Klipper firmware

Post by killvearn » Mon Jan 07, 2019 7:42 pm

I'm currently using Klipper with my A10 (GT2560 Rev. 3). Here's my printer.cfg with the pin configured if someone needs it. Just remove the BLTOUCH part if you don't have it.

Hi, killvearn. Have you some links to klipper fw upload on A10? It's simple like Marlin with Adruino IDE, or need somethingh else?

Hi, it's a whole different kind of firmware. It uses a raspberry pi with octoprint to process the gcode and uploads a micro-firmware on the board, making it just an interface between the raspberry and the motors.
It allows faster speed and 32-bit like functionality on a 8 or 16 bit board.
Here's a video explaining it, you can use my config for the pinout.
Keep in mind that I'm using tmc2208 drivers so all the stepper logics are inverted, so if you're using the default drivers you must invert all the logic on the motor sections.

Currently using it at 60 to 80 mm/s with pressure advance enabled and auto bed leveling.

Thank You very much for opening my eyes. I'm modify your printer.cfg file for my A10M with BlTouch copy. Klipper is far better firmware than Marlin. My settings is in attachments for Cura and for Klipper.

Hello,

---Problem already solved, there has been an cold soldered pin at the extension board :/ ----


I´ve got some problems with you config running klipper. Do i have to disconnect the normal z endstop? If i disconnect it even the commands like "BLTOUCH_DEBUG COMMAND=pin_down" doesn´t work. If i don´t disconnet the old endstop, QUERY_PROBE allways says it´s open. When i try to run G28 x and y home the normal way, but then it says "BLTouch failed to verify sensor state".
Do you know what could help me?

I have z-stop disconnected too. Try invert this settings: pin_up_reports_not_triggered: False
pin_up_touch_mode_reports_triggered: False
.... maybe this settings usable on cloned versions of bl-touch sensor. I have 3d-touch clone from Geeetech and have occasionally problem with bl-touch in next print. First print after clean Klipper start was error free.
