Re: FilaWinder Documentation

Did you find the USB port?  Does the control board look like the pictures in the documentation?  The USB port is the silver part near the bottom edge of the board-

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/sc/adgnwgzjp26xgsa/ikthVNcd-5/0?dl=1&token_hash=AAE3S4xerqwy-SDlWeCsJLDHTWFYRv96D0o2D4DKuJ2rvA

When you switch it on, do any of the LEDs light up?  Check to make sure that the metal tabs near the power plug haven't bent over and touched anything.

Try this link for the firmware- https://www.dropbox.com/s/4f88bmykw52ey … er_v8a.zip
It automatically includes the libraries, which are what causes the errors you posted.  With version 8a you can set it to 3mm by putting a jumper on the pair of pins (paired vertically) at D12 at the bottom of the board. 

If you still want to use v6_3mm (which does not require the jumper) you will need to install the libraries into Arduino.  Download -

https://www.dropbox.com/s/w18eoev8yxn1sdh/PID_v1.zip
https://www.dropbox.com/s/oikdvgforwgdb … ensors.zip

Then go to Sketch / Import Library / Add Library and point it to the two zip files you downloaded.  You might need to close and open Arduino for it to take effect.

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

Hello

sorry I had now found the USB port.
Is it necessary to always upload a firmware? If no on it?
When I connect a power supply (12V 1A ) goes to none of the lights.
When I connect via the USB port are on the lights on the board.

Well, I tried to load their last firmware high.
Again error :

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

Where find i the jumper???

55

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

I started including the jumpers after I made that change, which must have been after yours shipped.  If you don't have any jumpers on hand, then you would need to use v6_3mm.  Those errors are still because the QTR and PID libraries are not seen by Arduino.  Did you download them and use Sketch/Import Libraries/Add Library as I said, and restart Arduino?

If no power is getting to the electronics, then the most likely problem is the power switch.  The easiest way to test is to take the wire for the Auto/Manual switch and plug it into PWR and see if that switch works.  If you have a multimeter, then you could also use that to see if the power switch is working.

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

http://www.ebay.de/itm/like/27131556642 … mp;viphx=1

You mean those jumpers or?

Can you show where these jumpers must be set for myself?

When I try to upload 6_3 comes again .. the same error
Everything just inserted into the folder as in the other version.

57

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

It's this kind of jumper-
http://www.jameco.com/webapp/wcs/stores … _112432_-1
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/sc/8xis175ddennxwa/Xu27JvF2wx/0?dl=1&token_hash=AAGbRDw9NifgOBwRj1zjM8Hg4dBjrtUQwW8wzDVu-L52TQ

For the libraries, got to the Sketch Menu.  Choose Import Library.  Choose Add Library.  Choose QTRSensors.zip  Do the same thing for PID_v1.zip.  Adding them to the same folder for v6 doesn't work because there is a small change to the code that tells it to look there.

None of it will matter without power to the board, so check to see if there is a problem with the power switch.

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

Then I have to look that I find so a jumper in Germany.
That with the power supply I have solved with a different power supply. I can only adjust the lateral movement.
The engine is not running, is this normal? Or is the firmware?

Only with the firmware upload is still not working: (Do I have to put in there with Zip.files sketch?

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

Whats the sketchmenu?
In arduino or?

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

so the firmware I get net uploaded. I am probably too stupid for.
When V8a version but you go too.

If a plug is where I solder the two ends together no jumper?
What's the difference?
I still have a plug of the Ramps 1.4 left.

62

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

vino85 use this firmware-

https://www.dropbox.com/s/jx4rii5hintpj … mm_v9a.zip

It is set for 3mm filament only, libraries are included and do not need to be installed.

If the winder isn't working right, upload this firmware-

https://www.dropbox.com/s/8u9jl78rwkn9y … mm_v9b.zip

With this firmware you can go in the Arduino software to Tools / Serial Monitor and get a display of the status of the buttons and other functions.  You can continue to run the winder with the 9b firmware, but be aware that the sensor responds a little slower.  If the filament gets jerked away from the sensor suddenly, it may not notice and keep the motor running.


If you have a jumper you can run this firmware-
https://www.dropbox.com/s/9p3b4j7jo4uks … er_v9a.zip

The default is 1.75mm filament.  If you put on a jumper as shown in the picture above, the guide will be set for 3mm filament.  If you put a jumper on the pins next to the jumper in the picture it will enter troubleshooting mode where it outputs the status to the serial monitor.

If you are running 1.75mm filament and need to enter troubleshooting mode, but don't have a jumper, upload this firmware-

https://www.dropbox.com/s/i26evw6jvd0gb … er_v9b.zip

It has the troubleshooting mode enabled permanently.

To recap-
FilaWinder_v9a  Is the current default firmware.  Use a jumper to enter 3mm mode, and use a jumper to turn troubleshooting mode on

FilaWinder_v9b  The default firmware with troubleshooting mode always on for people running 1.75 who don't have a jumper handy.

FilaWinder_3mm_v9a  3mm mode always on for people running 3mm who don't have a jumper

FilaWinder_3mm_v9b  3mm mode always on, troubleshooting mode always on for people running 3mm who don't have a jumper.

Here is what Serial Monitor looks like in Troubleshooting Mode-

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

i all
i use the v8b file  , when  the power is on the  motor start continously and i can't stop it or reduce the speed with  potentionmeter ,but  the servo run correctly.what is the function of magnet? can i shuntit with  "ILS"
regards
fredaxe

64

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

Can you run it plugged in to the computer and watch the serial monitor?  What does it say for Knob and Mot Speed?
You can also try the 9b firmware - https://www.dropbox.com/s/i26evw6jvd0gb … er_v9b.zip.  v9 runs the motor faster which will help it run fast enough for your ExtrusionBot.

The magnet triggers a hall sensor at the top edge of the control board once each rotation of the spool.  This tells the guide when to move.

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

like this
does i add library or it's do it automatycally  with the v9b ?
sorry formy english!

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

hi
ok i try the v9b
and the librarie is automatically
thx
after a lot of tests   the mod  with ILS works fine when magnet does 1 turn en when is just before " ils  bulb" the servo move +1
but the motor doesn't move when i turn knob

Thank you for your help.
I just do not understand.
Had still nowhere as problems with the electronics.

Now I have 3mm_9a the firmware is loaded

USB and off power supply. Because it makes Penk and the printed board, is smoked. Where I have drawn it, right after the supply.

Have nothing done differently than yesterday.
What can you do now?

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

USB off and Power 12V on i mean

Sorry for my english

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

ok so i've testing again
i've doing the same things like your video "filawinder operation on youtube"
auto switch on
power on
stay push buttom left and move knob for left end position
after stay push buttom right and move knob for  right  position
after stay push buttom central ,move knob for central position
hold all
move knob to mini position
manual switch on
push buttom central 1 sec and move up and down * 5   filament in front ldr
after move up knob mini to maxi to contro speed motor-----here my motor doesn't move  no speed control

after auto switch  on


HELP   please,?!!!!!!!!

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

Fredaxe-

Try running with the USB plugged in.  In the Arduino software, choose Serial Monitor from the tool menu.  You should get a window as shown in the previous post.  Does the number next to "Knob" change as you turn it?  Is the number next to "Mot Speed" changing, but the motor doesn't move?  Or does the "Mot Speed" number stay 0?

Will the motor turn in Auto mode when you move filament in front of the sensor?

What can you do now?

I don't understand "penk".  Are you saying the trace on the electronics burned in the place you marked in the picture?  Can you take a picture?  I can send a new board, but it might not be useful if we don't know why the first one burned and the second gets burned as well.

When you plugged in the power supply that came with the kit, which didn't work, did the green light on the power supply turn on?

Check the two metal tabs near the upper right corner of the Arduino.  Have either of them bent over and touched anything?

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

Good morning Ian our helper

What have I done wrong?

Re: FilaWinder Documentation

With what voltage the motor is driven?
This has never shot!

When I go to it via USB power lights display, but it does nothing more. If I'm off by power supply does nothing more.
