Hi there, I was wondering if someone could help me, I have a k40 which I’ve installed a skr v1.4 turbo board into and have it running with smoothieware but I am looking to install grblhal because it looks like a better firmware . The problem I am having is that I am falling at the first hurdle an…

i’m also trying to compile grblhal with arduino ide but have no luck. btw i think is not possible to compile grblhal with vscode

Yes it can be done it says in the docs because vscode has platformio I just can’t make head or tail how to do it lol

I think it’s all about getting the environment right in the ini file

Well i have now installed grblhal on my skr v1.4 turbo board but i used one of the precompiled binaries on github ,all i have to do now is figure out how to stop the steppers locking up when the machine is turned on and get it to home after i have tested the endstops . I the a command i can send to…

i don’t know if works in GRBL or GRBLhal but the Marlin command to see the endstop’s state is M119, you can try

hmmm no i tested it, M119 is an unsupported command

From what I’ve read grblhal expects to see normally closed limit switches so I just need to revert that which I shall try tomorrow hopefully.

This was discussed in another Topic. Don’t know if this holds for GrblHAL but worth a shot.
