Thanks Chris. Nice to see repetier shown. Two things. First, using EEPROM makes it a lot easier to tweek many ( but not all ) settings. The second is that when you edit the configuration.h on your computer ( not using the web tool) you SHOULD change both the setting you want (in the first half) AND there is a second copy off it in the second half. This is what is used by the web tool. So for the changes you made ( for example ), will not show up if you load up your configuration.h into the tool.

Thanks for the video and explaining how to install Repitier. This is probably a tough question. What are the advantages and disadvantages to using one firmware over another? Do any have features that others don't currently have?

@ChrisRiley

5 жыл бұрын

You're right, very tough question. In my opinion, Marlin is currently the most developed feature wise. If I had to choose, I would stay with Marlin.

and BTW, the "Modify acceleration with increasing z position" feature is quite useful when you have a problems with the Z axis. This feature will proportionally decrease the acceleration values with the Z position: Starting from Z=0 with 100% Accel. to the Zmax position with X% reduction defined in the firmware. Yes, you will have longer print time but you could increase the "safety factor" of the print job

How big is the final file ? lets just say i wanted to install this on a Ender 3 will it fit ? will the board take it ? Just asking as i'm in the middle of building a new printer, i have this board hanging around and would like to test printer before i chose its new board. I would test but at sea at the moment and would like to fix the file hear, and test soon as i get home

i would use the config page to change settings the settings are written 2 places, where you would normally see it and then at the very end of the file using the config tool/page makes sure that it's all in sync and that you have the latest settings should you come back after a few months

thank you, sir for testing Repetier! I told you so ;) But i have a dilemma: why are all building Cartesian core XZ printers with Z min? What if you have a failed print @ a certain Z? how can i resume/save the print if i can't home the printer? I think is just stupid. I've just build-ed the second Cartesian printer core XZ (Prusa style) with Xmin, Ymin , Zmax homing directions. the probe is on Zmin and i can save any failed print, beeing able to home the printer with tha partial part on the bed.

I am not sure why this became such common place. I have seen it the other way around, but not often.

I have run into an issue when it comes to Marlin firmware, Slic3r and Cura when it comes to configuring the offset, in a dual extruder system. You can set this offset in the firmware or in the slicer. My experience seems to indicate that it is always best to handle this in the slicer as this seems to affect the tool change code. Do you have any thoughts on this?

I have struggled working with the Arduino IDE as I find it difficult to sort through all the code. Repitier's configuration tool seems much easier to use. Is this a good enough reason to upgrade? I have an ender 3 with a the original meltzi board and considering new mainboards for the following reasons. Number one is the lack of memory space. I already lost the sd card functionality by adding bltouch and now I want to add a filament runout sensor and think this is going to be a real issue. I am considering the MKS gen l, duet maestro and recently the SKR 1.3. I am great with hardware and all that requires (soldering wiring crimping) but working in the Arduino ide is just beyond my limited brain capacity. Any suggestions?

@@Johnfishtwo11 The configuration tool does help a lot, but I don't think it covers enough features to give you the best results possible. You would still have to end up tweaking the code.
