Hello everybody, a friend of mine gave up on a project (reprap wilson TS, or something very similar) and instead of throwing all the components away he decided to give it to me.
Being a complete newbie i’ve started to read as much as possible online, but unfortunately i’ve found very little or nothing about this particular controller. I think the name is “MKS gen 1.2” or at least this is the closest thing that i’ve found googlin’ around.
I’ve managed to upload the newest “Marlin” on it, but for some reason whenever it boots up all i get in the monitor is those white squares.
Am I doing anything wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The latest, 1.6.6
Anyway i’ve reuploaded the code with some adjustments and now seems to be working, i’m still getting some strange feedback signals but at least is starting. Tomorrow i’ll start fine tuning.
I don’t find the led to be super useful. You can certainly print without it. Don’t get stuck here, come back to it after you get the important stuff working.
It looks like i have the bed and the extruder working now. I’m still struggling with the motors though, whenever i connect the printer to pronterface and i try the manual steps it only goes one ahead and then stops and nothing else happens.
Any help?
