Enjoy the holidays. Post back here when you are ready to continue.
The defaults for the 1000mm machine are the same as the 500mm, except $130=790 $131=790 for the original 1000mm or $130=740 $131=790 for the newer version.
I’ve been helping folks get their X-carve machines up and running. I’ve learned a lot. One of the things that I have noticed is that the grbl parameters seem to be inconsistent, especially when the Arduino has to be re-flashed.
Long story short I wanted to find out exactly what the defaults should be.
I took a new Arduino and used the EEPROM clear example program to clear the contents of the EEPROM (1024 locations), compiled the source code for Grbl 0.9j, downloaded to the Arduino, then ask fo…
Take a look at this to see if it would be helpful for your setup.
This is a modified version of grbl to include the J Tech variable power capabilities (J Tech grbl version 0.9g) into the Inventables Master fork of grbl 1.0c (a work in progress). Also included is the ability to switch between laser mode and spindle mode without having to reload the firmware.
The .zip file contains a Readme file with more information. Please read the Readme file, it is short and contains information that you will need to use this firmware successfully.
Many thanks go to those …
