Thank you for this and your other SGEN L tutorials. Having a complete step-by-step guide saved me from a ton of research. And in case someone else runs into the problem that the board doesn't accept the firmware.bin file and keeps rapidly flashing the LEDs in the corner - for me it was a SD card issue, even though the card passed any testing software I threw at it. Only after replacing it firmware.cur appeared.

Thanks for the great video guide! Just what I needed for such a mysterious main board.

MkS Gen L is loaded via USB port for firmware and via a com connection if you wish to print via port. If you add an LCD there is a SD card mode in Marlin firmware that needs to be set.

Maybe you cover this in another video but where do you install all the fans? I only see two slots here and the printers always have 3 minimum. The board fan, the hotend cooling fan and the print fans. I cant get them to work as it should, with me always having to turn on the hotend fan when it should be always on.

I tried to hook up a 12V layer fan to the relay using pin 5. Does not work !! I purchased a 24V fan and connected directly to D9 and defined it on FANMUX0_PIN 9. Also does not work.

How Do i connect this board with Anet A8 machine

@Bajicoy

4 жыл бұрын

For stepper drivers, look up a skr1.3 stepper driver install guide for your respective A4988 or other drivers and use the same jumper pattern. You'll need to either create a splice or jumper between the two Z motors or set E1 to be your second Z motor in the marlin firmware. Wire Motors X, Y, Z, and E to their respective connectors as shown in the video. Next connect X, Y, Z endstops to the min endstops. After that, I recommend using a new LCD because the standard A8 LCD does not have a SD card reader. Wire the new LCD to EXP 1 and 2. The discount 2004 LCD or full graphic LCD are common and affordable choices. I am aware some printers can use the same sd card that carries their firmware for also storing g-code but I cannot confirm this functionality with SGen L yet. Then, connect the extruder and heated bed to HEO0 and H-Bed with their respective thermistors to the ports TH1 and TB as shown in the video. The heat sink fan probably should go to the constant voltage port but you can use the second hot end screw terminals as well if you can find the setting in firmware. The blower fan can be connected to the fan connector beside the hotend screw terminals. Finally connect power as shown in the video and program the board with the micro sd card.

hey man I have the 2.0 ver of this board with tcm 2209 uart drivers and can not get it to work with marlin. The thing is, it do not compile the software.

Hi, I recently got one of these and I am having alot of trouble uploading to the MKS SGEN. I copied the BIN file from the directory you showed and loaded it to my board, but every time I plug in the MKS I get a USB device not recognized error (and nothing shows up in my COM port entries), though in the Universal Serial Bus Devices section, I see a Marlin USB device. The board repeatedly resets (the light signals just go back and fourth and I keep hearing the USB notification sound), leading me to believe the download from the SD card failed. I believe its a driver issue, and I tried uninstalling the current driver by uninstalling the device via device manager, but every time I try to manually select the driver I downloaded from the gitHub library, it says I already have the best drivers downloaded. It should be noted that when I first got the board, it registered as a smoothieware device, but I want it configured as Marlin so I used Zadig to download the winusb drivers. I assume I did it wrong though.

Edward Braiman hi , I’m change settings of board on two file configuration, I’m disconnect tft , insert sd , restart ... ok , the firmware is inside (I’m not sure ) but , power off , connect tft , remove sd , restart... but with tft nothing .... set same speed of port com , please , help me ... after , is possible use the printer only with board and tft , or is necessary 12864 display ??

I copied your instructions perfectly and did so about 5 times (I feel like I am going crazy) pastebin.com/mj7sd4Ss all the other research I have done is saying the board wants to be in a Mega2560 environment.

What's the motherboard? The printer is the shape driven by motherboard.
