  13.            <description><![CDATA[ Hello,<br />
  14. When I use my Windows device to control ramps1.4 (mounted on mega Arduino) via Python3, by g code like this:<br />
  15. ...<br />
  16. import serial<br />
  17. import time<br />
  18. <br />
  19. myPort = serial.Serial('COM7', 250000, parity='N')<br />
  20. time.sleep(1)<br />
  21. <br />
  22. myPort.write('M302 S0\n'.encode())<br />
  23. myPort.write('G1 Z-50 F1000000\n'.encode())<br />
  24. myPort.write('M84\n'.encode())<br />
  25. ...<br />
  26. everything is good and my step motors work. Next, when I connect this board to my Raspberry Pi5 device and change the 'myPort' code to 'myPort = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyACM0', 250000, parity='N')' connection is established and RAMPS1.4 light flashing to tell us that port is connected but my g code does not work and step motors remain motionless (without any error). First I thought that's issue relates to the Baud rate. So, to solve this problem I tried to change the baud rate in Raspberry Pi 5 via this code 'stty -F /dev/ttyACM0 115200' and checked it again, but that did not work either. Also, I tried any other standard baud rate and failed at all of them. And now, I don't know how to solve it.]]></description>

  68. <br />
  69. how about some pictures of the mosfet modules and where all the wires actually go?<br />
  70. <br />
  71. the MK52 is about 1ohm so pulls about 12 amps, most external mosfets should be able to do that easily <br />
  72. <br />
  73. This doesn't really make sense from the description...<br />
  74. <br />
  75. The connection form D8 to the module is just the on/off signal, it has practically no current. It normally goes to a optocoupler so is just turning on two LEDs (the blue one and one you cant see)]]></description>

  84.            <description><![CDATA[ Hi Dust.  <br />
  85. <br />
  86. I forgot to mention some of those particulars.  The board is a genuine Prusa MK52 that is 210x250 and is 12v.  It is not a Prusa printer but a Mendel variant that I upgraded over time.  I had been just using PLA and having the bed go to 60c. Before I added the mosfet board, I had no trouble getting the heatbed to 75c, but it wouldn't get past that before the alarm sounded due to its taking too long to heat.  I wanted to try some ABS I had so that's why I added the mosfet board.  I have no problem getting the hotend to temperature so it can extrude the ABS.  My Prusa MK3x has no trouble getting the bed to temperature for ABS, but it is a 24v system.<br />
  87. <br />
  88. When powered up, the mosfet board's little red led is lit.  When I attempt to heat up the bed, the little blue led lights.  The red led for the MK52  I hooked up and tried another mosfet board (same type) and the same thing happened.]]></description>

  110.            <description><![CDATA[ I tried to add an external mosfet board to my Ramps 1.4 board, but it didn't work for me.  I have a 12v S360-30 PS with three outputs.<br />
  111. <br />
  112. This is what I did.  I originally had two of the outputs from the PS go to the inputs of the Ramps 1.4 board, one to the 11a side and one to the 5a side.  I took the third output from the PS and hooked it up to the external mosfet board on its PS connectors.  Correct polarity on all of the outputs.  I hooked the heatbed up to the external mosfet board on its heatbed connectors.  I hooked up the sensor wires from the external mosfet board to the D8 connector on the Ramps 1.4 board where the heatbed wires were connected.<br />
  113. <br />
  114. The external mosfet got really hot and the the heat bed didn't heat up.  I surely messed up the wiring.<br />
  115. <br />
  116. Should I have shared the PS output that went to the 11A on the Ramps board, with the input on the external mosfet board instead of using that third output?]]></description>

  140. <br />
  141. I'm building a custom 3d printer using ramps 1.4 board.<br />
  142. Thanks to reprap community, I've completed to run motors and endstoppers very quickly.<br />
  143. <br />
  144. I have connected the mk3 heatbed to D8 and mk8 hotend to D10.<br />
  145. They both have 100K NTCs.<br />
  146. Hotend thermistor was connected to T0, and hotbed thermistor was connected to T1.<br />
  147. In the configuration file, hotend sensor setting was 1, sensor0.<br />
  148. Hotbed sensor setting was 0.<br />
  149. <br />
  150. When I chose preheat from lcd menu, a red led on ramps was on for about 5 seconds then I lost view from lcd screen.<br />
  151. <br />
  152. I checked the regulator on arduino and middle pin gives around 3 volts. Now I will change the regulator but what is my problem?<br />
  153. <br />
  154. NTCs and heater don't have polarity.<br />
  155. I was testing for pla.<br />
  156. <br />
  157. My endstoppers may be active while I was making preheat test, does this may be the reason?<br />
  158. <br />
  159. Thanks.]]></description>

  169. When I energize the ramps, the extruder starts to heat up and continues indefinitely (it only stops heating when I remove the power). <br />
  170. I believed it could be a problem with the Q1 mosfet but even after replacing it the problem continues. <br />
  171. I removed the hotend wires from the D10 connector and measured the voltage with a multimeter on the connector pins. It has 12v as soon as I power the ramps.<br />
  172. Does anyone have an idea what it could be? <br />

  209.            <description><![CDATA[ Hi, I'm not sure if this has been considered previously and already solved (or maybe its not a good Idea), I am keen on a Voron esk printer, but I'm not keen on the price, I was thinking I can get a triple z driver controller through Ramps 1.4 board (with a couple of wires hanging off the side).<br />
  210. <br />
  211. What I am thinking for the Z I would use the 2 E's and Z becomes E, but for the wiring of Z there would be 3 semi independent stepper drivers, the catch being they would have a common direction and common enable, so all 3 Z stepper drivers would share a common direction, allowing them to move independently of each other as long as its in the same direction, so the first stepper driver would be wired as per normal, then Z2 (initially wired up through an external bread board) would use the enable and direction from Z1, thus freeing up its direction to be used by Z3 as the step.<br />
  212. <br />
  213. What I am after I guess is has this problem already been solved with ramps? so what I would end up with is being able to driver 6 stepper motors off a ramps. They Z wouldn't be in unison but would be confederated.<br />
  214. <br />
  215. I realise there are other pinouts which could be repurposed for a stepper, but one of the advantages I see is that is does not compromise any other feature on the board, the only compromise is that all 3 Z's will move in the same direction.<br />
  216. <br />
  217. This should also allow for Z tilting as long as it is one stepper at a time.]]></description>

  245.            <description><![CDATA[ Hallo!<br />
  246. <br />
  247. Ich habe eine bq witbox und bin eigentlich sehr zufrieden damit! Nun musste ich das Ritzel beim Extruder tauschen, wobei es dann an einer wohl im Betrieb durchgescheuerten Stelle an einem Kabel zum hotend einen Kurzschluss gab.<br />
  248. <br />
  249. Nun tritt der im Betreff geschilderte Fehler auf: gleich nach dem Einschalten des Druckers heitzt das hotend ungeregelt auf. Ich tippe, nachdem ich mich etwas eingelesen habe, auf das "MOSFET".<br />
  250. <br />
  251. In der bq witbox ist, wenn ich mich nicht irre, ein modifiziertes RAMPS 1.4 verbaut. Leider funktioniert der 1:1 Austausch nicht, da sich der Stromanschluss auf einen von aussen aufgesetzten Stecker ändern würde. Den Platz habe ich nicht! <br />
  252. <br />
  253. Es können eigentlich nur 2 MOSFETS sein. Eine von den Beiden bei D9, D10, oder?<br />
  254. <br />
  255. Nun meine Fragen:<br />
  256. <br />
  257. * Kann mir jemand sagen, welchen der Beiden es genau betrifft<br />
  258. * was wären die Spezifikationen von diesem MOSFET. Aus dem was auf dem einen steht, den ich sehe, werde ich nicht schlau. Kann ich später noch hier abschreiben. Wie gross wären die Schwierigkeiten beim Austausch der MOSFETS. Hat jemand vielleichr einen Namen und eine Bezugsquelle? <br />
  259. * wenn ich einen kompletten Tausch von Ramps 1.4 auf 1.6 mache - ich würde auch die Treiber tauschen - müsste ich da was in der Programmierung ändern oder genügt es das Ganze einfach nur wieder zusammen zu stecken? Der Stromanschluss sollte beim Ramps 1.6 passen, da Kabel geklemmt. <br />
  260. <br />
  261. Ich bin eher ein "Mechaniker" als ein "Elektroniker".<br />
  262. <br />
  263. Vielen Dank für die Hilfe]]></description>

  281.            <description><![CDATA[ I hate to bring this up, given past articles, but here goes: Upgraded to Marlin 2.1.2.1 (may or may not be significant), also installed magnetic surface with magnetic rubber backing on glass plate, which MAYbe a factor due to higher thermal mass.  Error trying to reach 60C on bed, gets to 50, LED goes to flashing rather than constant, then quits.  Tried M303 at 50, saved PID parameters, but same problem.  Screen reading is 5 or more degrees C LOWER than temp at thermistor (100K, "1"), using optical pyrometer.  Which is correct at body temp and at 100C boiling water (I'm at sea level).  I've just recompiled using longer timeouts for 2 degree increase (20 seconds to 60), haven't tried it yet.<br />
  282. Resistance of thermistor for bed  is CORRECT for temps up to 50C, but displayed temp is low by perhaps 5-7 degrees.  Thermistor table (1.h) is identical to that of Marlin 1.x which I was using previously.<br />
  283. Bottom line, displayed temp is in error relative to resistance of thermistor.  I'd greatly appreciate any help / thanks /m]]></description>

Do I put the positive on the VCC and just hook the ground anywhere on the servo pin ground?</div></blockquote>
  294. <br />
  295. <br />
  296. Noting inbetween. Positive of the converter just to the sensor; don't connect it to the 5V on the board. Ground can be anywhere; these buck converters have a common ground, so it's the same ground your ramps and atmega uses.<br />
  297. Other option is using the output to drive your atmega and ramps; D1 on the ramps has to be removed for this, and i think a connetion heas to be made from atmega's 5 volt out to the atmega 5v in.]]></description>

I am going to use a step down converter from a 12v power supply but I don't know how to safely do this. Do I need any type of current limiting device ,resisters, etc., in between? can I just hook the positive straight up to the vcc jumper pin? Also, where exactly do I hook these up to?
