This page is an attempt to summarize ALL the firmware I can find in this gadawful mess of a wiki. From here on down is the authoritative list of firmwares:

FiveD

Original Author
no idea
Active as of
June 22, 2011
Short Description
From what I can tell, this is the granddaddy of all firmwares. It appears to be the original G-code interpreter from where everything is forked. It looks like development is still active.

Features

  • stepper extruder
  • extruder speed control
  • movement speed control
  • RepRap-style acceleration
  • thermocouples
  • heated build platforms

Compatible Electronics

How to download

It's my understanding that as of July 6, the sourceforge repo for all official reprap stuff is getting switched over to github so for now, it can be checked out from sourceforge by running the command:

svn co https://reprap.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/reprap/trunk/software/firmware

or to check it out from github, run:

git clone https://github.com/reprap/firmware.git

The firmware is in the FiveD_GCode Directory

Documentation & Misc. Notes

Documentation is over at Microcontroller firmware installation


Tonokip

Short Description
Somehow this is linked to the FiveD firmware because it's in the same repository as FiveD. I think its the same but can just read SD cards.

Features

  • Same as FiveD???
  • Can read SD cards???

Compatible Electronics


How to download

It's in a subfolder along with the FiveD firmware so to download it, you run

or check it out from github:

git clone https://github.com/reprap/firmware.git

The firmware is in the Tonokip_Firmware Directory
