Usage Tutorial
Install Dependencies
warning
- No need to execute for FLY host, it already comes with the accelerometer dependency package
- Must execute for non-FLY hosts! It is recommended to operate using SSH tools such as
MobaXterm_Personal
-
Please execute the commands below in order to install dependencies
-
Note that depending on the CPU performance, this may take a long time, up to 10-20 minutes. Please wait patiently for the installation to complete. In some cases, the installation may fail if the motherboard's RAM is too low.
sudo apt install python3-numpy python3-matplotlib libatlas-base-dev
~/klippy-env/bin/pip install matplotlib numpy
Test Accelerometer
- Homing is required before execution
- Enter the command below in the console
ACCELEROMETER_QUERY
- For multiple accelerometers, you can specify one to test with
ACCELEROMETER_QUERY CHIP=<ADXL>
, where<ADXL>
should be replaced with the corresponding accelerometer name - If errors occur, please check wiring and configuration
- A normal output is shown in the image below
- This means you can now proceed with measuring resonance compensation
Calibrate Accelerometer
- Home the printer
- Enter the command below in the console to start automatic calibration for X and Y axes
SHAPER_CALIBRATE
- After calibration is complete, execute the command below to save the data
SAVE_CONFIG
- The calibration process may take some time, please wait patiently
- If you wish to calibrate only one axis, you can use the command below
SHAPER_CALIBRATE AXIS=X
tip
Note! If the printer vibrates violently during testing, please press the emergency stop or send M112
to stop immediately
-
Excessive accel_per_hz can cause intense vibration, you can appropriately reduce it
[resonance_tester]
accel_per_hz: 50 # Default value is 75
