Autoleveller and alternate hardware

[booski]

Hello all

I've recently built a 3D Printer, a classic Rostock. I'm interested in fitting a spindle to it and seeing if it'll route a board. The machine will run pretty level when I've sorted a few issues.

The only REAL issue I'll have will be getting autoleveller to work with the hardware, more to the point, the probing code.

I'm using a RAMPS 1.4 kit with an Arduino and whilst the kit reads G-code pretty well, I'm not entirely sure if it'll be able to read the probe points and report back to any software. It's a bit far fetched I know, but I've no idea where to start.

Any pointers per chance?

Hi I also want an answer to the question

[Country_Bubba]

I would think the latest version (AutolevellerAE-0.7.6) would be able to work as you desire. It reads gcode files to make a "probe map" and then it will combine that mapping file with the original gcode file. I don't use RAMPS so I am shooting in the wind.
Does it have a G31 (Probing) command?? This is what Autoleveler uses to generate the mapping file.

Endstop use the output of Z of the ramps for wire probe? this is designated to pin 18 and not 15

[Crea3D]

perform tests makes the journey well in the points but not low Z to justify the level

Crea3D, Judging by your email address I received an email from you about the same thing (Ramps 1.4) I think. However this was in Spanish, and I don't speak the language.

I dont know Ramps myself but Country is completely correct, and to make Autoleveller work for Ramps, I need to know 2 things:

1. The probe command Ramps uses (G31, G38.2 etc.)
2. The format of the map file or RPF that Ramps uses (If Ramps is capable of creating this file at all)

I am assuming that the 2-stage levelling approach which involves the RPF is used, shown here: https://t.co/BYXB2I51BI

That should be all thats needed. The same goes for GRBL.

I am not an expert but appears not only working the ramps with G29, G30, G31 and G32 commands, I do not see G38.2

I need to investigate RAMPS further when I can. But essentially, whatever software you use for control, if you can create an external map file of your probing, AutolevellerAE (member version) should be able to handle it no problem with some tweaks.
