Topic: Looking for some Da Vinci 1.0 Motherboard Identification

Hello, I have a non working Da Vinci 1.0 so I thought I would use the guts of the machine and put in a Ramps 1.4.    I have been looking for a picture or tutorial on converting Da Vinci 1.0 to a Ramps 1.4/Amega 2560.  Does anyone have a picture identifying the wires plugged in to the original motherboard of the Da Vinci 1.0?

Re: Looking for some Da Vinci 1.0 Motherboard Identification

This process has yet to be documented although many including myself have done it. The connectors are labeled, it is just a matter of ohming the wires out and figure out which one are which for the sensors in regard to ground, power, and signal. The pins for the motor connectors can be ohmed out from the driver board where they are list A1 A2 and B1 B2. A being A phase of course and B being B phase.

You will also have to buy opto sensors as well as the stock sensors will not work with a RAMPS. It's really not that hard, just takes patience and double and triple checking your work.
