  • seems to be mismatch anywhere in my merging. I´ll start fresh one...can´t find what happened
  • tried to merge the changes in , get error message exit status 1 'UI_STATUS_UPD_F' was not declared in this scope ??
  • Think Status message is enough , and as host is already blocking we could add this to gcode::keepAlive()may be as warning message as i added in my test.  so i think it´s clearly visible for everyone and also working with existing host software
  • Ok, that explains why i couldnt see anything.So may be it would be useful to have it as you wrote  and additional on Display for the case of SD printing
  • https://www.repetier.com/tutorials/
  • Just a question regarding Door: shouldn´t there be a message when door open? as far as i understand  GCode::keepAlive should send a message (GCodeSource::printAllFLN(PSTR("busy:door open"));) but i cannot see ?? i use Repetier Host 1.6.2 so tha…
  • It´s quite simple it´s just during power up and depends on the driver electronics, not on laser itself. switch off delay goes ->0 as its maximum buffered by small capacitor. so laser images are often done adjusting brightness via moving speed. …
  • please set ( in drivers.cpp  ) bool LaserDriver::firstMove = true; so we catch warmup also after homing. (needed if we home machine and start with G1) answered your last comments in previous 2 posts , what do you think about? may be youáre intere…
  • ok, as i saw its same for processGcode  , nice :-)  makes Custom events even more attractive
  • OK, so if i have M48 in custom code  it will execute it and not the M48 in Commands::processMCode(GCode *com) ?
  • Quote: I see now you have replaced the extruder/bed place with Xw/Yw/Zw (why w?) Might be an idea to have both on startscreen and G92 modded everywhere as this is more helpfull after calibration. BTW, the "w"  is for work coordinates  .
  • Yes, thats what i wanted to have , left side G92 coords and right side machine coordinates. just like "real" cnc machines mostly have. that´s why i added %x5-7. and you´re right door implementation is mostly point of view, so what about something l…
  • may be you misunderstood, so may be you find the time to take a look at the UIDisplay::refreshPage()  you downloaded from my site.that works fine and coords are shown as wanted.even Z is important as in CNC often workpiece height is set to 0.(when m…
  • Did you also take a look at the Display regarding workpiece coords(including G92 Offsets) for cnc and laserinstead of temperatures?.i introduced 3 placeholders, translations etc. are done.would be nice to have it implemented as i can´t manipulate UI…
  • found bug with delay : (twice in motion.cpp) #if LASER_WARMUP_TIME > 0 && SUPPORT_LASER             if(cur->dir)             {                     //LaserDriver::changeIntensity(cur->secondSpeed); //doesn´t work this way          …
  • So i found time to do some tests in breadboard setup. Laser Warmup is not working as it should, it works as delay, moves and laser start at same time. (just set warmup time to 1000 , so you can see that clearly) Door " works" if you mean disabling…
  • Simple reason for second door handler is if safety door is for example just a cover with a switch on Laser Toolhead and has nothing to do with machine housing. it´s let´s say for more professional use as it´s a safety switch assigned to laser , not…
  • adressing is ok , so i know that from work with the mcp23017.still fighting with datasheet of pca9685, seems to need Special initialisation.so as i just want to add some external pwm´s i think i´ll Switch over to TLC5947 and Software spi as it´s fas…
  • Might be too heavy on AVR , as it´s a threaded rod driven machine.if you want high Speed on G0 moves you should change to DUE,but playing around with step adjustment (Think quarter step  is ok for that)will give a compromise between Speed/Resolution…
  • I know  and both are not working. Anyway ,i was just playing around, don´t know if i find the time to search the error
  • what happens if you increase motor current? set to (65,65,65,65,65)
  • OK,compiles now,works on mega/ramps but not running on DUE, even can´t get original u8glib running on due. Think they are using their own I2C routines ? 3.3V is not the problem (tried with level shifter from 5 ->3.3 on Mega and works) Any idea fr…
  • sorry,took the wrong word , i meant centrifugal pump (whats used in fishtanks).
  • No, i mean Connection from +5V RAMPS to +5V Arduino.so if you supply external +5V to ramps it will be connected to arduino +5.IF YOU DID NOT cut this Connection your external +5 also goes to arduino and if it´s higher than arduinos 5V my mention fro…
  • SONIC300077 said: Yes, I've used! but such motors more than 2 months are not working, burn! stepper motor is very dependable What about the tubes in peristaltic pump ? also the stepper motor are more "reliable" keep in mind they ha…
  • Checked it out and works fine, so i saw you indicated some Action Nubers as "reserved"// 1500-1699 reserved for custom Actions so i think we should reserve some numbers for repeatable Actions also(Number range below 1000) for use in Custom Events.so…
  • as you say : When we unplug the motor that works and plug it into the one of the steppers that werent working they start to work. it seems Drivers are ok. so may be Connection from Motor to connector is loose.(can be in loose in  connector as connec…
  • i´ll check schematics and try to answer this question this evening, just one question , did you cut the pattern for supplying external 5V?, i mean 5 V Connection from ramps to Mega
  • OK Marco so you gave the answer for the wrong readings yourself.Arduino Mega in standard Setup takes Reference Voltage from +5 so in your case 4.7V.But your Voltage divider with the Thermistor is working on +5.0Vthat doesn´t match and will return er…
  • Hi Marco, Arduino 5V is also Reference Voltage for the ADC. As Thermistor is used in Voltage divider with 4K7 Resistor on Ramps it shouldn´t matter if 5V is only 4.7 V. Tolerance of 4K7 resistor is the bigger issue. Best regards RAyWB
