<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — SD4 Motherboard Replacement]]> 2014-11-26T03:42:48Z PunBB https://www.soliforum.com/topic/8447/sd4-motherboard-replacement/ <![CDATA[Re: SD4 Motherboard Replacement]]> RUMBA all the away.  Lots of features not found on the standard SD board, and relatively easy to implement.  There are a few how-to's here, and the firmware is much easier to upload, since it's built on an Arduino board.

Edit:
I must be getting senile.  Just realized that I voted for a RUMBA when I wanted to say RAMPS.  So it's not RUMBA, is RAMPS!

Gotta start taking my pills....

Cheaper and stronger. If you were to have to flash firmware, it would make more sense to not only save money, but also upgrade to a better board.

My question is: will it come with firmware already loaded (i.e. can I swap the motherboards and get right back to work), or will I need to install firmware after the swap?
