ReplicatorG-Skeinforge-RAMPS

I built a RepRap Mendel with Wade's Geared Extruder.

I have it working already, but my Skeinforge settings are still way of.

Here will be the place with the tweaks I did to get it going with ReplicatorG.

Firmware used: Teacup Firmware

First of all:

Be sure baudrates match:

File: replicatorg/machines/

• change settings

File: config.h.ramps

• renamed to config.h
• softlimits undefined (to make repositioning via the ReplicatorG Controlpanel easy, will be reenabled after everything works)
• #define BAUD 115200
• #define XON/OFF
• ACCELERATION_REPRAP undefined
• ACCELERATION_RAMPING undefined
• Stepper settings:
  • #define MAXIMUM_FEEDRATE_X 200
  • #define MAXIMUM_FEEDRATE_Y 200
  • #define MAXIMUM_FEEDRATE_Z 100
  • #define MAXIMUM_FEEDRATE_E 600

• • #define SEARCH_FEEDRATE_X 100 //was50
  • #define SEARCH_FEEDRATE_Y 100
  • #define SEARCH_FEEDRATE_Z 100 ///was 1???
  • #define SEARCH_FEEDRATE_E 50

• • #define E_STARTSTOP_STEPS 1 //this might need to be zero, will try later again

RAMPS onboard jumpers:

• Extruder Microstepping to 1/4 steps

Skeinforge settings:

Activate dimension Set to Relative

ReplicatorG settings:

Prferences: Generate separate Z steps (not sure this necessary) Attention! You ABSOLUTELY need to disable this again if you use ReplicatorG with a Makerbot Thing-O-Matic, it will make the head crash right into the build platform!!!
