Micheal, thanks to you, I now have my floaties on as I jump into the deep end of hardware and firmware customizing. Thanks for all you do. I am going to sign up for patreon to help support you. Your content is very helpful to those of us who haven't had time to read thousands of lines of text on the internet. Your videos are a mass download of information and direction and are a real spring board into what you need to know to take the hobby to the next level. The only other time I have been this close to the bleeding edge was when I was building and flying TriCopters with Gyros and Radio Programming which then led to getting involved with the Copter Control Open Source Project. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge!

Thank you for good quality content. Always informative and worthwhile watching.

[@belenhedderich3330]

Thank you Michael Just what I needed to build confidence on migrating to Marlin 2.0, my SKR mini is on the way but with so many videos spread along this somehow clear things for me. What I would like is a full comprehensive video for SKR Mini, BL Touch, BMG and linear advance, but I guess I need to look at each video apart. Again many thanks for this one!

Thanks Michael! Was trying to flash the new Marlin 2 by the usual method but kept getting all these errors, core missing and such, so im very pleased to see you coming out with this video. Been watching your videos on Ender 3 since you got yours and you convinced me to buy one on your review. Keep up the good work and yeah im a F1 fan too 😉 🇫🇮 living in 🇸🇪

[@Rushmere3D]

VScode is by far the better choice, I'm sure I heard Atom was not going to be supported going forward. In vscode, you don't have to select a default build environment, you can select it as and when you want to build and what's great is that you can build for a different board just by changing the board in configuration.h and build for that environment.

[@TeachingTech]

Thank you, I'll check it out in more detail.

[@lookitsrain9552]

I was going to comment this as well, ATOM simply does not seem to work for marlin 2.0 and im fairly certain somewhere in the marin/platformio documentation it said atom is no longer supported.

[@davidlockwood4545]

Since you have obviously superior understanding of this subject can you recommend an equally thorough and understandable walk thru of VSCode?

[@christopherborawski9202]

The only problem I am having with vscode is that it is taking over 3 minutes to compile, do you know what I could do to speed it up

[@ScottLahteine]

PlatformIO is no longer supporting Atom going forward so Visual Studio Code is the only option we will be supporting. With that in mind, I’d love to see a followup demonstrating the “Auto Build Marlin” extension for Visual Studio Code. It makes the build and upload process a single-click operation. Note that Marlin 1.1.9 does support PlatformIO as a build option. And there are some 32-bit platforms that can be built in Arduino IDE. Some 32-bit boards might still require Arduino IDE, but don’t quote me on that. (I haven’t memorized all the new details, clearly.) Annoying that PlatformIO is still getting confused by ZIP archive names. That was fixed a while ago, so it’s a regression. Try using VSCode and the very latest PlatformIO. You can tell if you have the right version because there will be a “.pio” folder instead of the “.piolibs” and “.piolibdeps” folders the older version used.

[@rickb1444]

There are a LOT of CR-10 and Ender 3 owners with BL-Touch installed. Would you create a video to show us how to switch an oem board on a CR-10 to Marlin 2.0 and add BL-Touch support? Otherwise, would you show everyone how to switch an oem board on an Ender 3 to Marlin 2.0 and add BL-Touch support? Thanks!

[@davey3765]

This would be awesome. I got the BLTouch official version and almost threw it in the trash. I have YET to get it working with the SKR Pro which has a dedicated pinout for it. It turns on and tests and starts to scan but the manufacturer never gave any calibration instructions or how its supposed to work once installed. So Im working in the dark wondering what to change in the firmware not knowing what to expect exactly for proper operation. Been 5 months with the BLTouch detached from the printer without a single successful calibration from it. I had it go around and do a 9 point calibration and then the printer just stops on the last calibration and idles. UGH waste of $60 so far. Went back to manually baby stepping at the start of a print which has been the most reliable so far. I have had a lot of issues releasing the Z axis so it can go into negative range because the printer at some points will freak out and ram the print head into the print bed and grind out until I hit the power switch. So inconsistent.

[@rentacheese4673]

I currently have my ender 3 pro with the silent board running on marlin 2 with a Bltouch installed, i followed his guide on how to install vanilla marlin which was version 1.1.9 but it was mostly the same for marlin 2.0, i think the main difference was when adding the pin 27 command you have to do it under the BLtouch menus in config.adv but other than that it was pretty smooth.

[@Joe_Not_A_Fed]

For fellow newbs (and/or boomers) if installing Visual Studio, it will prompt you to install Python (which does the same job as Clang). If you screw this up, it will cause much frustration, unless you know what you're doing...and if you did, you probably wouldn't be watching this video. I screwed up and solved the problem by uninstalling Python, and reinstalling doing it correctly. During the install, you'll be shown an install prompt with the options; 'Install Now' or 'Custom Installation'. THIS is where you MUST check the 'ADD PYTHON 3.8 TO PATH' option, or VS will not be able to find Python. (In the video, the Clang dialogue box is at 4:28). Later in the install process, it will ask if you want to allow LONG FILE PATHS (or something like that). I'm pretty sure you want to do this. I did and it seemed to work. You will have to restart VS for it to work.

[@jacquesadendorff1175]

i would like to see an standard 8-bit board with marlin 2.0.x. Keep the good work going

[@thisiskeithb]

Marlin's documentation needs to be updated since PlatformIO no longer supports Atom. Yes, you can make it work by downgrading libraries and swapping out files, but please use supported IDEs like VSCode/VSCodium instead 🙂

[@PedroMMFranco]

Where did you read that information? I can read on platformio documentation Atom references.

Two additional things I'd recommend: 1. Copy your firmware.cur to another location as a backup. If you just can't get things working, rename your .cur file to .bin and flash it back to the printer so you can get back to printing. 2. Put your Marlin folder in the root of your C:\ drive and possibly rename it to something shorter. Long file paths can prevent compiling. One question I do have: I'm currently on the latest bugfix for my SKR Mini E3 v1.2...is there any reason to update to Marlin 2.0 stable? Things seem to be working just fine for me right now; will I see any benefit from the upgrade?

[@AnakinSpain]

I have the same question. What is better stable or bugfix??

Hi Michael, would you consider a tutorial, on upgrading for example a CR-10 (or family) to Marlin 2 from the Marlin 1.x, is it worth the effort, etc. ? I'm sure others like me are thinking perhaps they should, but is it worth it?

It doesn’t work in atom, just in visual

[@einsteinx2]

You need to use Visual Studio Code (aka VS Code). It’s basically the same as Atom visually, but is fully supported, and everything shown in this video applies to VS Code as they work essentially identically. Keep in mind “Visual Studio” is a completely different application. You need “Visual Studio Code” specifically.

[@grogyan]

When I last checked, some time ago, Atom was deprecated for PlatformIO, thus the more up to date support is for VSCode of PlatformIO

Would you happen to have the config files for an Ender 5? I notice in the example folder is was not listed. Or can I simply copy from 1.1.9?

[@jsimmonstx]

@5::00 (where you copy the config files for ender 3) = The examples are no longer supplied in the marlin 2.0.x zip file. It is a separate ZIP download at github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/tree/2.0.x/config There are (at the time of this writing) two ender 3 pro folders. If you got your Ender 3 pro after/on/about mid-July 2020, you may need the 1.5 folder contents. The README file in the 1.5 folder will explain how to see which one you need.

[@Ron_Ventura]

Hi Michael. Love your videos. I’ve watched a lot of videos about burning firmware, and the need for a boot loader. I have an Ender 3 Pro, which I got just before Christmas. It’s got the 1.1.4 board and is running v 1.1.6 of Marlin (that’s from memory but I think I have it right). By following Bryan Vines’ video, I’ve determined that it has thermal runaway protection (yay). I was wondering if there is any easy, non destructive way to determine whether my printer has a boot loader or not. I don’t recall seeing that mentioned anywhere. Keep up the great work.

[@tinkerer5625]

It does not really matter if it has a boot loader or not. If your are thinking of upgrading your firmware, just start that and try to upload your new version to your printer. If it does not have the bootloader, you will find out. In that case you will need to install the bootloader. At any rate, it is just one more step you will need to do. Trying to upload a new version without a bootloader will do no harm to your printer. It just won't work but will not leave you in limbo.

[@jessicabelmontegandolfo119]

Hi Michael. I am a newbie with 3d printers and your videos are helping me a lot. Thank you! I have an ender 5 pro (already bootable) and just got a bltouch. I'm planning to update marlin to 2.0 before configuration the bltouch but I'm not updating my main board to 32bit (I think mine is the silent 1.1.6). Can I just do it with the arduino software as usual because I'm not using 32 bit?

[@gdnsantos]

Hi Michael, thanks for another useful guide! Let me ask you something I couldn't find, can we add another filament heat menu to Marlin, together with default PLA and ABS? I've tried here with no success, even adding to firmware didn't appear at printer's lcd menu. Thanks.

Followed your guides. So far with success. Couple of question remain though...how do I update to latest Marlin without losing all my config? Do I just keep config.h and .adv and replace all other files? And at what point should I switch from the bugfix branch to normal branch?

[@txreceivable]

thanks for the vid. perhaps off topic but are there any plans to simplify the configuration process in marlin? perhaps like the way duet3d do it with gcode or via some sort of configuration gui tool?

[@BobChaz]

I don't know what Marlin did in the couple months since your video (or what I did?) but the download looks nothing like what you have here. I'll update if I find the error on my part.

[@Bonjour-World]

The big advantage to the arduino IDE was that it worked across platforms. I keep looking for a reference for editing and compiling Marlin 2.X on linux. Editing is not really a big deal but the choice of compiler and IDE are. Atom DROPPED the IDE feature in 2018. Visual Studio is no longer available for Linux. Is there a recommended Linux environment for Marlin 2.x or is one required to purchase a seperate computer with that other operating system ???? It is not really "OPEN SOFTWARE" if one has to own/use a proprietary, commercial OS to compile it.

Hi Michael, Just one other thing. Is there any advantage to moving from 1.1.9 to 2.0 if I am running an 8 bit board? I may still play with this, but for now I have a Gen L with quiet drivers... So not sure I need 32 bit, or Marlin 2.0

[@kevincaska6691]

Hey Michael, love your tutorials! They have helped me a great deal. Was wondering if you could help me get marlin set up on my old printrbot, or at least point me in the right direction. It is still a great machine and I think it will keep supporting me for years to come, however I need to get a v6 nozzle on it and I can’t do that without updating the firmware. Sadly there is little support out there for it anymore and I am having trouble finding a definitive path for making the update. It needs a boot loader from what I understand, but sources cite at least 3 different versions. Is marlin 2.0 compatible with the printrboards? Or will I have to use an earlier version? Anyway, just wondering if you would be interested in my dilemma. Thanks!

Total noob here and I just got a Ender 3 Pro and did the setup. cant print yet due to a "Homing Failed" issue when i try to run my 1st test print as the printer head seems to be ghosting something to print but slowly sneaks off the bed to the right towards the display casing. Stepper motor keeps clicking for minute or so and then i get the error. I've followed guides to level the bed and its level and i auto-home places the Head all the way to the left to the stop switch where it supposed to be......is there supposed to be one of those switches on the far right of that axis as well? On top of that I started looking at the Marlin version that came with this printer and its v1.0.1 with a date of 2020-04-25. All these videos I see about updating the fw to 2.0 are talking about doing so from the old 1.9. How the heck do I have v1.0.1 with a 2020 date? That and can i directly update from 1.0.1 to the new v 2.0.7.2 That I see on Github? I think i need a 3d Printer coach LOL!

I've updated my Ender 3 Pro stock board to a SKR E3 Mini V1.2. Each time the printer boots the display reads Marlin bugfix-2.0.x. Is that the same as Marlin 2.0.0? Sorry if this is a stupid question!

[@moacustoms9434]

I've got a question...I just compiled and placed the firmware.bin on my SD Card. When I inserted the card into the printer and turned it on, it appears to have flashed correctly. When I pulled the SD Card and checked it to delete the firmware.bin file, I noticed that the firmware.cur file was nowhere to be found. I deleted the firmware.bin file, reinserted the card, and booted the printer. All was still well. I guess I won't stress over the firmware.cur not being on the card. This was all on the SKR mini E3 v1.2. Could this be a result of me not emulating EEPROM on the flash card? The pins file under stm32 doesn't have any EEPROM coding in it on my build.

None of my 3 printers have example config files. Can you make a tutorial on how to setup Marlin from scratch?

Hey, a quick question? if the firmware is being flashed on the SD Card, can the same card still be used for printing as the LCD has no SD Card slot. Or will i have to get a new lcd to use for SD Card printing?

[@aarondavalon8985]

Thank you for your helpful videos which got me into 3d printing but I am struggling with setting up Marlin 2.0 for myself after being advised to learn how to do it. Just adding marlin files I get errors and failed messages on every attempt so far. I have given up with atom and now trying to use vscode but to no avail. The messages have no meaning to me because I am not even able to select a board in tools which does not even appear the my menu tabs. Tearing my hair out trying to understand what I am doing wrong. Hopefully someone can help

I literally just got comfortable with editing and flashing 1.9. Unless there is some great new feature I'm sticking with 1.9.

i just got an SKR mini 1.2 board. Am i supposed to use the ender 3 config files or the bigtreetech 1.2 files?

I really wish there was some instruction on this new crap mentioned in the comments seeing as this video is useless unless you read the 3 month old comments. I AM STUCK. THANKS.

After the upgrade with the USB cable I get an error on the LCD panel on Ender 3 of the heating failed: bed, Printer halted, please restart, please help me restore my printer, would appreciate your help as I follow the tutorial but am not an IT background at all. Thanks

[@NMHC1978]

can i use this method for uploading the firmware to a 8bit AVR board with the mega2560 ?

[@peterlaw6895]

Can you make a video how to install marlin firmware on Tronxy xy2 pro please

[@davidhancock7307]

Were do I get the firmware.cur? I deleted it before I flashed my printer. Now my printer doesn't work.

[@sotm6078]

? Why would someone want to switch their Ender 3 to a different motherboard and firmware if it is printing just fine as stock? What would be a compelling reason?

[@m3chanist]

I'm looking at the online documentation for marlin and I see nothing that is Atom specific. In fact, I don't see any mention let alone dependency on atom at all, not even a screenshot. Unless the entire doc set has been edited within the last two days it's unclear as to how one could arrive at the conclusion that it's the editor used in all of the documentation. Bit of a head scratcher.

Plz make e guide for ender 3 with the skr mini e3 , bltouch , smart filament detector and the power relay ( and I watch some videos with that board having mode memory )

[@faxxzc]

RezKom what do you mean by smart filament detector?

[@emmanuelauffray8292]

Pretty sure Michael did already that video except for the power relay and it is even a link in the video

[@GiorgosKomitis]

@@faxxzc the bigtreetech sfs can detect if the filament move or not and if it's run out

[@alberto.vega.v88]

can you help me? when i download the marlin 2.0 file, i can´t see the carpet "examples", i thik it´s no more available

[@MrWeaponlord]

Would i be able to use my old config files from marlin 1.1.x? They don't have example Tevo Black Widow files

[@HSelimSerdar]

Error: Could not find the package with 'framework-arduino-lpc176x @ 0.1.3' requirements for your system 'windows_amd64' ??????????????????????????????????

[@vegansynths7757]

I've tried this on both ATOM and on Visual Studio Code and I have a Mac. Everytime I compile the project it doesn't add the files to the home folder. Nothing gets added. It shows up in my Atom Project folder, but is nowhere to be found on my actual computer. So I have no way of transporting somethign that isn't there. Furthermore, the mac wont accept the SD card. It only gives me the option to initialize it.

[@timd9430]

Need new updated videos for the Ender 3 V2 and Marlin 2.x

[@Zugaaa]

there are multiple configurations for the ender3 and i dont know which one to use
