Description
This is a 120mm LED strip cover to glue on the X axis of a TEVO Tarantula 3D printer.
This cover is used to save you from getting blind if you installed the LED strip like I did (see pictures).
Dimensions
Cover size: 120mm (you need to print 2 of them)
Functional description
I did not want to use any screws, so I have printed 2 of these covers and I have glued them with double-sided tape on the X axis.
The LED strip is connected to the MKS board through one NPN transistor. You will need to change few lines on the firmware (see pictures), I also enabled the control of the light via menu.
On my start and end code I have added the following:
START CODE:M355 S1 P255; turns light on
END CODE:M355 S0 P0; turns light off
