Mendelmax 1.5 With MKS base v1.5 (RAMPS 1.4) -Klipper0.10.0

sainsmart Coreception 300 with Klipper. This will hold general installation and config

1. Get printer and setup with Bltouch in Z+ endstop spot .
2. get Debian Pc/laptop/rpi/orangepi/ect/ect
3. install OS (i chose debian 11 and used KIAUH to install klipper/mainsail/moonraker)
4. compile klipper for your mcu which should be a mega 2450 board on stock coreception.
5. run "make menuconfig", setup for the mcu mega, stock settings work great.
6. run "make"
7. "make flash" works fine. upload to board if you have USB setup.
8. copy over printer.cfg which contains all pinouts to control printer as well as macros for calibration and setup
9. if your using ubuntu and cannot find your MCU path
10. verify all printer components and tune extruder/Bed PID
11. Setup Extruder Steps (if Not Stock)
12. Setup ZOffset/probe calibrate
13. testprint
14. Setup pressure advance
15. Every Pres_adv change retune retraction (click here for FW_retract tuning which i recommend)
16. setup the Rpi to ALSO be a secondary MCU for resonance testing
17. Check your Resonance
18. Check resonance to check belt tension on coreXY machines
19. testprint
20. setup Start and end Gcodes (also check the included ones)
21. enjoy

some commands used to get everything setup

sudo apt-get install git -y cd ~/klipper/ make menuconfig make ls /dev/serial/by-id/* sudo service klipper stop cd ~ git clone https://github.com/th33xitus/kiauh.git ./kiauh/kiauh.sh

i ended up using spi 5 and needed these commands on my Rpi to active spi5 dtoverlay=spi5-1cs dtparameter=cs0_pin=12

PID_CALIBRATE HEATER=extruder TARGET=170 PID_CALIBRATE HEATER=heater_bed TARGET=60

TUNING_TOWER COMMAND=SET_RETRACTION PARAMETER=RETRACT_LENGTH START=0 FACTOR=0.05 #this test will test retract length from 0 to 5 on a 20mm tower

##sources ramps pinout for mks 1.5

1. copied a lot from this

2. beanisfat leaves a comment i use

3. more config discussion inclusing making 2208 uart and coreception

4. GREAT klipper print tuning guide i found after doing all this

5. if your using ubuntu and cannot find your MCU path
