A simple guide to configure your Repetier Firmware. Repetier-Firmware configuration tool: www.repetier.com/firmware/v10... Arduino IDE www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software?
I did play around with the values and even tried the ones on Anthony Jordan's blog here. He suggested the values are: Marlin Repetier Function M280 P0 S10 M340 P0 S648 Pin Down M280 P0 S90 M340 P0 S1472 Pin Up M280 P0 S120 M340 P0 S1782 Self Test: Pin Up/Down continuously until another command is received. M280 P0 S160 M340 P0 S2194 Release Alarm
Hi, most printable mounts will have a set of offset measurements to use for the XYZ (usually in the filename) if making your own mount it will be a case of turning it in using the Z probe hight in the EEPROM of the printer till you have the right first layer.
A verry nice Video Thank You BUT i gote some Problems. can you help me? Meanwhile Repetier 1.0.3 is released. First i have to manually comment out "#define Z_PROBE_USE_MEDIAN" in configuration.h because the Sketch will not compile When i send one of the following commands i get a Error: unknown Command: M280 P0 S10 ; pushes the pin down M280 P0 S90 ; pulls the pin up M280 P0 S120 ; Self test - keeps going until you do pin up/down or release alarm M280 P0 S160 ; Release alarm The following Commands woks propper, when they mannually sended and the Sensor Pin moves. M340 P0 S700 M340 P0 S1500 But the logic state of the 2-Pin Connector (black/white Cable) seems not to change, only unplugging change the state IN A TEST ENVIROMENT with MKS GEN 1.4: ONLY THE BL-TOUCH IS CONNECTED Can you Explain me why
Yes, in theory, you should be able to use one of the unused pins on the wifi module to get a BLTouch working, actually working on this at the moment, (though really need to edit my first review and upload it this week) think the firmware may be an issue as its closed source but will be doing some followup guides on the Lotmaxx so grabbed a second mainboard to play about with (its a MKS Robin Nano rebranded for Lotmaxx, and there is a MKS Robin Nano board V1.2 mainboard that has a dedicated set of headers for the BLTouch, so will be testing that board out with stock Marlin and a BLTouch too as its only about $15 for the V1.2 mainboard, could be worth switching boards to get auto bed leveling and open source Marlin firmware).
Pigeon Print please do share! I’ll be following closely. I didn’t even know our current board had a WiFi module. I’d be very interested in getting it worked by- my bed is super warped.
@@NerdsWithFriends Well its got the connectors to receive a wifi module, the module itself is around $8 and can be set up quite easily and handy if you just want to send print from Cura to the printer, will have some info on setting it up in the video this is the module it excepts www.aliexpress.com/item/32816882694.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.6a1d4c4de7WqU9 to be honest not sure why Lotmaxx don't shout more about some of the features, I opened it up expecting to find really cheap components and everything built down to the lowest cost, but it has a quality mainboard and a high-end power supply and unlike most, they even grounded the enclosure and frame, so really a safe bit of kit too for children around it, auto bed leveling is the only big negative, but will have some options sorted for that soon!
I've done everything like you in tutorial but after G32 S2 or chosing bed leveling on printer screen my printer does autoleveling but its resets itself after test.
Hey Jakub, when you say it resets itself, do you mean it downs down and restarts, or do you mean it resets itself to the home position? if the first one, sound like it could be an electrical issue, is the connector on the BLTouch seated correctly or lose connection on the solder pads if older or clone model (sorry for the delay in getting back to you!)
I was able to follow along with all the steps. However, After I opened ARDUINO I did not have the Port COM3 as a choice. Can you help me resolve this problem. Thank you
Hello, the COM port number will depend on lots of thing like the USB port on your computer, to find out what COM port Number the Arduino is on just open 'Device Manager' and plug it in and look at the 'Ports' and it should appear there with a COM number like COM5 Or COM4
Hope you can help me, im sending M340 P0 S700 and terminal says unknown command after fishing with your settings. Probe does turn on, does in/out at startup an is solid red on standby. What am i missing here?
@@ArielYahni have you tried adjusting the black screw on top of the BLTouch, raising it up a half turn and testing the M340 P0 S700 command till it lowers the pin?
@@PigeonPrint No luck with that either, tried a couple other rotations also. Here is my status, boot the printer the pin will lower and rise and keep the LED red. Manually pulling the pin will turn off the LED.
I have successfully setup this feature and it works fine but looks like it does not work while printing. Because after print starts z motor does not work while the same table with marlin moves according to z correction. What is the idea of this bed leveling in repetier if it does not do corrections while ptinting?
@@PigeonPrint When you enable Servo support I note it automatically then enables Servo Pin as D11 - yet I found instructions for the BLtouch that says to put the 3 pin cable on Zmax and the 2 pin cable on Zmin - for me that is then D34 for the Zmax pin (Ramps FD) - so should that mean I change the Servo pin to D34? Further to this I am going to use Motors for Bed levelling - I have 3 Zscrews for Z axis - just wondering if you know if that means I put them as the "Extra Motors" in the repetier config... as on the repetier Page it states "For this to work you must define below the coordinates where the bed is fixed. Points 2 and 3 get controlled by the motor driver 1 and 2 defined below." but the only bit that seems to be "defined below" is the "Extra Motors" section, which is Outside of the Z-Probe section... Great vid by the way - helped me so far with a few little holes I was seeing in config.
@@proxlamuz4591 I'm sorry to say I really can't recall - in fact I even do know that I never ended up using the BL Touch in the end, I think I just found configuring it too hard in my non standard setup. Subsequent to all of that my Large format build is not functional for well over a year and I ended up getting a Creality CR-10S5 off the shelf to replace it...and even that I haven't used for a while - just far too busy. If I ever get a chance in the off-season I might dig around in some code and see if I can recall what I ALMOST had working!
