The meticulous enunciation + 1.25x speed made this super clear and easy to understand. A lot of other videos I watched on setting up UART for TMC2208's on the SKR V1.4 and Marlin had left out many of the details which you covered in this video. Thanks.

For those working with the TURBO version, that's the *LPC1769* (rather than the LPC1768). Took me a while to figure that one out 😅

Can't believe it was this easy... other video tutorials are overly complicated for no reason. Liked and subscribed, thanks a lot!

Much easier to read the thumbnails now. I appreciate the effort.

Thank you very much for the tutorial; I too thought the resistors were missing, but when looking closely they were there. They are easy to miss.

Thanks a lot for the information! I’ve been wanting to replace the Rambo board on my Makergear M2 for a while now. This will really help.

Watch at 1.5-1.75x speed for normal talking spped 🤣 Love the tutorial!

Bro i know it been long time since this video but its super kool man thenk you very much for that info

18:16 u didn't tell to move that red jumper down for programming, i was scared for a bit my board was faulty as it didn't do anything when i connected it to my pc Anyways thanks for this tutorial, it helped me really much!

Your channel supplies a wealth of information for many and it is appreciated that you use your own funds for the benefit of others, why have you not set up a paypal so those of us who wish to contribute can showing our gratitude for your efforts, 'and you'll hear a beep' LOL. regards RobUK

When I purchased my V1.3 (the first one) I purchased it as a complete kit with five of these and to be honest I don't care much for the 2208 as it does have some oddness to them. I firmly believe the 2209's took care of those oddities. Here is one oddity but I can take a 4988 and drive my Z faster than with a 2208. I don't know why considering the 2208 is supposed to handle more current than the 4988.

Awesome!

Thank you. Would be great a tutorial for conductive Level sensor.

so much better than AI!

Hi, Thx, I use 5 TMC2208... i have CR10-S, All is ok, but a friend need a TMC2208 i take off my last TMC2208 and now : Erreur Connexion TMC but, i just need 4 no ? Thx

Thanks for your work

I'm trying to setup a SKR V1.1 with TMC 2209 V3.0 which is in UART by default. This old board has way less jumper pins so im not sure how I should do it

thank you for the always super clear articlated explanation, is a big help for me

Hello there. Question looking for some help in. BTT TMC 2208 for BTT SKR 1.4 TURBO. I thought the TMC2208 where set in UART from factory, seemed not in my case. Is there anyother way not to have to solder the J2 part to get UART to work.

The TMC2208 V3's I have got has missing 0 ohm resistor missing in all of them. Is there any workaround for that if i want to use 2208's in UART mode? Will shorting those two solder pads fixx the issue?

hi, sorry but I need your help, when I update the firmware on screen appear "TMC CONEXION ERROR", do you know why it could happened? thanks :( sunlu s8 skr 1.4 turbo tmc 2208 v3

Thank you for very informative and in-depth content. Do you have any plans on popping in the ESP8266-01 module into there? I haven't seen anyone on KZfaq do that yet. I'm waiting for my SKR 1.4 and TFT35 any day now and was hoping to program an old ESP-01s to use with the board, just out of curiosity because I usually work with OctoPrint.

I have SKR 1.4 Turbo w/BTT TMC2208 3.0 drivers. I would like to know if I am able to set microstepping values from LCD without flashing firmware. Do you have a video on this or is it not possible?

i purchased a kit from BTT with skr 1.4 turbo + TMC 2208 , those three pads you mention that have the 0hm resistor connecting , i don't have that , could that be why whenever i request M122 it says all Tmc are too low?

Thank you! Will you test sensorless_homing and probing functions? I'm trying to swap anet a8 ( :)))) hardware for skr 1.4+ tmc2209 for all motors + btt tft35 v3.0 + esp-01s, its interesting if sensorless will work well :)

great vid edward any chance you can do a vid on installing tmc 2209 drivers with and without endstop switches thanks and keep up the good work

I really want to get back into my 3d printer(s) but such problems with the skr 1.3 and tft35 V2 left me with endless frustrations. can you recommend this board and the tft35 v3 as a completely compatible system? or what combination would you put your reputation on?

Great videos - i am awaiting to find out what the closed loop jumpers do!

Hello Edward. Is it possible for you to do a video about the SKR 1.4/1.4 Turbo and how to install and configure TMC2209 UART drivers? I have bought that combination and don't know exactly how to set the jumpers and what to configure in Marlin. Thanks!

Greate video! Do you think it should work the same way when connecting TMC2208 drivers with the SKR2.0?

I have an Anycubic i3 Mega-S printer. Would you know if this board is compatible with my printer? Trying to learn as much as I can, but as you can tell I've only just started...

thx so much for your wonderfull video tutorials :). Liked and subscribed!!. Please, i would like to see a tuto from you about SKR 1.4 and BL Touch, and ESP01. thx again

One Q: my SKR v1.4 Turbo will come populated with 5 TMC2209's, but only 4 will be used. What is the best cause to take, leave the 5th in, or remove it before use?

Hello Edward, thank you for this video. As always, it has become a very detailed tutorial and has been able to help me very well. However, I still have one question. The values for "default steps per mm" in configuration.h, do you enter them for 1/16 tel steps? Is it what is meant when it is written "simply exchange for A4988"? Thank you very much.

hi i need cut or no DIAG pin to use BLtouch and sensors ? with tmc2208 v3 ?

I cant seem to get marlin 2.1 to compile in uart... I can get it to compile just fine if I make the drivers standalone, but as soon as I try to remove the standalone from the driver name, it gives me errors about x or y hardware serial pins needing to be set. If I go to config_adv and in the board pins and board common pins to change them, it still does not work. I think there is something wrong with the TMC2208 library not installing properly, but I just cant figure it out. if i go to platformio library and look at Examples/ TMC2208_SoftwareSerial.ino, I can see the TX/RX hardware/software serial pins my error talks about, but I dont know how or where to use that example. Do I just copy and paste that into my board/common pins .h file or what? I'm using a BTT SKR V1.1 with TMC2208 V3.0 UART, and an BTT TFT35 V2.0 for the screen. I am also using autobuild marlin so not sure if that has anything to do with it or not.

I have CR10S and just install motherboard SKR 1.4 Turbo with TMC2208 UART. and have problem with Z axist and end stop switch. End stop switch not react when I go to homing Z axis. Also when I start with print I get message homin faill.

Thank you for the videos. I did everything you said in the video, but keep getting TMC CONNECTION ERROR warning. skr 1.4 turbo, 4 pcs two tree tmc2208 driver, ender 3 pro. I didn't print anything yet but it seems everything is working. It does homing, mesh bed levelling, heating act. when I connect via pronterface, all axis are 0x00:00:00:00, and Error: All LOW. What shoul I do? I want to use in uart mode.

why do u just change the drive type of the x and y axis?

first very good video and quite explanatory. My doubt is that I should buy an SKR V1.4 and some MKS TMC2208 V2.0 (they are white ones that have a 0ohm resistor soldered on the bottom side). marlin but when I load it no motor works. If I put it in standalone mode they work but I want to use them in the other mode. Do you know what it could be?

I am getting a "Target Run" error. What does that mean?

thank you!

Will you do the same for 2209 or is it identical to the 2208's? Maybe more on tuning the voltages for stepper motors? How about sensorless homing? :) As always, thank you for all your great videos.

Hello, can someone tell me why moving the x axis also moves the y axis, and vice versa?

Thanks again for the videos, very appreciated! In the configuration.h file, if your using 2ea z-axis motors connected to the Z-a and z-b output ports would you need to in comment the z-b line? Thx

Your tutorials are very nice. I wanna ask something. If ı use two z motor, tmc2208's mA(rms current) has to be 1400?

out of curiosity why did you choose not to use the preconfigured SKR1.4 marlin from their github?

Which printer do you use this with ? And are you going to make a tutorial with a BL-Touch aswell ?

i have the tft3.5 v2 updated to latest version with the SKR 1.4 turbo and i followed multiple tutorials and vid but it keeps saying no printer attached. I'Ve done all the steps. is the tft3.5 v2 the only tft screen not working with the SKR 1.4?

Could you please do a tmc2209 uart skr1.4 turbo setup

Hi Edward! So, my SKR 1.4 T came today with these drivers and after plugging everything in, it says 'TMC Connection Error'. My jumpers are in place as following your other videos. I've checked that my zero ohm resistor is in place in every driver, so I guess I don't have anything else to solder right? Am I missing something very obvious here? No dupont cables to connect here and there right? Also I've noticed that when I upload a new firmware, after rebooting it just won't work as intended. I change things here and there, inverting axis directions, changing printer name and such, but to no avail... it's like the new compiled firmware does not actually get uploaded altough I see the new .bin file in the TF card and goes away when rebooted.... Also my heated bed it's not showing a proper temp value but everything is correctly connected (this could be that stock firmware has not a hotbed activated)... hotend works as intended tough... I would paste an M122 but it's way too long. Could you please help me work around this issue? Many thanks.

And what about when you get an error compiling LPC1768?

was all good until I plugged in the endstops,board wont post with them attached

How much would you charge to build this exact board for an anycubic mega pro

Do you need to import the TMC2208 library in platformio.ini?

My sensorless homing doesn't work it doesn't stop and doesn't sense when to stop (for a prusa mk3s)

WE NEED GUIDE TO SKR 1.4 WITH TMC2209-->Sensorless Homing (skr1.3 and 1.4 have different jumpers for this and I DONT UNDERSTAND ANYTHING) i have been trying to use Endstops but i cant make them work so i decided to try Sensorless homing and its impossilbe BTW: Thanks for your awesome videos and GREETINGS From FINLAND

I don't have that bar at the bottom

Pourquoi ne pas faire des vidéos en Français !? Super job.

Thanks, that was a good video at 2x speed.

its zee not zed... common now. no one adds a ed to the X and Y axis so why Z? and no one says Zedbra instead of Zebra. Zed makes no flipping sense.

Z achse problem die confi... achse extruder geht nicht auf das bed zum 0 punkt

use 1.25 playback speed if you hate slow talkers.

Nice info but feels like it's in slow motion.
