Got it working by commenting out these 3 lines in ultralcd.cpp

Downloaded Bug fix, changed board and baud, uncommented viki and sd support, when compiling I get this error.

Arduino: 1.6.12 (Windows 10), Board: "Arduino/Genuino Mega or Mega 2560, ATmega2560...

I moved over to Marlin RC7 yesterday and everything is working fine other then the viki lcd. It is on, the sd is turned on and is being recognized, but when pressing the menu button, it briefly...

I tried the lastest marlin branch and I really love it, it's got some great features. Unfortunately the ABL has still the same issues. I also couldn't get the lcd to work FYI.

I will give it a shot as soon as I have some time. Takes quite some fiddling.....Anyhow, I don't really think that this is a glitch, more a conflict in the macros. After the matrix is saved to...

I tried this before and I just tried it again, x doesn't stop when it hits the endstop and I have to reset the machine. Now I just tried this (see below) and it works, unfortunately only the first...

It's very close to what I want it to do, but when x and y are sent home with the "Homeaxis (x)" they are actually at the stop and not at their normal safe homing position. So if x and y are at the...

Thanks, below is what I tried and I get it to do just that, problem is that I need a safe home for the prob to be on the bed.



{
HOMEAXIS(X);
HOMEAXIS(Y);
...

Okay I was wrong, the firmware is the same but still both machines are somewhat sick, depending on how it's wired, it is either x or y that reacts to the triggered z probe, if it's y it's no big deal...

Did you do an M114 in repetier and see where it thinks the machine is.
Make sure the bed size is correct and the home position too.

Roxy,
Don't waste your time on this any longer, I downloaded the latest Marlin and implemented the eeprom save G29, it's working great.

Thanks anyway.

Thanks Roxy, 2 things I have done. Copied the two sd2card files from the working Taz over into the Eight3C fw, not difference.
I copied the marlin main into the eight3c and got a bunch of...

Yeah, it is strange that the newer firmware (yours btw) is not working for this LCD with SD card. Since the same firmware but with a Viki LCD and card works good.
It is the reprap discount LCD's SD...

I changed the *(starpos) = '\0'; to *(starpos-1) = '\0'; but no change.

Hey thanks for the quick reply. It's the other firmware that works, not the Eight3C. Eight3C is what I want to use. I saw these differences too, but didn't know what they were. I will try the change...

I am using a derivat of Roxys improved ABL firmware and the sd card in a Smart Discount LCD doesn't print. The card is seen, I can select files, but it wont print. I uploaded a FW from another...

The code is there, and I am not sure if it is not responding. When I home all, and then do a M114 my z should report a number other than zero, but it is always on zero. M119 and other M codes work...

I got it all working great. One thing I got I don't know why is the M114 is not working. I am using a Ramps with a current Marlin, but the m114 command doesn't do anything. Any suggestions?

Okay, now I think I got it.

Thanks so much

Okay, thanks I got it here, but haven't put the circuit together, since it cannot find a 12v out to use. Okay, if I would have read the whole story I would have seen this.
Aux 2 63 and GND right...

No right now I am just trying to find a 12v out that will react to the M401 with pin64 for z probe, the solenoid is not connected, but also, no this doesn't make sense to me. I am just trying to...

Okay, some other people have done this and refer to the output as ramps digital output and assign pin 63.

Good, thanks, where could I attache that solenoid right now I am working on a ramps board, which out would you use to turn it on when z probing?

This is the solenoid, yes on/off would be good enough, thought that is what I am doing. Got only e1 out left. That is why I thought about pin...
