    i have no experience making circuit board, but i see a few videos in how to do, i have already a pcb board fr4, a laser printer… so i want to try it, im using frytzing to design the circuit, its very easy to use for someone new like me.

    Here we have: updated circuit with caps in the correct position

    I will try tomorrow in a breadboard, you are right i make a mistake when i read the tinyg circuit:( but i have this polarized electrolytics caps from a kit i buy a few months ago. i will update the circuit in dropbox to not confuse other users.

    and again thanks for you help and sorry SecondSource to “stole” your post

    Hi,

    Can you take a look to the circuit? i don´t have problems with pinout in due, your pdf is very easy to understand, just to confirm if the circuit are ok, like you suggest i take a look in tinyg V8 circuit. i also add my touchplate.

    Hi cmcgrath5035,

    Thanks a lot, it will be very helpful, and it will be a nice poster to put over the CNC to help me during my troubleshooting and tests in Tinyg2. i will try to design firstable in fritzing and share with you just in case. Thanks again.

    I already tried the touch plate widget in chilipeppr and it´s working great.

    Hi @SecondSource, thanks for your tips, i will try tonight after the work.

    I´m using this limit switch It´s a microswitch with two contacts NO and NC, in mine is connected in NO contacts.

    1. I will try tonight
    2. Can you explain how do you suggest to connect them?
    3. I use shielded cables but like i´m still testing Tinyg2 i have not connected the shield to ground, i can try it.
    4.I have to do the same like you, i’m still sending all settings manualy with chilipeppr…How do you set the NO or NC contact settings?i try sending the same command from tinyg but is not recognise, i send the command $ST=0

    Was cool if the forum had a section dedicate to tinyg2:)

    Hi @SecondSource, sorry to hijacking your post but can you explain how do you wiring your limit switch?i have also a tinyg2 running in arduino due with 75.02 firmware, i have already tried wiring my Ymin & Ymax NO Switch to GND and Pin 16 & pin 17, i try in chilipeppr configuring with Limit only and Home Only, with “limit mode only” i have random triggers and in home only when i try to homing my y axis nothing happens.

    Hi,

    I can confirm that tinyg2 and Gaups work very well, i m still testing but i’m very happy with it and i will recomend this configuration to other users and this modification is very easy to do.

    I have now to wiring my limit switch, another war…

    You are right cmcgrath5035, it´s the first time i come to synthetos forum and i´m very happy with the people here where people helps each other, i will come back and trying to do my best to help others like me.

    it´s look like your are right again about the point 5:) i don´t need to change the pins, i think it´s the problem with my pulley that induce me in error.

    I have already change my Gaups board Pin Vdd to IOREF in Due instead of 5V.

    im still testing tinyg2, i have both version compiled running in chilipeppr/tinyg but i have some problems with edge branch:

    In Edge branch i cannot run helloWorld in chilipeppr but i can Jog and put some gcode manually but with master branch i can do the helloworld…i have to run more test to find the problem, i use always the same setting file.

    DO you know what is better branch to use?i´m using edge branch

    I will check that tomorrow, i don´t understand that when i configure the gaups board for the first time, thanks to open my mind for this option:)the first time i configure that i was thinking in this jumper like y with one stepper or y with two stepper like i have, i have to check again the gaups wiki.

    i have also an arduino due and compiled the project in win8.1, i´m not using the master branch, i used the edge branch, the first time i try to compiled i have some issue with missing files, i delete the folder and clone again the branch edge, the second time i do that i have no problems, try do that:

    1) remove your g2 folder
    2)Install github for windows.
    3)open git shell (it´s cmd shell with git commands)
    4)create a directory where you want with typing mkdir “name directory” and enter in this directory
    5)type: git clone -b edge https://github.com/synthetos/g2.git
    6) wait a fee moments it will clone the edge branch of tinyg2 to the folder you create, when it finish you can close the git shell.
    7) go to your g2 directory in windows explorer, open folder tinyg2 and open the file tinyG2.cppproj, it will open atmel studio with tinyg2 project
    8)don´t forget to change solution configurator to “gShield” and press Build Solution.

    I´m sorry to explain like this but i don´t know your background and it´s what i do in windows 8.1 to successfully build tinyg2.

    i´m using Atmel Studio 6 (Version: 6.2.1502 – Service Pack 1) and to install tinyg2 drivers you need to reboot in safe mode to install unsigned drivers

    im sorry for lack of information, im using now the edge branch, i made a git clone to edge branch and compiled with new pinout, i change also the spindle pin because is the same of motor 4. its version 75.02. everything is working great, i was able to move each y motor at a time to test it and its working!

    you are right for vdd=5v, im talking with the maker of gaups to fix that, maybe asking him if i can cut the pin connected in pin 5v and make a connection with a wire to ioref in arduino due.
