Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

Hey folks,
I just updated firmware as in the new Youtube video, went step by step with the SeemeCNC youtube video.
( another awesome step by step video btw! )

Only problem I have is the bed and Hot end are not heating up now when I turn them on.
If I hit RUN on a project it will just attempt to print immediately even though nothing has heated up.

Any idea what I have to change or did wrong?
I put the PID settings in, even did a New M303 S200 and put in new results but it may not have even heated up during the PID tuning.

thank you!

You used the new version of Arduino, right?

Did you ever have to change the pins.h file for your old firmware? My suspicion is either that your original firmware was modified for a different wiring, or the source files for the new firmware are getting dorked up by a compatibility mismatch with the Arduino software.

Did you select the correct Arduino? Should be the Mega 2560 or Mega ADK option.



I make no claim to be a firmware expert, those are just my blind guesses.

Thanks for the reply!

Yes using the new Arduino, with the new files and Repetier is up to date as well, I went step by step with the video

Never changed the pins.h file

The printer runs but just the heating doesn't, triple checked the com port.
I'm using Mac he stated in the video something about using a slower baud rate possible I have is set to 250000 as I always had and it ran properly

I'm getting this SD init failure in the startup though

Check you don't have "Dry Run" enabled in Repetier host.
If not the next question is do the LEDs come on?

I'm not sure where the dry run is in Repetier but in Arduino I have

byte debug_level = 6; ///< Bitfield defining debug output. 1 = echo, 2 = info, 4 = error, 8 = dry run., 16 = Only communication, 32 = No moves


No the Red lights are not coming on.
I just used the printer today before the update and it worked then didn't after the update.

Does that help at all?
Thank you

On the Mac dry run, a button along the top on the right in repetier host, if it's set, nothing heats and the extruder doesn't extrude.

YOU DID IT AGAIN!!!

You're right it was on I don't know how that was clicked

Thank you so much!
