Here is my 3D Touch LCD Menu addition for anyone not using the newer firmware that has some support.

Ultralcd.ccp

Search for "MENU_ITEM(gcode, MSG_DISABLE_STEPPERS, PSTR("M84"));" and add the lines as needed.

MENU_ITEM(gcode, MSG_DISABLE_STEPPERS, PSTR("M84"));
MENU_ITEM(gcode, MSG_AUTO_HOME ...

Hey I got my 3Dtouch working just fine thanks to the posts here.

Now I have done that does anyone know how to add the "Reset Alarm" as a menu item in the LCD screen functions.

I assume you have to add the M280 P0 S160 ; Release alarm to the code somewhere but I can't find a example of code to do ...

I just can't get this to work.

I put in a SC card turn on the printer and it works perfect. If I reject the SDcard it will not read it unless I reboot the printer.

This the same problem I have if I use a extended SDcard reader.

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

... may have jumped the gun.

If I eject the SDcard and put it back in it doesn't read it till I restart the printer. I'll have to do some more investigating before this is a good mod or not.

Ok thanks Mark I figured it out after all that... I thought it was going to be a little harder so sorry for amount of posts.

I will do up a some testing and do quick wire diagram on ...

If I measure the pins from the GT2560 it has 3.3v going to the SDcard.

But I have found a huge stumbling block.

If you disconnect the SD card reader cable from the LCD2004 unit the LCD wont work. It lights up and shows the info but you can't use the knob to scroll the menu... so I assume one or ...

they are the same pin, don't worry that.

So you are saying "CS" and "SS" are the same pin?

The VCC to GND pin measures 3.3v and with my limited knowledge these are the only 2 pins I can confidently confirm.

So I tried to connected the SD reader (it has both 3.3 and 5v input) but I haven't got ...

Ok here pin 4 is marked CS



Here this pin is marked SS
I am not sure what to do and what would happen if I connect it and it's wrong?

Mark thanks for the quick reply.

Is there another source for the GT2560 SDcard pinout?

I assume power is the pin above the ground by looking at the cable and I can check that with my meter but what would the CS pin be?

Hi. I have the GT2560 in a Geeetech Pursa I3 X (8mm Acrylic). Everything is good... I love it.

The one problem I have is big hands and getting the SDcard in and out of the slot. I tried using one of those SD card extender from ebay and it didn't work.

I was just given this Geeetech Arduino SD ...
