Thanks, I’m looking forward to using this board in a few days and it’s been nice to get this detailed info!

How to use the ktemp port on GTR V1.0, can I replace it for the extruder E sensor?

[scidprinthome]

Is there any advantage to adjust the microsteps to 64 in stead of mulitplying the units/mm by a factor of for? Both would give the same result, wouldn't they?

By the way: great explanation as usual...

Could you do a video on the Raspberry Pi interface? I would also like to see a video on the M5 v1.0 Expansion Board for the GTR v1.0.

Nice sweet holly mamma ;) thank you for the review but do not know where to use it:( for 3d printer with 1 extruder skr 1, 4 is perfect :)

Hello good vidio very informative, but I wanted to ask if it is also possible to connect 3 zetmotors to the board, because the other connections are called E1 and E2 can you just put the z motors in there or is that not possible?

[zirkumflexXx]

Can I use this video also as a guide for the configuration of the TMC2209? Or do I have to change something? Except the name of the Motor Stepper.

Why am I getting a TMC connection error at the bottom of the LCD?

Hey Ed, noob question, I've seen a lot of videos talking about soldering the three PDN/UART heads underneath each TMC, in order to work with UART. Is that still necessary for the GTR v1.0? Cause my 2208s did not come pre-soldered
Thanks! Your videos are lifesavers

[martindavidson]

have you used E1 as a second Z driver? if so what did you change in Marlin to get it to work

[douletap]

why keep putting "m5 v1.0" in the tittle when you never set it up with the drivers on the m5 v1.0???

can You make movie how to connect BIGTREETECH-S42A-V1.0 to BTT GTR1.0?
