I have an “old” printer (Bukobot circa 2014) which has an Azteeg X3 board running Marlin from about that same period. I don’t have the code that the board was installed with, but I do have the “documented” changes made when the Marlin was configured. I have been able to integrate the previous documented changes and figure out a few others to get my printer almost working:
The next problem I’m trying to overcome is extrusion...
In Pronterface, whenever I select “Extrude”, Pronterface responds with "Extruding 1.000000mm of filament.” but the printer actually retracts.
When I press “Retract”, Pronterface responds with: "Reversing 1.000000mm of filament.”, but the printer extrudes.
Now, this was a working printer before the update so none of the wiring has changed, just the firmware.
What setting do I change to invert extruder operation?
[edit] corrected the "Extrude" response from Pronterface. (copy/paste error).
- X movement works correctl.y (+,-,home)
- Y movement works correctl.y (+,-,home)
- Z movement works correctl.y (+,-,home)
- Hot end appears to work hitting and maintaining temp. (no real confirmation, my IR temp gun is on order)
- Bed temps appear to work hitting and also maintaining set temps.
