Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

good afternoon. having a few issues again lol im sure this will go on for a while. lcd works so thats a plus. arms still wont manu move. i uploaded the eeprom clear file. didnt change anything thanks

Your symptoms are quite interesting. I'm not sure what is going on. I just uploaded the firmware I built onto a spare RAMPS board I had and plugged in my LCD. The LCD works, I don't have any motor drivers to test if the motors work, but all the EEPROM variables work fine. I noticed I accidentally switched the delta arm length and horizontal radius on the config, so I'm uploading a new version of the firmware. I also changed the EEPROM set to set 2, maybe it might properly write the EEPROM variables this time.
Showing the settings I used to upload to the board, and confirming EEPROM is working.

hi all got somehwere this morning.
went through all the wiring and the person who build it messed it all up and did it all wrong ! (HOW SO, WHO KNOWS) so after many hours rewired it and got it all going
extruder and bed are working fine now.
so whats next ? i was trying to calibrate the arms as shown on the videos.......... seem to be hitting a brick wall again. i home all and nothing happenes. are the videos on youtube etc ok for this of is there still some mods i need to do

thanks

Considering the condition of the arms when you got it, do you mind if I take a few hours to work on my "surprised" face on hearing he borked the wiring too?

Are you able to move the axes individually?

g.

yes i can move them all on their own. althou on the log screen on rep host
it keep slisting

and so on and so on lol

Im betting the endstops are wired NO. Send M119 and it should tell you if they are triggered or not. If they are then some firmware changes are needed. Do the carriages move the correct direction?

it says end stop hit.... but the arms are still in the middle of the machine
y/x up z goes down
z up z & x up y down
x & y left x & y goes up
x & y right x & y goes down

Ok, ill upload a proper confog here shortly. The endstops are wired slightly differently.

Try this out

Hi all. Uploaded the ramps and it worked. I went through all the set up etc. But when it came to saving the settings in rep host Ie script 1 2. 3. They arnt there. Aldo when I home the arms. They go straight to the top and keep going after hitting the end stops. Thanks

If the endstop wiring is the same as the picture you posted before, the endstops are plugged into the min endstop pins instead of the max endstop pins. I set up the firmware for the max endstops, so just move all of them over one. It should be labeled min vs max.

hi i tried that and tried calibrating the arms etc but it still not working right. when i click the home button also where should the arms go to ?
tried the recal like the video a few times but somthing isnt right

thanks

The arms should move up. Are they moving down a small amount? That means they might be wired NC, but since they were on the wrong pins it seemed like the config was wrong.

i think the set up in general is ok. it might just be that i am doing it wrong... or the method on youtube wont work with the firmwear/v1 early mod i have ?
when i home all be4 calib the hot end goes well away from centre.
whats the best way to set up home for all arms ?
thnaks

What happens when you press *home all* in repetier? Can you video it? Im having a real hard time understanding whats going on so its difficult to help
