Marlin 1.1.8 Bugfix - Firmware for Anycubic Kossel Delta Plus by ArtieH

Last crawled date: 3 years ago

These files are configured for the Anycubic Kossel Delta Plus.
See 6/18 Edit
The Configuration.h file sets the Z_Probe_Offset to -15.70. This may not be the same for your printer.
Things in this configuration:
DELTA_AUTO_CALIBRATION
BABYSTEPPING
NOZZLE_PARK_FEATURE
SDSUPPORT
REVERSE_ENCODER_DIRECTION and REVERSE_MENU_DIRECTION - This reverses the direction of the encoder dial when using the LCD menus. I got tired of turning clockwise to go down.
Defines the correct pins for Hot End Fan and Parts Cooling Fan. No need to swap cables on the Trigorilla board.
Servo0 Pin defined for Filament Runout Sensor to match the pinout of the Trigorilla board. The sensor code itself is not defined and/or activated.
No Auto Level defined. Using only the Auto Calibration.
FAN1_PIN defined and activated for Controller Cooling. (To cool down the stepper drivers and MOSFETs)
To use Auto Calibrate to calibrate the printer, follow the directions here. Thank you to namsugak

Received feedback from bagherica that when upgrading from the A4988 to the TMC2208 stepper drivers, it is necessary to make a change in the Configuration.h file. The INVERT direction definitions should all be set to false. The TMC2208 does not require inverting the direction.
The lines should be edited to like like these.

#define INVERT_X_DIR false // DELTA does not invert
#define INVERT_Y_DIR false
#define INVERT_Z_DIR false

This change is untested because I do not have TMC2208 drivers to test with.

Changed title of thing to more accurately describe content.
EDIT: 6/18 9:01am
Removed Configuration.h and Configuration_adv.h as they are included in zip file.
Updated zipfile to 6/15 release of 1.1.8 bugfix
Added links for the Arduino IDE and Marlin Bugfix raw files.
EDIT: 6/1 10:48am
Updated Configuration_adv.h for new 1.1.8 bugfix.
Updated zipfile to new 1.1.8 bugfix with updated Configuration files merged.
EDIT: 5/31 7:46am
Added zipped file of the Marlin Bugfix 1.1.8 with the above files already merged.
Marlin.zip
EDIT: 5/30 9:16am
Added configuration to pins_TRIGORILLA_14 and Configuration_adv.h to define "FAN1_PIN" and activate the "Controller Fan." If you decide to add a cooling fan for the steppers connect the 12V fan to the Fan1 jack on the board.
EDIT: 5/29 10:25pm
I worked through a bug report with Marlin's thinkyhead to apply my semi-hack in a way that works with the Marlin configuration schema. The edits are no longer contained in pins_RAMPS.h and are now in pins_TRIGORILLA_14.h. The board definition in Configuration.h has been changed to BOARD_TRIGORILLA_14 as it should be.
EDIT: 5/24 7:36am
I changed the value of DELTA_HEIGHT in the Configuration.h file to 300 which is the advertised height of the Anycubic Kossel Delta Plus. This should eliminate a Z Probe error that can occur from Auto Calibrate.
