Last crawled date: 4 years, 3 months ago

Hello, this is my first contribution to the community. A minimal 8 LED WS2812B mount for the CR-10SPro to light up your print.
How to make it:
Print the model with the gcode, or slice it yourself with 100% infil (important so that the eccentric nut mount won't break.
Get some 2x4 WS2812B's (or other similar 5V) LEDS, and stick them with double sided tape to the two main areas.
Solder them together as shown on underside.jpg and stick the joining wire to the side of the carriage.
Run the 3 line cable as shown on back.jpg and through the main cable line, to the extruder, and down the flat cable line to the mainboard of your CR-10SPro
There connect your 3 wires to the board as shown on wiring.jpg Notice: V G S markings on the board, connect respectively to the LEDS: V - 5V, G - G, S - DIN
Flash your FW with changes in the configuration.h (depending on your FW, make sure you have):
define NEOPIXEL_LED // uncomented
define NEOPIXEL_TYPE NEO_GRB
define NEOPIXEL_PIN 12
define NEOPIXEL_PIXELS 8
define NEOPIXEL_IS_SEQUENTIAL
define NEOPIXEL_BRIGHTNESS 127
define NEOPIXEL_STARTUP_TEST
Bootup, and enjoy! :)
