Board Compabilty #502

Hi,

is this fork compatabile with the azteeg x5 gt it have a lpc 1769 mcu

tia

Paciente8159 commented 1 year ago

Hi there,

There are several configurations for LPC1768 board. In theory, LPC1769 should also be supported. The only thing that would be needed would be to create a board pinout configuration (boardmap file) and add an entry on platformio lpc ini file to compile the code to the LPC1769.

I can't find the board schematics (since Panucatt documentation link is dead). With it I would be able to provide a bin file for you to load in the SD card and test if at least the communication works and if it does then a full boardfile can be added.

i will try to get my hands on the pin map

Avatarsia commented 1 year ago

will this from marlin work ? pins_AZTEEG_X5_GT.txt

Paciente8159 commented 1 year ago

It misses some important information like the communication ports pins (UART, USB, etc..). Without that info I cannot configure the bare minimal for communication.

Its possible to port from a smoothie config? https://github.com/eclsnowman/HercuLien/blob/master/Azteeg%20X5%20GT%20Smoothieware/config.txt

Paciente8159 commented 1 year ago

Found it here .. I'll try to get something for you to test in a few days.

Avatarsia commented 1 year ago

Okay, seen that also before, just not sure if the mini have the same pinmap as the x5 gt

Paciente8159 commented 1 year ago

Ups my mistake then. I was interested in the schematic files. I'll search a bit more.

I will assume it uses usb port. I'll try to create a configuration based on the info already available.

yeah usb and sd card

Paciente8159 commented 1 year ago

Please let me know if at least the board communicates correctly, because without a board I'm unable to test anything. So there are 2 firmware versions. One with the sd card module and one without.

Configuration was minimal. Just the steppers, XYZ limits (min only), a couple of PWM outputs and SPI (port1 which I'm guessing because I'm missing that infor without the schematics to be sure). If it works it can be completed to include more features.

I've also added the json config file. firmware.zip

seems the board died, so closed for now and have a look for a better documented board

Sorry to ear about that. I will close the issue. I might try to get my hands on a board with that mcu in the future.
