WARNING: THIS IN A PROCESS OF HEAVY OVERWORKING.
DO NOT USE THIS ON YOUR MACHINE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!!!
===========================================
This RepRap firmware is a mashup between <a href="https://github.com/kliment/Sprinter">Sprinter</a>, <a href="https://github.com/simen/grbl/tree">grbl</a> and many original parts.
Derived from Sprinter and Grbl by Erik van der Zalm.
Sprinters lead developers are Kliment and caru.
Grbls lead developer is Simen Svale Skogsrud.
Some features have been added by and configuration has been added by:
Bernhard Kubicek, Matthijs Keuper, Bradley Feldman, and others...
Features:
- Interrupt based movement with real linear acceleration
- High steprate
- Look ahead (Keep the speed high when possible. High cornering speed)
- Interrupt based temperature protection
- preliminary support for Matthew Roberts advance algorithm
For more info see: http://reprap.org/pipermail/reprap-dev/2011-May/003323.html
- Full endstop support
- Simple LCD support (16x2)
- SD Card support
- Provisions for Bernhard Kubicek's new hardware control console and 20x4 lcd
This firmware is optimized for Ultimaker's gen6 electronics (including the Ultimaker 1.5.x daughterboard and Arduino Mega 2560).
The default baudrate is 115200.
========================================================================================
Configuring and compilation
Install the latest arduino software IDE/toolset (currently 0022)
http://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software

http://software.ultimaker.com
(or alternatively install Kliment's printrun/pronterface https://github.com/kliment/Printrun_)
Copy the Ultimaker Marlin firmware
https:/github.com/bkubicek/Marlin
(Use the download button)
Start the arduino IDE.
Select Tools -> Board -> Arduino Mega 2560
Select the correct serial port in Tools ->Serial Port
Open Marlin.pde
Click the Verify/Compile button
Click the Upload button
If all goes well the firmware is uploading
Start Ultimaker's Custom RepG 25
