Pro tip: In the newest version of marlin (2.0.6.1 for me) the config directory just has a readme with a link to the actual config files...

[spikedominguez]

thanks soo much, i was looking for a simple tutorial just for a simple upgrade but all other videos was very confusing, yours is easy well explained and easy to understand even if my main lenguaje is not english!!,

[ianfs]

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Its a little overwhelming trying to tackle this stuff sometimes.

[yusufc.]

Please shoot same video for cr-10s pro and which screen firmware install for stock marlin 2?

[danidanimarcel]

Is there a way to completely disable the heated bed?

[helge]

No use to change jerk setting when its not active (un - commented) I did un-comment that but still being just a little unsure if it was right thing in doing so, I have a printer that is a working progress and it has its fair shear of issues, and i am learning as i go along so every setting is a small mystery. what it does as there are quite a few to go true when setting up from scratch there ar no build for Zonestar With skr pro v 1.1 with dual extrude option anywhere i have found .
The printer is finally printing but there is still som tweaking and fine adjustments left. So this type of videos are priceless and useful so thank`s for making this.

[alvinjohnson]

so how are you expected to get it onto the board? for someone new to this it was 20 minutes wasted.

[CalGoldBassin]

I got to 4:38 and my computer wont allow me to copy the files from the Creality CR-10s folder and paste into the Marlin folder, the paste button is grayed out. Any clue as to how to fix this? Thanks

I got this error first time I tried to follow this guide:
Arduino:1.8.11 (Windows 10), Kort:"Arduino Mega or Mega 2560, ATmega2560 (Mega 2560)"
fatal error: U8glib.h: No such file or directory


#include <U8glib.h>





compilation terminated.

I solved it by opening up Sketch -> Include Library -> Manage Library and there I just searched for U8glib and installed it.
Just incase someone else got this error... =)

Thanks. I updated my printer software yesterday with the never version. No issues

[JamesFraley]

Good video and configuration. Did you ever do the follow up on actually had to install the software?

[angelospataro]

Hi THL. As a first thank you for your good work, I have already received a lot from your videos. I'm still running Creality's custom firmware for the CR10S with BlTouch and this is my first experience with Marlin. My question to you is: I have a CR10S with Bondtech extruder and a BlTouch v3. Now I follow the above video and that all goes well. Adjusting the E-step for the bondtech extruder is going well. But with the BlTouch v3 I get stuck. I have seen another video of you installing the BlTouch and customizing it in Marlin, but it looks different than in this Marlin 2.0. Is there a possibility that you make a short movie to set up the BlTouch in marlin 2.0.5. You would do me and many others a great favor. With kind regards A. Spataro

[DavidSmith-exbg]

I'm finding a real challenge translating your video to get it setup on a Mac computer. I'm getting there slowly . half way though it so far .

If anyone gets an error saying the file extension is too long, this can be fixed by just not using the Arduino IDE. I used VScode, and it worked!

[alklein]

Thank you, Richard. After almost 50 years of developing software, I kept looking at the download page and going to the config files. Sometimes, I just tell you ... (By the way, around 11:08, that's called "comment out", since 2 slashes [or a /* in front and */ at the end] is a comment.)

You don't say (neither does Marlin) whether BL Touch was integrated into that software, so I guess I'll have to read all the documentation at the site and, if it's not there, go through the entire source code, to see. Unless you know. (I have a hex file for Marlin with BL Touch, but being able to configure it my way is better.)

(Edit after 14:12 - BL Touch is in there - I jumped the gun ... again.)

(Storage space includes anything you may add to the firmware later, dynamic memory is buffers, etc.)

[fylith]

Mine stopped recognizing the printer. Says com5 can't be reached. What can I do to fix and or trouble shoot this issue?

[mattkemper]

Follow this video a thousand time. Used two different windows lap tops and even a Mac book. Keep getting — Error complling for board arduino mega or mega 2560. Also that example file is no longer there when downloading marlin 2.0. Absolutely frustrating!!!!

[adamk]

@TheFirstLayer How did you connect cabling ??? please be so kind and share link to this essential step i have cr10s pro and main board has different pins

[cptwingnut]

Hi, great tutorial, thank you. Whenever I try to compile I keep receiving a ‘The filename or extension is too long’ error.
Has any got a fix for this?

[ivanxucin]

Great help, I´ve had a hard time finding this kind of stuff on youtube. Thanks a lot!
