Misc Configuration

This is for configuration settings that does not fit on other pages.

  • PAUSE_START_COMMANDS & PAUSE_END_COMMANDS
    • Both are empty by default.
    • Commands executed before and after a pause. Separate multiple commands with "\n" for a new line.
      • Start: before this the extruder position is saved.
      • End: After this the extruder is Homed in X and Y then the saved position is loaded.
  • SD_RUN_ON_STOP - "G28 X0"
    • Commands to run when you choose to stop a print. I want it to Home in X alone (not sit on top of the printed part).
  • SD_STOP_HEATER_AND_MOTORS_ON_STOP - 1
    • Stop heaters and motors when you select the Stop print.
  • FEATURE_BABYSTEPPING - 0
    • Allows you to slightly raise/lower the extruder in a stepper motor step increment. I disabled it since I don't use it.
  • STEPPER_INACTIVE_TIME - 360L
    • Time in idle seconds before steppers will be disabled (to save power).
  • BAUDRATE - 115200
    • The communication speed when connected to a computer or OctoPi
  • EEPROM_MODE - 1
    • The EEPROM is not required, but makes updating settings easy, and is required for some other features. Set to 0 to disable. If you made a lot of changes to the settings, set this to either 1 or 2 (the one it is not currently) to force a refresh on the EEPROM.
  • UI_BED_COATING - 0
    • Allows you to set settings for different bed coatings (like offsets etc). Not needed for me, thus disabled.
  • FEATURE_Z_PROBE, FEATURE_AUTOLEVEL, BED_LEVELING_METHOD, BED_CORRECTION_METHOD, FEATURE_AXISCOMP
    • Not setup, should you wish to, you are welcome to try and then send me your settings.
  • FEATURE_BEEPER - 0
    • If you like the beeper/buzzer, you are welcome to enable this. I did not like it.

Printer Buffer

  • PRINTLINE_CACHE_SIZE - 25
    • Number of lines to hold in the buffer
  • MOVE_CACHE_LOW - 10
    • The minimum number of lines in the buffer, before the segment speed is reduced to prevent an empty buffer (which can cause blobs on your print).

Printer Name and Logo

  • UI_PRINTER_NAME - "Wanhao D5S"
    • Here you can set the printer name, displayed on the boot screen and when connected to Repetier Host
  • UI_PRINTER_COMPANY
    • I have set this to my company as a credit, however you may, per the license agreement change this. Should you wish to show your own logo (and not the Repetier logo), view the logo.h file for instructions.

For support on this firmware, you can create an Issue (if you believe it is a bug), or post on the Wanhao Google Group.

You should always ensure to include that you are using this firmware on your printer, for us or other experts to help you get what you need faster.
