Re: My adventures with Prusa I3 Aluminum
*Update* Filament detector is working, and the printer has been upgraded to the latest Marlin firmware, version 1.1.9, which I have attached. Marlin-1.1.9_GT2560-RevA+.zip Note that Configuration.h and pins_GT2560_REV_A.h have been extensively modified. To recap; what I did for the filament sensor w...

Re: i3 Aluminium with Sanguinololu and Marlin V.1.1.9 - Help needed
When you have a working kinda Up To date Marlin FW, even for a GT2560, it would be nice if you could share it with us. Sorry, I don't check the forum as often as I should. I am attaching a copy of the 1.1.8 Marlin FW configured to work with my machine. It has a BL-Touch bed leveler, a filament sens...

I couldn't get anywhere flashing firmware on the sanguinololu board, so I replaced it with the GT2560 board.

Re: My adventures with Prusa I3 Aluminum
@Flintlocke, I agree. The original Snaguinololu board worked, but that was about all that could be said for it. Changing the firmware was my first hurdle, as I recall. I was unsuccessful, LOL. Aside from the cheap extruder and the sub-par Z-axis screw assemblies, it is a solid little printer for the...

Re: Filament detector with GT2560 board.
@ Ikn369330,
I'm sorry I didn't see this earlier; did you get this sorted? I had desolder the 2-pin X-max socket on the motherboard, and solder in a 3-pin socket.
I made up a drawing to label the connectors on the board...

Re: Problem with Auto Leveling Sensor
@Alienmoon, Fair enough. Maybe I misunderstood you, but when you say, and I quote: "I'm a little disheartened if I'm honest, I see people asking for help and many of the posts have either been ignored or not answered in a way that'll help people get the tasks done, Swiftly and Correctly."........tha...

Re: 3D touch issues - T8 3D Printer 8mm Lead Screw Rod Z Axis
Alienmoon, Those are the 4-lead screws referenced in the post above. Assuming you have a 1.8 degree stepper motor {200 steps per revolution} and 1/16 microstepping set on the driver (most printers are like this), you need to set it at 400 steps/mm. IE: 200 steps/Rev X 16 pulses per step = 3200 pulse...

Re: 3D touch issues - T8 3D Printer 8mm Lead Screw Rod Z Axis
The correct setting for the 4-lead T8 screws I have is 400 steps/mm. 1600 woud be the setting for a standard T8 acme threaded rod, but usually the ones you find are the 4-lead ones, where each revolution of the rod raises the nut 8 mm, vs. the 2 mm of a standard rod. Confusing, I know.

Re: Problem with Auto Leveling Sensor
Alienmoon, I don't mean to be rude, but it looks like what you are looking for is something you are not going to find on a forum of volunteers. You need something like a paid support system, not a forum. No one here or on any forum I have seen is going to hold hands or do your work for you. There is...
