Re: G2S Pro Dual extrusion Z level issues

Thanks for the updates. I think the issue is really within the Marlin firmware and I believe it's related to using the combination of auto bed leveling and firmware based extruder offsets. From what I read on GitHub, the extruder offset setting are (were) stored in a two dimensional array (X, Y) and ...

Re: G2S Pro Dual extrusion Z level issues

Hi there,

I am having the same problem when trying to use firmware to set the extruder offsets on my G2S, switching to T1 will adjust my Z height and I'll either be printing in the air or crashing into the bed.

You mentioned a bug in Marlin, what were the characteristics of that bug and what ...

Problem with G2S extruder offsets using firmware

Hello,

I have a Delta G2S and recently transitioned to Simplify 3D from Repetier. I know in Repetier, the extruder offsets are set in the printer settings of the host software but in Simplify3D, they recommend you set your offsets in firmware or via the M218 command. So I uncommented and modified ...

PWM Fan Types - GT2560

Hello,

I want to add a fan to the PWM port on the GT2560 for my hot end. What specific fan type do I have to buy in order to be able to control the speed in G-code? There are many types out there and I don't want to risk damage to the board. I'm looking for a 40mm size.

Thanks!

Thanks William

Do you know how the LEDs on a Me Creator 2 are hooked to the REV B board? Since it's not a kit, I cannot find a reference to that board on the Wiki.

Hooking LED(s) to 2560 PWM port

I noticed on the 2560 board wiki that it states you can hook LEDs to the PWM port of the board. Has anyone done this? It would be nice to know the voltage and current limitations, I'd like to connect an LED near the hot end to monitor prints.

Thanks!

G2S Pro Motor timeout / Head dropping

Hi,

Is there any way to prevent the motors from timing out and the print head dropping on the G2S Pro printer? It gets annoying while trying to calibrate and print when the head suddenly drops to the bed.

Thanks for your help!

Dave
