Custom C gcodes

Andrew edited this page Apr 20, 2024 · 4 revisions

This firmware implements some special custom g-codes to allow you to configure parameters not available in normal standard Marlin g-codes. You can include them in your G-code scripts or send to the printer, for the last you need to use a host/terminal with support for non-standard G-codes or create a .gcode file and "print" it.

Note: A special version of Pronterface is needed to support non-standard G-codes: https://github.com/mriscoc/Pronterface-PFEd/releases/tag/PFEd-20230517

  • C10 : Mark the g-code file as a Configuration file to avoid confirm to print and print done dialogs (at least one space is currently required after the C10).
  • C11 En Rn Gn Bn : colorize UI elements (C11 E0 to update the screen)
  • C29 Ln Rn Fn Bn Nn Tn : set probing mesh inset (Left, Right, Front, Back) in mm. N amount of grid points of the mesh leveling and T the probing temperature (T0 doesn't change the current bed temperature)
  • C100 Xn Yn Zn : setup minimum physical limits
  • C101 Xn Yn Zn : setup maximum physical limits
  • C102 Xn Yn : setup bed size
  • C104 U1 Tn : unlock the maximum hotend temperature temperature to ###°C (limited by thermistor calibration table CAUTION, the stock hot-end doesn't support more than 260°C due to the PETG/PTFE degradation.)
  • C108 : cancel screens waiting for user simple confirmation
  • C125 Xn Yn Zn : setup the park position
  • C250 Pn : enable or disable preview screen (needs HAS_GCODE_PREVIEW)
  • C412 Mn : set run-out sensor active state (M0:LOW, M1:HIGH, M2:MOTION)
  • C510 Un : lock/unlock the screen (C510 U1 to unlock)
  • C562 En : invert the Extruder (E1 to invert)
  • C810 An Bn Cn Dn En : sets up the toolbar shortcuts A..E to functions 0..n (0 disable that shortcut)
  • C851 Sn [Zn] Mn : Set probe Z feed speed (S) in cm/s, Multiple probing (Mn>1) or disables it (M0), in manual mesh version, Z parameter can be used to set a manual Z-offset.

After changing any parameter, send an M500 to save to EEPROM and make it permanent.
