Question #25

Open thawkins opened 3 years ago

thawkins commented 3 years ago

I have a very recent (jan2021) tronxy x5sa-400 (not pro).

Conventional wisdom says this is non titan and has a4988 stepper drivers, however my machine seems to have a Titan extruder and has the TMC2208 drivers. On paper both PRO features.

I noticed that the recently released -400 to -400 Pro upgrade kit doesn't have a new board which kinda confirms my first observation, but confusingly does have a Titan extruder. Which looks identical to the one already on my system. Obviously this makes it hard to workout exactly which hardware I have, and what I need to configure marlin for.

Secondly, I dumped my current chitu settings and did the calculation on the esteps and got a completely different value for the one hardcoded for the 400, Titan, TMC, I get 160, 160, 800,. 92.6, which is not what the configure.hpp time has hard wired for that config.

Any Ideas?

Can other recent owners confirm what I am seeing?

first double check with version board you have... this will confirm the drivers and the settings. it could just be running the wrong settings... my x5sa pro was on non-pro settings
