Topic: [SOLVED] M98 and M99 backlash compensation commands?
I want to try out the "M99 Xmm Ymm Zmm Emm" and see how backlash can be reduced or eliminated via software.
However, my firmware (Solidoodle 3 Marlin firmware, Solidoodle 4 printrboard Rev E motherboard) appears to not support that command, or it does something else.
While M99 allows to set the backlash compensation values in mm, M98 prints out the current values.
Typing "M98" in Manual Control of Repetier-Host I get "N13 M98 *0" (13 and 0 change when I try again).
If this means my firmware doesn't support hysteresis, please tell me how I can modify the firmware source to enable it.
If I'm doing it wrong, please tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Another user gets this:
When I type M98 I get this, but then again, I'm running on a RAMPS board, not a stock Solidoodle board.
