Sorry, we don’t have parts available at this time. Ping me when we build another batch?

1602? I don’t know it. At a minimum you’ll need to change the firmware with new pin settings. I don’t know if your LCD works with the liquid crystal library we are using. Come to Discord and maybe we can help more. https://discord.gg/QtvHqAv8yp

[Dan]

https://discord.gg/QtvHqAv8yp is our discord group. Come with pictures of your hardware, maybe your model has different pins or something? Have you tried adjusting the contrast on the back of the LCD panel?

[Dan]

Maybe best if you come to the discord group and more people with expertise can look at this together. https://discord.gg/QtvHqAv8yp

Are you compiling with VSCode? The fatal error does not happen in VSCode.
The scope is limited to calc_timer() and the contents are calculated once at compile-time, meaning the values are not dynamic.

8-161 ?

filler?

[Dan]

Yes. The machine can do those drawings. The real question is who will write the gcode that the robot will run?

[Dan]

@Phi Le, your picture is great!… but the top corners should be at the center of the motor shafts.

@mrbernd you are 100% correct and thank you for answering Phi Le. Stay awesome 🙂

I encourage everyone to join our Discord server, the response time is faster and we have a #showcase channel where you can post what you’ve been making.

Hi!

You should have received a receipt email, and shortly after a download email. Both contain a link to the download file.

We have received a few reports about 7.24.0 and are working on a 7.24.2 hotfix right now. You can get the up-to-the-second testing version in our Nightly builds (actually faster than nightly) right here: https://github.com/MarginallyClever/Makelangelo-software/releases/tag/Nightly

The one you want is makelangelo-nightly-[most recent date]-[checksum].jar

For live chat with our team find us on discord where – together – can tighten the feedback loop. https://discord.gg/QtvHqAv8yp

Your photo links do not load.

Thank you for your kind words.

Scratch3 format is much harder to process.

@hopo28 and this helps, yes or no? https://mcr.dozuki.com/Guide/5.+Makelangelo+Software+Guide/5#s43

Have you tried to load a two-color SVG? It should already remember the colors and offer a pen change at the right moment.

[Dan]

Je comprends francais, si ca aide.

Veuillez partager votre log.txt et tout message d’erreur, svp.

[Dan]

Interesting! I’ve never seen this one before.

First i’d try disconnecting the HID Wacom table and try again.
Then the HIDI2C device, whatever that is.

Do you have an extra fancy mouse or keyboard? It’s dying when it tries to make a list of all the buttons on your mouse.

I googled the bug and it seems the jinput library we use can’t understand how to talk to some of the input devices on your machine.

Your assumption about home position is correct.

Plotter size is the diameter of the tool head at the bottom of the four cables. you may find setting this number to zero gets better results, it all depends on the design of your tool head.

motor size is how far the motor projects inside the corner of the box. the machine size (ideal box) is not the same as the corner where the belt/cable last touches the motor and goes down in a straight line to the tool head.

i’ll add some comments to the code to clear this up for future users. Thanks!

Share pics/vid on our discord, we want to see what you’re making!

Well… i guess some picture of what “really bad” means.

Homing always double-taps the switches. once fast, once slow. then it goes to home. depending on your configuration that could be 0,0 or the stay at the bottom. it’s now customizable in the software.

again, what is really bad border? example pictures, please.

[Dan]

Come talk to us on Discord, we have several ESP32 people wanting to talk about it there.

Please describe the “issues with the windows software”.

The software is written in a way that relies on Java. So java must be installed first.
Here is an english guide, I hope it helps.

copy ./presets/makelangelo5.h? to ./local_config.h and it should work.

That is correct

“find home” is not “find limit switches”

True…. in the M5 my default is that the home position is also limit switch position. That is not the cartesian origin (0,0). Someone recently contributed a way to set your own home position and that may be part of the confusion. I like it bottom center because it’s reachable on all sizes of machine. Your mileage may vary.

Can you run the 7.23 from the command line? It’s probably spitting out an exception that is not logged to the file (boo). That exception will tell us more about what’s going on.

Also feel free to join our discord to talk live, it can often get faster response times.

[Dan]

https://discord.gg/Q5TZFmB idk why it was the other format. Sorry :T
