What Printer Model and electronics are you using with #GCodeSimulator ? I would like to put together a list of printer types and Android devices “known to work”.
Please add a comment with your printer type and Android device. Thanks !
Reprap RAMPS 1.4 (Arduino Mega 2560) + Samsung Galaxy Tab 2
Cerberus Deltabot with Azteeg X3 (Arduino Mega 2560) running Marlin firmware and a Matricom .TAB Nero X2
Repstrapped delta running repetier firmware with a nexus 7 (2012). Only complaint is the nexus will not charge while printing.
i3, azteeg x3, motorola xoom
Reprap RAMPS 1.4 (Arduino Mega 2560) + Nexus 7 (2012). Am going to try connecting the Nexus and Reprap into USB2 hub to allow the Nexus to charge while printing.
Solidoodle 2 / latest lawsey et al Marlin / original Sanguino controller / Nexus 7 2013 with Kitkat 4,4,22 via USB Hub to printer (a la Steve Graber YouTube video)
So the Nexus 7 (2012) model will not allow you to charge it while connected to the USB hub via OTG - need to root the device according to this article: http://tech.iprock.com/?p=9950 would be nice if they had fixed this with 4.4.2, but no it does not work. Will do a test run and see how long the battery lasts with wifi and the screen off.
