Kuroi Voron โนะโมโนกาตาริ ch.4 Electronics & Setting Up
Chapter 4 : Electronics (+ Moving Parts & Mounting) & Setting up
Next we need to flash the klipper firmware to the squidward. I need to makefile and smth on pc then load it on micro sd card, put it on this thing power this up. It should take a while for flashing and should return something as manual says. Let's do it . . .
Just came back and try again, won't work
Back to the beginning, on the frame building process. I also print and assemble on 4 z driver gearbox (also be a foot). As you seen it on some picture after I finished the frame.
Bones and flesh are ready, It need something to make it movit movit. This is where veins, brain, and soul comes in.
Ok f**k it, lets start with viens and brain.
It require comething to think : Orange pi 3 LTS
It can't help, I really can't find any ras pi at that time. Nobody gets it, some people sell their second hand one overpriced, some people cry for begging some to sell as they need to finish their project, most people were move to othe kind of pi. So do I. But to be fair, this sbc kinda over killed for voron. Its should be a host for my home assistance actually. You know you can whatever as long as its called computer.
It require something to control 7 NEMA! : BTT Octopus v1.1
Nothing, this guy is too popular in making this kind of machine. We'll talk about this guy after this
The heart : Chinese switching, 220VAC to 24 VDC, 24VDC to 5 VDC
Nothing on this, just optimus prime
Well, I start this with make a mounting. Attached two DIN rail, voron provided all of the printed part for mount these stuff on the DIN rail. Accept Orange pi, fine I'll do it myself
Only best pic I found on thsi process, Mounted power module and BTT board
Orange pi 3 LTS Mounting + DIN Mount.
I lost the file, DIY then
Sh*t got covid, anyway
Make firmware
Squidward + Motor Driver Installed
Hmm interesting, I was trying to do this with all method it have. It should return an sd card with FIRMWARE.CUR isn't it. Anyway this is boring, I dismantle this watch.
Good
Ok getting back to the firmware. I did a research on this kind of problem, its appeared to be a group of people having the exact same problem. Some told it was a hardware problem, some said it was from this regulator not functional. I never find a solution, even I talk to vendor he said "its broken bro maybe you short circuit it with the din rail". I'm quite sure its not.
Left : My index finger, Right : This man (regulator)
Anyway I went to get my NAUI license (Covid gone)
The Scuba Tank, Its can held up the air up to 300 bars.
(The last breath of a tank feeling is scary)
You know, in the maker's community theres a rule said "Cheap Good Fast, Pick Two". In this case, it will be fast and good, so it won't cheap. F**k it, buy a new one.
There you go
After this I'm not gonna mention that much, it just straight forward. Its a wire this to that thing. But remember this aren't a design with a concern of safety of anything, its just works (If I not wrong, the voron designer himself or the design team mentioned about this on the manual).
For extra stuff, the SSR relay. Since I'm in a hot hotter hottest zone, for heating safety I order an extra heatsink for it. And make a little spacer for fitting it on the rail
Maybe that it, all parts connect. Even have a LAN port, lucky that I just back from computer networks class and today was practicing to make an rj45 male/female connector. I able to take it home so. . . why not.

Low voltage rock n roll
Bones, Flesh, Heart, Brain. Now you this thing almost can move just need a soul witha will. Let's config this stuff, voron 2.4 have a printer config template on github repo. Copy and paste, try to make eveything works, reference from datasheet. Kinda simple, also general tuning and macros.
Well its finished, I think
Me, Adam, & Eve
Well K, I go hiking
Extra
While all of this happen I was also printing the panel mounting. The stock one from voron design was a fix design. But I think I gotta take those thing in and out more than 3 times. For better QoL I'll use mod part. The 2020 Snap Latches its just works well.

Back to the beginning, on the frame building process. I also print and assemble on 4 z driver gearbox (also be a foot). As you seen it on some picture after I finished the frame.
