Took me a while to figure it out but the Sgen L V1.0 LCD EXP1 and EXP2 are on backwards for anything but MKS specific LCD's. I have a guess they are backwards on the V2.0 as well.
Thanks for the showcase of the new board, liking some of the improvements they have made and I will be looking to be buying these from now on instead of the V1.0's
It maybe true. I'll be doing tutorials soon. Been a little busy preparing for the holidays this weekend.
Most of the instructions etc online for the mks gen l and sgen l 1.0 will work with this board as well, ive had one for a few weeks, good so far.
So you're watching all my videos?
@@EdwardBraiman look in the store at MKS
Great.That is what I was looking for.Thank you.
You're welcome.
I have an MKS GenL V2 on an MPCNC running Marlin 2.0. I'd love to see a video on how to install a joystick to jog the x and y axis. Thanks.
Hello, excuse for my English.
I am not correctly understood where to connect the fans?
The cooling fan as well as the filament outlet fan.
It's FAN1 and FAN2, which can be variable?
I am only one Extruder.
Well I found it on my own, I'm too stupid, I hadn't seen the 12 / 24V pins next to the X Motor output.
Too bad they do not go to the end of their numbering.
Power E0 and E1 but FAN 1 and FAN2 as well as E1 thermal and E2 thermal.
Why started at 0 then then at 1 for the fans and probe
Where can I get a marlin version that works with the mks gen 2 v1? Tried all and none have the option of selecting that board ?
What does MCU say on top? MEGA2560?
hi i have just bought a mks gen lvl 2.1,and i have installed a 3d touch for bed leveling.but i cant use it. it it possible for you to guide?
U saved me mate, I am grateful.
You're welcome.
I killed my V1.0 board and am replacing it with a 2.1. My motors are now reversed. Have the pinouts for the motors changed between versions or should I be looking at my firmware?
You and flip connector to stepper or change in configuration.h.
Please help with mks gen 2 v1 cannot select board in marlin. ?keeps failing to mega2560?
You do understand I have a playlist for mks gen L and this is not even same company?
Hi , I am upgrading my custom built 3d printer from 8bit Arduino to 32 bit board.
SKR Mini E3 v2.0 inbuilt 4 TMC2209 - 54$
SKR E3 Turbo inbuilt 5 TMC2209 - 68$
MKS SGen L V2.0 & 4 TMC2209 - 77$
MKS ROBIN NANO V3.0 & 4 TMC2209 -78$
SKR V1.4 Turbo & 4 TMC2209 - 85$
SKR Pro v1.2 & 4 TMC2209 - 89$
These are the boards options that are available in my country. Which board should I get for good performance & value for money.
Depends on what you're building.
Hello there! Got a Tarantula Pro with MKS SGEN L V1.0, i followed your tuto (and configured the files accordingly to my version) but my LCD Display is blank, and i cannot connect to my printer.. :/ My LCD is MKS Mini 12864 lcd.. Do you have an idea?
One cable or both needs to be reversed for notch maybe.
@@EdwardBraiman Ok, now i can connect to my printer, i just defined serial port at -1. Reversed the cables, but still no display. Hope i didn't brick something...
The notched connect is backwards on the board. Meaning the notched side should be inserted 180 degree's from notch on the LCD ribbon connector.
can i connect pinda and how? i got used to skr but sgen is not same.
Hi,
thanks for this video. I was wondering if anyone managed to have the FAN2 pins working in PWM mode with Marlin (I'd to lower the FAN speed). If yes, I will be interrested in how you configured Marlin
BTW, now the MKS SGen L2 code has been merged into Marin 2.0x branch
. I replaced my Ender 3 board with that one, together with TMC2225 drivers (which works without any mods in UART mode on this board)
If you check my MKS sGEN L v1.0 playlist I walk thru the process.
Hello! First of all, thanks for the tutorial. I have a question with it, or maybe more. Can i connect to this board a normal 3d printer with CNC and plus one Laser at the same time for different jobs? I want to use 24v system for the CNC and the 3D printing, i also have a 12v laser with external powersource and panel. It have a 2 pin TTL port and 4 pin with (12v, pwm, gnd, C) connection, but it can run from it's own panel and i can control from the panel. I have one more external motor driver for the CNC spindle (LD-WS4810), than i think i can use from the suply power source directly, and 5x 2209 internal driver for the 6pcs (2xZ) nema 17 motors. I also have one UPS and one PWC modul. Plus 2pcs filament stopper for the two line extruder. Ultimately MKS TS35 2.0 display with wifi. That's the story.. Is this possible somehow? I know everything is possible.. but... :)
Anything is possible. I generally avoid talking about lasers, due to off gasing products. Anything in Marlin firmware should be possible. As for WiFi, I'd use octopi as it's more stable.
@@EdwardBraiman Sounds good. I want to engrave on leather or wood, that is not a big one, just 30w (445-450nm) blue light laser. Is this dangerous to? I bought the board in set with wifi (esp-125) and screen, i hope it will be fine. Thanks for the quick answer btw.
With lasers you should protect yourself from the light and vent gases the laser generates on the materials you're working with. Remember it's about your health and those around you.
@@EdwardBraiman Yes i knew it i need glasses, maybe i need a good ventilation at that room, if i will build it. Thanks for it. Do you have a video from how to connect impossible things on board.. :) How can i use that things wich has seems like no connection port on board? Like 7th motor question, and actually can i use an external motor driver port to place a diferent axis, or that will be working similar than the stepper driver above the external slot? Or the internal slot is connected, maybe it will be get damaged if i connect the external slot?
You might want to look at GTR and M5 version 1.0 by Bigtreetech as I thing you can use upwards of I thing 11 motors.
I have a CR-10S, I'm trying to install it but, I can't figure out where it goes, does it plug into the pins next to 'Servo', or does it go in one of the pins above it, it can't fit into servo, because the connector is a 3 pin, not a 6 pin, and it can fit into the pins above, but the pins above are for the endstops.
What are you trying to connect to the board? If you want to post images on my Discord in the general chat I might have a better idea. The link to Discord should be in video description below.
@@EdwardBraiman My apologies, I had meant to mention that I was trying to connect a filament run-out sensor. I'll join your discord.
There is an old tutorial in my RAMPS 1.4 playlist. It somewhat dated, but covers most of what you're looking for.
I have a MKS Robin Nano V1.2 Board and I uploaded a corrupt .ini file. Is there any way to restore the original factory default setings
Should be similar process, but I've not tried 1.2.
does the SD needs to stay in forever? or is it just used to initially setup the board? so you can just upload new firmware thru the USB?
It needs to stay in.
And if you want to reupload the firmware? can you do that thru the usb cable or do you need to pull out the SD, reupload it to the SD and plug that in?
Try it out and lets me know what happens.
@@EdwardBraiman Sure!, One problem first; I follewed the exact steps in this video but are getting build issues.. it says "No such file or directory". Any ideas if I can fix this? or are you able to mail /upload/send me the working base marlin firmware?
Try my Discord in general chat. If I'm not available, someone there knows.
looks awesome, I just ordered one, but on what voltage does the heatbed out run? 12V or 24V?
Either, but I recommend 12v for simplicity.
ohkee, but doesn't a 24V bed heat up quicker? and what about the hotend? 12V as wel or 24?
That maybe true, but my preference is 12v to avoid issues.
ohkee thanks, and the hotend works on either 12V or 24V as well?
Yes, just slower to heat initially.
There is infinite repetition in the firmware uploading part.
Should I remove the SD card after it has been uploaded?
You want to leave the sd card in. The repetition is by design.
@@EdwardBraiman I'm sorry. I checked with frontface and I uploaded the firmware well.
But I can't connect to 2004 lcd no matter what I do. Can you help me?
Depends on the connection with ribbon cables and Marlin setting for screen.
hello, have you seen the new rumba 32 yet? I think there are so many interesting things hidden in it, don't you think so?
I've not seen a 32 bit Rumba yet.
How to edit the firmware with esp01 wifi module on this board
Probably set serial port, but I'd recommend octopi as it moves it off your computer to print.
Hey there, I just installed an skr 1.3 into my Ender 3, and I get this loud beep and the screen lights up. Could you help me out here, I'm very new to all of this
You understand I have a SKR 1.3 playlist right?
@@EdwardBraiman yes but I didn't find anything for loud beep
Are you referring to an LCD display? What type?
@@EdwardBraiman yes the standard Ender 3 lcd
Not sure how to make Creality work, but I'll experiment and let you know.
I am trying to use this one my sunlu s8 but no luck
MKS SGEN_L V2 and V1 support connect MKS TS35 touchscreen
github.com/makerbase-mks/MKS-SGEN_L-V2/wiki/MKS_TS35
Hello, i have that GEN L V2.0 LPC1769, updated marlin with Vscode. I also want to use it with reprap discount full graph display. But it doesnt work. It sounds like click click sound. And no light no letters on the screen. And if i turn the button red leds on MKS board turns on. I already try changing 1 and 2 plugs. Nothing happened only screen light flickers.
Can anyone please help me? Thanks.
The cable are mounted backwards on MkS sGEN L. You'll need to sand off notch and place in 180 degrees in connector.
@@EdwardBraiman OMG! Thank you very much! That works! Thank you.
@@EdwardBraiman So its me again. Sorry for bothering. Now i cannot use SD slot on my LCD display. I already enabled SDSUPPORT. What can i do?
I'll need to research.
Just tried in live stream and got working.
The Ali Express link ALWAY Says UK
This Supplier/Shipping Company does not deliver to your selected Country/Region.
Thanks I'll try and figure out why. Ebay probably works.
@@EdwardBraiman Only 8 bits
This is a 32 bit board.
@@EdwardBraiman . I must be looking at the wrong board:
www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GEN-L-V2-1-MKS-Smoothieboard-3D-Printer-Control-Board-Motherboard-for-Marlin-MKS/164518074211?hash=item264e0a9763:g:ibcAAOSw2KVfszQV
Combine 2560 and ramps14 on one board, solve the problem that the Ramps14 combination interface is cumbersome and easy to break down.
2.The user can replace the motor drive by himself, support 4988 drive, 8825 drive, TMC2100 drive.
Is this one the correct one ? THANKING YOU 2000%

Can you add blue tooth?
Yes, but not recommended.
@@EdwardBraiman oh okay thanks. I’m using it to control steppers motors nema 17 for a telescope. Online it says that board is compatible with hc-05 Bluetooth module … not sure if it would also work with hm-10 Bluetooth module.
Can I use an Esp-01 on this card?
I think so, but check the pinouts diagram.
You can buy the V2.1 with a WIFI module on Aliexpress
I recommend using a raspberry pi instead.
This so complicated
Only in the beginning, just think in a couple of weeks you'll think it's easy.
@@EdwardBraiman Thanks for the video though.. I'll give it a go and give you feedback :)
Thanks.
