Marlin 1.1.2 RC8 BugFix Branch May 2017 for Sunhokey Prusa i3

thingiverse

Sunhokey Prusa i3 (2015 model) Marlin 1.1-RC8 Bug Fixed Firmware configs. I used to run Repiter firmware for a long time, which was way outdated - from the year 2014, I believe. So I decided to switch to mainstream, uptodate Marlin. At first, I thought I'd made a huge mistake - I lost my original firmware and got overwhelmed by all the new features and options to set up... along with a whole bunch of bugs that came with default settings. But now I'm happy. So, here's the short version: it took me 4 days of reading forums and trying to figure out what was going on. Installation: Download the official uptodate Marlin firmware from the RC Bug Fix branch (don't use the 1.1.0 RC8 branch!) from Github: https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/tree/RCBugFix 2.a Download Arduino IDE 1.6+ 3. Connect your Prusa i3 to a computer via USB. 4. Open Arduino IDE and select "Marlin" as the board type. 5. Navigate to the firmware file you downloaded in step 2 and upload it to your printer. 6. Once uploaded, navigate to Configuration.h in the Marlin directory and add the following lines at the bottom of the file: // Define your temperature limits #define TEMP_MIN_HEATING 0 #define TEMP_MAX_HEATING 250 #define TEMP_MIN_COOLING 0 #define TEMP_MAX_COOLING 150 7. Save and upload the new firmware to your printer. 8. Once uploaded, navigate to Configuration_adv.h in the Marlin directory and add the following lines at the bottom of the file: // Define your temperature limits #define TEMP_MIN_HEATING 0 #define TEMP_MAX_HEATING 250 #define TEMP_MIN_COOLING 0 #define TEMP_MAX_COOLING 150 9. Save and upload the new firmware to your printer. That's it! Your Sunhokey Prusa i3 should now be running uptodate Marlin firmware with all the features and options you need to get started with your 3D printing journey.
