    Its my own design loosely based off. http://www.dglass3d.com/hotends/

    Mine uses E3DV6 and extended groove mount and brass bushing.

    Hi, Everyone what is the best way to upgrade to keep your configuration?

    One way that works well for me is ExamDiff Pro. It lets you compare two directories and shows you which files have changed. You double click on a file in the list and it gives you a very easy to understand Visual Diff of the two files. You just go from one difference to the next and decide if you want to keep the old values or the new ones.

    There is a trial version of the program. Also, NotePad++ at https://notepad-plus-plus.org/ has visual diff plug ins that work very well. You can do the same thing with it.

    Using a comparison app does make it easier. but I do it was possible to have marlin be able to just keep the config file and swap out all the other files when doing an upgrade.
    I realize this makes it difficult when you are changing variable names for features / settings

    I did mine but screwed somewhere up

    I am now going through line n line....

    Is there a way to get the current config from the Arduino?

    No. The Arduino flash memory only contains the compiled, executable machine code.

    EDIT: My response assumes what you are looking for is the ability to extract out the configuration files that feed into the firmware build. That's not possible. But in addition to what Roxy subsequently suggests, you can also get at many configuration settings via the MakerFarm LCD, but you'll need to know how to correlate those LCD values to entries in the configuration files.

    It depends on how old of a Marlin you have. But if you have a recent version, you can boot up the printer and it will print out (to a connected PronterFace console) almost all of the settings. And similarly, you can do a M503 to get much of that same stuff printed out.
