Just put my SKR v2 in my Ender 3 Pro, The drivers are CRAZY SILENT with these step motors and it runs SOOOO much smoother and faster. I was super concerned about building a new firmware for my board but this tutorial was perfect and taught me a TON!!!! Such a great upgrade. Gonna put in my BLTouch tomorrow or sometime next week, I also have the FTF70 7" touchscreen to do but wanted to get this installed and the machine speed up so when I print the casing it doesnt take me forever and I get the best quality. For now this get the thing running flawlessly!! Thanks again.

Possibly the best video on the SKR Mini E3 V2. You get right to the point. Got this board last week and added this and the TFT35 V3 to the ender 5 plus. Got 2 very minor issues related to re configuring a pin for an extra fan and hotend trying to move beyond the the beds x/y bounds. Think this tackles the re configuration issue. Will give that a try later.

Quick warning. Just did this exactly how Chris did it. Found out that the colors for the hot end thermistor and heated bed were swapped. To avoid any problems, do the following: 1. Once configured, set the heated bed to 50c and feel it for any temp change. 2. If it does not change in temp or it shows the temperature of the nozzle increasing, simply swap the connections and repeat. Don't just assume that the wiring is correct like I did. Made the mistake and my heated bed started increasing in temperature almost immediately. Error was given and had to swap the wires. Fixed the issue. Just wanted everyone to know.

I don't see the point on why you did all that procedure for the fan (swapping the connections, swapping the pins in Marlin etc.). I mean: you're still going to have only one Marlin-controlled fan and the other one full-blown. Thus, the overall noise won't be reduced. So, why u did that?

@@ChrisRiley Ok, now I see the point! Thus, I followed your guide and I have inverted the two fan connections on the controller board. Now the hotend fan is Marlin controlled while the controller fan is always on at full speed. But I replaced the latter with a very quiet 40x40x20mm Noctua fan and since I'm sharing the rear case with a Raspberry, I think it's ok to have the fan always on (perhaps I could GPIO contol the fan from the Pi?). Not a life changer while printing, but much more comfortable while idling at least. Tnx allot for your suggestion! :)

So it's really not about max temp as far as the board goes, the hotends, you see 50w heaters, about any mosfet will run it. Now beds, you can really only expect to get around 120c max on DC, and if it's over about 220x220 the load can get really high, above 11amp. That is where you need to look at the loads and consider moving that to an external mosfet. I would have to look up the chip numbers to tell you max load. A lot of us go to AC beds for this reason.

Hello Chris, i have a question. I've installed this board on a CR10-Mini. It was running an SKR 1.4 Turbo before (temporarily since i didn't want to cut up the control box for SD and USB), and it was fine, nothing weird going on. However i had a bunch of issues with the Mini E3. The steppers were receiving the wrong commands. For example X was behaving like Z both in terms of Hybrid Threshold and steps/mm, Z was behaving like either X or Y (couldn't quite tell) and Y seemed to behave like the extruder and got hot AF, even though they were all wired correctly. I didn't want to start from the Ender 3 config and change it for my machine, rather i started from the stock Creality config and changed it for this board. After a day of troubleshooting i found some settings in Marlin that would allow me to get them running proprely (X_SLAVE_ADDRESS 0, Y_SLAVE_ADDRESS 2, Z_SLAVE_ADDRESS 1, E0_SLAVE_ADDRESS 3) and the "best part" is i couldn't find anything regarding the issue on the internet. I still have one nagging issue though. My part cooling fans (i have 2 5015 in parallel and a Noctua 40x20 for the hotend heatsink on a Hero Me Gen5) are buzzing. Sounds like PWM noise, but it's really annoying and loud. Sounds almost like a small speaker. They seem to only buzz below 75%, or maybe it's just the fan noise that masks it at 75% and above, but it didn't seem like it, i tried listening carefully. I don't know about the heatsink fan since i always run that at 100% and it's basically dead silent. I had tried enabling FAST_PWM_FAN in Marlin (Configuration.h) since the description seemed to suggest i might fix my issue, however it doesn't seem to be supported for that chip yet. My question is, do you think this is a "bug" with the board, maybe related to the fact it's running 12v and not 24v (even though it can run in both and they also state it supports the CR10 Mini and original CR10 which are both 12v) or a config issue or a hardware issue on my side (fans or wiring) ? Have you installed it alongside a 12v PSU or encountered this issue with any of your machines ? Curious if maybe you know of a solution for this. Needless to say, neither of these issues presented themselves on the SKR 1.4 Turbo...
@ChrisRiley
4 жыл бұрын
I think it might be a bug on the board, I haven't tried these on 12v yet, but I can almost guess that it has something to do with the new regulator on the board they are using. Not sure what the fix would be.
@crookedtooth6445
4 жыл бұрын
I've had the exact same issues... I just fixed the steppers by comparing the configuration_adv.h with the official marlin branch with the broken one from BTT (the current BTT branch doesn't compile) and from there change stuff to copy the BTT branch. As for the PWM noise. I feel like it's hardware related and seeing that the only major change from V1.2 is the 5V regulator it would seem like a logical source... I run on 12V but it really shouldn't make a difference from running on 24V, if anything the datasheet says the regulator is more efficient at 12V. I think i'll check it out with an oscilloscope next friday and try to figure out were the noise is coming from.

As for the fans, i used SOFT_PWM in Marlin and they're definetly quieter. No longer do i have the annoying electrical whining, however now i've got clicking noise when it pulses at low frequencies (i.e. when you're running the fan slowly)... Could probably tune it by messing with the scale, but it eats into the range of PWM that you can use from what i understood. Anyway, haven't touched the printer in a week or so since i've been very busy with work and other things as of late.

On the STM32 there is no way to do it from the serial I am afraid, you have to hand truck it with the SD card. The STM chip takes some sort of interpetur to flash it.

Hi chris, can I use PC13 (default defined as PS_ON_PIN) for the controller fan? I tried configuring it this way and wired it up with red wire on 24V and black wire on PC13 and it wouldnt work. Is there a restriction on the pins you can use for the controller fan?
@ChrisRiley
3 жыл бұрын
PC13 will be a high pin when used and it 5v. You could use it, but you would need a relay or something like that to be able to run a 24v fan. You MIGHT be able to run a 5v fan if it has very low draw.

@@ChrisRiley As far as I can tell the Mega Zero 2 I'd pretty much the same machine as the Ender 3. They just reversed the location on the Z-Axis drive and power supply. Other than that they are pretty much the same machine. Same screen, same size main board and same print dimensions. I have my Zero 2 which I absolutely love with a passion. It has been such a wonderful printer and the output quality is crazy nice. But the main board is dying on me. I already have the BigTreeTech SKR V1.4 Turbo and the TFT 35 **** LCD and 2209 drivers. I want to use the SKR V1.4 Turbo in my Ender 5+ and continue using the original TFT the 5+ came with. It works great. Then I want to use the new TFT 35*** and the BigTreeTech mini board in my Zero 2. And the really sweet thing is looking at the mini board it appears I won't need to cut on the original Mega Zero 2 housing to make the Micro SD and USB ports to match up with the original boards. "It seems" to be a direct perfect fit from the videos I've watched. But I won't know for sure until I actually buy the board. Well, I guess I'll just go ahead and order it and see what happens. You gotta love Amazon, if it don't fit, it don't cost you a thing to return it and full refund. Great place that Amazon place.

I am on my second v2.0 skr-mini-e3 board and it has failed to boot off the bat. The first board worked great until one day it decided to start throwing Thermal Runaway: E1 error on boot and no matter what I've done it has not fixed. Change basically every wire and piece of hardware I can and try flashing different firmwares, both pre-compiled and compiled by myself. No way I know of around this issue. Bought a second board from Amazon and it arrived brand new. After installing and trying to boot I get a blank screen (all pixels are black on the stock Ender 3 display) an that's it. No beeps, chies, or indication of an issue. Firmware will not flash off any SD card I have tried be i freshly formatted to FAT32 or a card I know works in another board (skr-mini-e3-dip v1.2).
