How to upload the firmware

Post by zhangxueyou »

Firstly, you have to download "Arduino" . Download link:
http://arduino.googlecode.com/files/ard ... indows.zip
Then unzip the file.

If your board type is sanguinololu. You have to download another file at this page:
http://www.geeetech.com/wiki/images/a/a ... 0101r1.zip
This is the board type of Sanguinololu, without it , you can not find Sanguinololu's board type in Arduino IDE(arduino.exe)
Unzip the file, then re-name the unzipped folder as "sanguino", and move the folder to: arduino-1.0.1-windows\arduino-1.0.1\hardware
Then open "arduino.exe" in Arduino, and upload the firmware following this page:
http://www.geeetech.com/wiki/index.php/ ... le_Burning (For Sanguinololu)
http://www.geeetech.com/wiki/index.php/ ... le_Burning (For Ramps1.4+Mega 2560)

For people whose board type is Ramps+Mega 2560, if it is your first time to connect your mainboard to computer, you have to install the driver for Arduino Mega 2560, Firstly, you have to download "Arduino" . Download link:

Good Morning, I need the firmware that came with the printer from amazon. It is the ramps 1.4 with the LCD display.
I found the B version and have that uploaded. I am having stops issues. I would like to know what was originally sent loaded to compare to learn and help others.


Thank You

Hi,joellog
Firstly, you have to confirm whether the endstops are connected correctly.

Good morning,

First confusion. Left to right should be X Y Z?
blue wire x extruder assy
Red wire Y plate assy
Black Z vertical axis
PDF for ramps is wrong pic btw shows connector side to side

I have firmware for i3b I found here working. Trying to adjust extruder height and speed now.
When using repeater there were no EEPROM setting showing so I wanted configuration file.
Ramps on site doesn't seem to be configured for display.
Please email me firmware to joellog@aol.com for comparison.

Thank You for your help

3D printer is a DIY product. Not all the firmwares are the same. We have our own settings according to our design. So the firmware you download from internet is not necessarily exactly correct.
Please check your email.
