hay,

I'm currently replacing the motors of my ultimaker Original to Nema 17 steppermotors (200 rev 1.8 degree).

I wired everything but, the motors are acting strange. :(

what kind of settings do i have to put in marlin to let them turn  right and in a normal way?

thanks

cheers,

Roy

    The steppers you describe are as far as I can tell, pretty much identical to the originals.

    Ie. same size and step/rev. specs.

    If they are running the wrong way, you probably plugged them in the wrong way in your board (that will make them run "backwards").

    So either turn the plug 180 degrees, or go to the Invert axis section in the configuration.h file in marlin, and invert the affected axis.

    The motors are turning in the right direction. but the thing is they ar gibbering when i run for example a program.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
