Updating RMax v2 mechanicals and configuring firmware
Posted: Wed Jan 31, 2018 3:17 pm
I have a RMaxV2 shipped from Jan 2015. This week I decided to update from the U-joint arms and melamine carriages to the ball cup arms and the injection molded carriages after a few failed prints of large diameter objects. The old U-joint arms were binding/rubbing my part layer fans when they were at some large radius distances from the center of the bed.
I am in the process of recalibrating the machine and updating the Rambo firmware. There is a discrepancy between the installation instructions and the latest firmware on Github. What values should I use?
From: https://github.com/seemecnc/Firmware/bl ... guration.h
In a few weeks I also plan on adding an FSR kit under the heated bed. When I do that, do I have to compensate for the raised height by reducing this parameter or can I just leave it alone?
Thanks in advance!

From: https://seemecnc.dozuki.com/Guide/Insta ... 0-15%29/26Because of this, you'll need to recalibrate. In order to do this successfully, you'll need to change your Horizontal Radius to 140 (if you haven't already) and the Diagonal Rod length to 290.8.
Code: Select all
#define DELTA_DIAGONAL_ROD 291.06 // ball cup arms
#define DELTA_MAX_RADIUS 145.0
