Hi all.
I'm new to the forum and have the following questions:
1. I am building an LCD printer, using arduino mega 2560, ramps 1.4. If I use windows version of nanodlp, do I still need a raspberry pi?
2. If instead I decide to have a raspi for my printer, can I use my android 7 phone to control it? If yes, how is this done?
Thanks for the answers
1. No, you will not need an RPi.
2. Yes, just login to the printer by addressing your printer IP address into your phone's browser. Normal NanoDLP will come up. I monitor my prints like this during the day when I am away from the printer. Your phone will have to be connected to the same network as your printer.
I spent today and yesterday moving from the patched version of Marlin to 1.1.8 which officially supports NanoDLP and the sync requirements. I must say, I feel piece of mind now - patches always feels unclean to me. Whilst doing this I also took the opportunity to install a TMC2100 and I cannot believe the difference! It actualle
made the setting up of Marlin difficult because I could not hear the ramping of the acceleration! It was a welcome problem to have!
Hi Shahin,
Thanks for the response. I thought that might have been the case, I have seen this before on other systems. I will try with a new cable and post back on how it pans out. Eventually I will move to bluetooth, I am just waiting for the dongle to arrive.

Hi All,
Been dry running my machine for the last few days and it stops in the middle of a print at least once quite consistently. From what I can see in the Error log it seems to be related to the "wait for done message" that is provided by the patched GRBL 0.9f code. One can see the giberish the serial port puts out at the end of print.log file.
Can anyone shed some light please? Linked is my error log zip.
Thanks,
Dylan
Hi All,
I am building my first LCD (iPad 3/4 LCD) based printer and I am busy setting up the hardware. I am using a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, an Arduino Uno flashed with GRBL 1.1f and a V3.00 GRBL shield with DRV8825. I have successfully setup the LCD and gotten a reliable slicing engine from Autodesk Print Studio. All that is left to do now is to set up the z-axis motion.
Can someone please explain this procedure? Do I set it up under the resin settings? If so, do I have to fill in the syscall and g-code before and after each layer? Also, do I need to used a patched version of GRBL?
Also, my LCD is calibrate correctly, but it flickers every so often. My config.txt setting are as follows:
overscan_left=20
overscan_right=20
overscan_top=20
overscan_bottom=20
start_x=1
core_freq=500
sdram_freq=500
over_voltage=2
disable_camera_led=1
dtparam=i2c1=on
dtparam=i2c_arm=on
dtparam=spi=on
enable_uart=1
dtoverlay=w1-gpio
disable_overscan=1
hdmi_ignore_edid=0xa5000080
hdmi_cvt 2048 1536 50
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_pixel_encoding=2
hdmi_pixel_freq_limit=500000000
hvs_priority=0x32ff
max_framebuffer_width=2048
max_framebuffer_height=1536
framebuffer_width=2048
framebuffer_height=1536
framebuffer_depth=24
framebuffer_ignore_alpha=1
config_hdmi_boost=7
gpu_mem=192
Others have used a different pixel frequency limit 206MHz, but that does not work for me.
Thank you for all the help.
Kind regards,
Dylan
