Uninstall the present Arduino software.precisionpete wrote:Got that part already eaglezsoar, appreciate the response.
What I really need is a way to mod the firmware.
I figured out I need to change the setting on the configuration.h file in the arduino but after downloading the software I can't figure out how to edit this file and upload to my orion.
Arduino won't let me open the configuration.h file giving me some cryptic message about needing a package.
The mechanical part was pretty easy, would be nice to use this new hot end correctly.
Check out the assembly manual for the Rostock Max v2 on the downloads section of SeeMeCNC. It has a section for uploading and setting up the firmware in that model printer. Some of the steps will be different, like you need to download the Orion version of the firmware and use Orion settings for it, but it will give you a good idea on how to go about using the Arduino software and such.precisionpete wrote:This isn't supposed to be that difficult.

P.S. Telling "it where your Repetier files are is the problem" WHERE are they located?
On my machine or someplace on the web?
On this link https://github.com/seemecnc/Repetier-09 ... N/Repetier
I see all the files, do I need to grab all these files or only the configuration.h file?
When I open that file with notepad I get much garbage and would be impossible to edit.
When I finally get this done I'll upload a file so the few people that have added a E3D V6 to their orion can get running instead of spending nights reading and finding nothing. Sorry kinda turning into a rant but frustrating after the mechanical is finished and looks good but I can't use what I put together.
Thst is an excellent idea. First though I want to find out his version number of Repetier. Thanks for the tip. That will save a lot of time instead of guiding the whole thing.redoverred wrote:Check out the assembly manual for the Rostock Max v2 on the downloads section of SeeMeCNC.

You are welcome.precisionpete wrote:Appreciate the help Eaglezsoar. Would have taken a long time for me to find that setting.
Also, interface isn't the same as original but no worries I see English now.
I was bad, normally I back up things before changing. If I could have a true original file to modify my interface would be okay.
Might be nice to clean this thread up and make it a sticky so others have an easier time with the cryptic instructions.
