: I have mechanical Z-probe working now. It uses one GPIO for probe, another one GPIO for servo control. From my recent experience, it makes no real sense to have both Z-min and Z-probe in such config. I wasted some time trying to understand w…
  • If you are ok to do some soldering, there is a way to have 5 free GPIO pins on that printer. I just modded my printer and created a pull request to include that feature into the software (it uses shift register to drive LCD pins, so only 2 pins are …
  • Thank you for very fast merging it into the main repository. My printer now runs with the code built from your git with my config (also provided in the boards/ folder of official repository for those who concerned). It seems to work great, here is a…
  • As said above, there is another thread which discusses the firmware for this printer:http://forum.repetier.com/discussion/1105/melzi-v2-0-with-lcd2004-and-5-keys Now there is a source code which works with this printer and keypad and is based on cu…
  • Hi guys, the same printer (Zonestar P802M),  the same issue (no source), the same wish (use newest firmware and configure features). So I stepped in and reworked the source you published here. It is now based on the top of official master branch and…
