When I look at the picture underneath it looks like the inkshield is stacked on the Arduino but the RAMPS isn’t. May I ask how you managed to connect both boards to the MEGA?\n\n[P4118757]\nThanks for your quick reply, it helps a lot.\n\nKind regards,\nCas van Schaik\n\n\nVan: Pwdr<mailto:notifications@github.com>\nVerzonden: woensdag 13 december 2017 06:39\nOnderwerp: Re: [Pwdr/Pwdr-Model-0.1] Calibration issues (#41)\n\nThe stepSize van be changed in the Arduino firmware source, after that, it\nneeds to be uploaded to the Arduino Mega.\n\nThe stepSize determines how much the printhead moves, basically controlling\nthe printer resolution.\n\nIf you were able to move the steppers in the GUI, the connection/interface\nbetween Arduino and RAMPS is fine.\n\nYou mention you’d like to calibrate your printer, could you point out what\nexactly you’d like to do?\n\nThanks,\nAlex\n\nOn Tue, 12 Dec 2017 at 02:53, gus <notifications@github.com> wrote:\n\n> Hi all,\n>\n> I am using an arduino 2560, a RAMPS 1.4 and an inkshield (\n> http://nicholasclewis.com/projects/inkshield/theory/) to operate the pwdr\n> printer.\n>\n> I have been trying to understand the firmware and processing GUI in order\n> to calibrate the printer but despite best effort, I am still quite newby\n> when it comes to software.\n> The usersmanual states ''Currently, the only way to change the parameters\n> is by hardcoding them in the Arduino parameter declarations''\n> To me that sounds like the stepsize should be changed in the firmware,\n> however I can only make the steppers move using the Processing GUI\n> individualy which doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the\n> declerations in the firmware.
