Calibration and documentation #31

Open dmxkov opened 1 week ago

dmxkov commented 1 week ago

I guess most of the users are smart enough to figure how does it work. Apparently I'm not that one.

  1. I haven't found any information about calibration or first setup of the servo. Happy Hare has really nice docs and pics with full explanation how put the servo, which angle it should be and so on.
  2. Showcase at the end of this repo has an old video with old variant how does it work. The macro has logic somehow described but not enough to make it user friendly.
  3. Official link to Aliexpress has poor quality servo and should be revised at least.

Thank you in advance.

Hi! Sadly I am missing completely time to make a proper showcase video but I would recommend joining our discord server or ask in the Voron discord. There are already a lot EREC users out there who could help with any misunderstanding.

For the servo could you please tell me more about it or share a video? I tested the kit and the servo was enough for any standard PLA/ABS cutting. It might be a quality issue, so its definitely something to investigate. I already contacted the vendor in case they switched servos or something.
