Running a Solidoodle 2 with the Printrboard Rev e, and a E3D hot end. Purchased a Reprap smart controller, and un-commented the define within the Marlin config.h (having downloaded the firmware from the above "update firmware" site).
It then refused to compile with a "BLEN_C not defined" error. Looking through the pins.h, the Printrboard section didn't have the "ultipanel" or "newpanel". Found a thread where someone had put up the pins.h including this area, but the pin settings for the rest of the definitions in this section (for the "81" motherboard) were different.
It did compile, just got to try and flash the firmware now (my network failed just as I was looking for the instructions), so should be interesting to see what comes out.
The Reprap LCD controller came with a "teensylu" adapter, which consisted of a pair of ribbon cables which plugged into the back of the controller, then to a pair of sockets which connect up to the "EXP1" and "ICSP" pins on the edge of the Printrboard. Well, they do when you solder them in.
I am thinking that this may work, may fail dismally, may fail spectacularly, or may require a whole bunch of different pin settings. How do I determine what pin signals are being received by the board (other than the tried and true engineering mechanism of "suck it and see"?
And is it likely to go spectacularly and horribly wrong, or just be a bit of a fizzer?
