Hey Chris. I installed my BTT TMC 2209's yesterday. Finally got a chance to test them today when the grandchildren went home. Holy hell my steppers are quiet! Now I know what I was missing when running my A4988's. Just got to re-build my X axis to replace a badly flat spotted mini V wheel and my AM8 will be back in business (albeit much quieter). I have a BTT Mini UPS on the way now too, to hopefully sort out power outages, so Marlin will resume better. Greetings from Wales 😀

The new drivers quieted my Makerfarm Pegasus effectively, so I'm satisfied. Have fun, those of your making the more elaborate upgrade!

Very helpful. I am thinking to get a SKR 1.4 with 2209 drivers. Chris, what do you think about dual Z motors with using E1 as you mentioned to configure to level the bed? As in my CR10 sometime the Z axis gets tilted on one side. I was thinking of using two endstops if possible but looks like I can use sensorless homing for Z as well? Will definitely have to set something on Z both sides so it does not hit hot end.

@ChrisRiley 4 жыл бұрын

Yeah, that is going to be tricky. I haven't tested the Z sensorless homing yet. It would be cool if it would run up to the top and level before every print. Adding the second E1 Z driver shouldn't matter to much. Should be the same results.

I have it working now for a great deal. I have a creality CR-10S and have now installed the SKR 1.4 Turbo board with TMC2209-1.2 drivers in UART mode. I also activated sensorless homing. I'm able to move all axes in both directions, but I can't get my ABL probe (LJ18A3-8-Z/BX-5V - inductive NPN) to work for doing the Z-homing. It starts the Z-home procedure and is going down, but it won't stop when the probe is triggered. M119 says that the probe is triggered or open, depending on the state, but whatever I change in Marlin it won't stop and will crash into the plate. By the way, I'm using the Marlin 2.1.x development version. Any ideas?

Ender 3 which is 24v and has tmc2208 do not do this at all.

@ChrisRiley 3 жыл бұрын

More cooling is never a bad thing, but you probably won't need it if you have heatsinks. Even better if you run them at 24v. Try to dial in your currents as low as you can and you should be okay with out a fan.

I installed the tmc2209 on the 4 axis and it's set (Driver Current) x: 800 y: 800 z: 800 E1: 800 And the driver ref v I put 1.25 is correct? Note: They are moving very fast and making noise.

@ChrisRiley 3 жыл бұрын

The vref at the drive will report this when in UART, correct. 800 shouldn't cause them to move faster, it could be another setting.

If you have 2 x Z motors connected via an adapter to a single driver, when changing HAS_TRINAMIC section, do you need to double the Z_Current ?? e.g. from 800 to 1600

Great video thanks. Maybe you can help with this. I am building a printer and the hot end / carriage will travel past the edge of the bed before it will hit the end of travel in the x and y axis. Will I need to change any other setting for homing?

@dougw9224 4 жыл бұрын

Not actually sure at the moment. I’m in the process of building a printer and I made the frame large enough for a 300mm heat bed but right now I’m putting a smaller 210 (give or take) bed on it. It appears that the carriage will be able to travel to the left (view from the front) farther off the bed area then just to the edge. So I was wondering how one would adjust for the extra distance before the x carriage hit the frame hard stop for homing. Thx

@ChrisRiley 4 жыл бұрын

@@dougw9224 Yes, so you will set the X/Y min to a negative number. 0,0 would be the corner of the bed. Anything more than that toward the endstop would be the negative setting.

Hi Chris, can you give me a little heads up on changing voltages on sensor less homing? I have both X & y working on a Hyper cube with 2209s on a SKR v1.4. Each axis homes really well individually but when homing all the Y homing clunks a little, it does not crash I cannot resolve with the sensitivity, seems much higher on the V1.4 turbo board at around 130. Clearly something to do with the Core XY set up but I have not figured out yet. I thought reducing voltages on homing might be the way. I have tried dual physical stops so the carriage homes evenly on both sides but this also does not make any difference. Thanks again Boothy

@boothybuilds 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Chris, I have just adjusted the voltages, it was staring me in the face, apologies for the request. I have found a sweet balance of 175 for the X current home and 150 for the Y current home. However on initial homing after switching on the Y axis still clunks a little but thereafter on repeat it is fine. I will now start looking at the driver current themselves. I did not realise that both sensor less homing sensitivity and the Driver currents can be individually changed directly from the printer on screen menu in Marlin from the config , advanced settings, TMC drivers menu, which is so much easier for testing. Best Boothy

Great walk through Chris. I've had the SKR 1.3 and TMC 2209s on the Borg for a while now, they have made it so quiet and the sensorless homing works perfectly, although I do still have the occasional skipping on X when homing but that's just a little tweak to the sensitivity, which I'll do soon. I too have a parallel coupling for dual Z motors, but I'd rather have them on separate drivers if possible, although that could introduce an imbalance where the Z motors could fall out of sync, what do you think? Would you consider doing a video on setting it up? Currently I use the BL Touch but would still be very interested to see sensorless Z homing and what you think of it's reliability.

@ChrisRiley 4 жыл бұрын

Hey Spike! I have thought about doing a video on separate Z motor drivers, that could be interesting. It also has some downfalls. It might make good content. I will start looking into it. With the 2 drivers, if they weren't really close to the same current you might get slow creep. Not sure, we need to test......Science!

@fusseldieb 4 жыл бұрын

My guess is that sensorless homing is unreliable because the motor might flex more on one homing than another and this causes inpredictability in the position. It's nice for one-go print where the zero position doesn't need to be 100.0% accurate, but as soon as you need to rehome and use it again, it'll shift a bit.

Hi Chris, thank you for your informative videos they have been a great resource. I have my skr 1.3 with btt tmc2209 v1. 2 and original pinda 2 on my mks2.5s (mini rambo made magic smoke) marlin 2.1.2 and x and y sensorless homing works but when I try to home z it just lifts up a couple of mm and stops. Pinda is on zmin firmware is modified as per your instructions, but no luck with z calibration. I have not cut any diag pins from the steppers or removed the pull up resistor on z min so I was wondering if you could share any wisdom on how to resolve this problem. Oh it happens even if z is parallel set up off one stepper or split to a second z drive on e1. Cheers!

@ChrisRiley Жыл бұрын

Hello, yes, it's probably the pinda triggering in the opposite way. It thinks it's always triggered. Use a terminal, something like pronterface and run a M119. Does it say Z is triggered? Hold some metal up to it and run it again. If it is flipped set z endstop and z probe to the opposite, probably true. Let me know if that works.
