Firmware for geeetech 3D printers

[Tom123]

Guys i'm new in 3printing.
Tried to install the wright firmware but didnt work...

I've got the GT2560 controlesystem with Mega2560 + Ramps1.4.
Geeetech i3 Pro C dual extruder

I installed the : "I3 pro C (GT2560) - Marlin_GT2560-PI3_Pro_C.zip"
Now my x-motor goes the wrong way, i found out how to change that in the firmware.
But the biggest problem was the y-motor.
It is homing perfectly and with good speed.
But when i tried to manually move the y-axis it is moving with much struggling.
I took the belt off, the same problem is accuring...

Can anyone help me?
Wrong firmware or something else??

Thanx!

How Do I convert the hex file to bin file?

The hex file can be loaded with the ST-Link programmer. I sent you a message by email.

Have you tried to increase the voltage of A4988?

hello guys,

i recently mounted the 3dtouch sensor on my I3 Pro W (A+, the one that already has the pins for the 3dtouch) that i am currently running with firmware 1.04.
on the front page there only is one firmware listed for the pro w.
is this the correct one for my configuration, so that i can start editing the firmware files to get the 3dtouch sensor working? thank you for help, sincerely, nils

I think you can upload the firmware for PRO B(You need to change the print area )
Or you can download the firmware for PRO B and then compare with them.

latest firmware is marlin 1.1.8, if you know how to configure the firmware should be easy. (also need arduino 1.8.5 i think it is, to upload)

Hello,

i have an Geeetech prusa I3 A Pro 3D printer DIY kit
http://www.geeetech.com/geeetech-prusa- ... p-997.html

Could you please tell me where the latest firmware can be downloaded as an arduino project in the marlin format?

Also a problem that in the first post of this toppic there are different firmware version source codes and they should be installed with the arduino version 1.0.1 while lates arduino version is 1.8.5.
I tested both versions: the 2015 firmwares can only be compiled with the latest arduino, NOT with 1.0.1. later shows below errors while compiling:

@kovacsbela

Read this Post here viewtopic.php?f=13&t=17181 It'll explain exactly how to install your firmware with Arduino 1.0.1.

The post also has a link to download the Arduino 1.0.1 that GEEETech recommends, the link will take you to the GEEETech WIKI Page,... where you can download the actual version by this link http://www.geeetech.com/wiki/images/a/a ... indows.zip

Use that version and it'll compile just fine.

Similar problems mentioned on the previous page,
you can try to add the U8glib folder to the library and restart Arduino.

Hi!
I own a MECREATOR2 which worked well for a while.
Now the nozzle temperature is measured wrong. The LCD displays 108 degrees at room temperature.

I checked the thermistor - near 100k at room temperature - ok
Disconnected thermistor - LCD shows 107 degrees
Shorted the thermistor input pins - LCD shows 200 degrees

It seems the analog input is blown somehow.

So I had a look at configuration.h and the pins.h to find an analog pin which i can map the thermistor to.
I found the definitions of TEMP_SENSOR_0 / TEMP_SENSOR_1 / TEMP_SENSOR_2 in the configuration.h file and the pin definitions in pins.h:

ULTIMAKER
#define HEATER_BED_PIN 4
#define TEMP_BED_PIN 10
#define HEATER_0_PIN 10//2
#define TEMP_0_PIN 11//8
#define HEATER_1_PIN 3
#define TEMP_1_PIN 9
#define HEATER_2_PIN -1
#define TEMP_2_PIN -1

Also I had a look at the mainboard (2560 rev B). It seems it has three temperature sensor input.

So how do I map the thermistor to a working input?
