I also installed a fan. No more CPU throttle warnings and crashes anymore.

Besides that I still have a red and a green laser, I had some advancement in the scan results. I have my 3D printer kit up and running for a while and found some interesting FabScan Pi improvements on...

Dear Mario, Thanks for the response. I have to buy another green one I guess. Means another 30 days waiting for delivery from China. Regards, Hamishi

Hi, I recently installed a second laser. It is assumed to be an adjustable green line laser. I have no idea on how to adjust this thing. If I turn the front part it just seems to come out of the casin...

I changed it to 11, rebooted and calibrated again. The results improved a lot but still it looks that some parts of the surface are placed in the point cloud with a vertical and angular offset. That l...

actually it is 10.555 mm for 9 squares I measure 9.5 cm

@mario, I still cannot get decent results unfortunately. Could you have another look at the calibration results? I'm suspecting that the calibration process does not work correct with only 1 laser in ...

@danilo0702 30.2 is the distance I measured from the table surface to the top of the first black square on the bottom row. This is the value according to the instructions for the filling in the values...

@Mario Attachment : Capture8.JPG Attachment : default.config1.txt As promised yesterday. The scan results have improved but are still not perfect. What did I do: 1. Realign the camera...

@mario From that picture the table seems not to be exactly in the middle. I tried to align the centre of the table with the vertical green line as in the documentation. I will repeat everything again...

Attachment : Capture7.JPG My camera alignment.

I use a PiCAM V2 (green circuit board) and did not change any resolution.

The black background is a piece of an anti-slip foil used in car boots to avoid things slipping around in the boot. I just placed it behind the table to see if this would improve the scan results. The...

The requested screenshots. The rotation axis problem for a new scan seems to emerge after loading a saved scan as I did to produce this screenshots.

Hi Mario, The picture of the fabscanpi HAT should be placed in the topic about the configuration for a 400 step motor and the TMC2208 driver as this picture shows the bridges to be shorted in order to...

Hi, I'm running V0.8.2 and I have problems with scanning objects that have surfaces that are beyond the centre of the table in whdat I would call a negative position. I first recognized the problem wi...

When you look at the picture you can see that I had to skew the camera quite a lot. The nuts on the other side don't have any space between them. I came up with this arrangement after I tried to push ...

This picture shows the pads C1 and C2 connected to 5V.

My calibration sheet fabricated from PCB. The camera adjustment by means of M3x16 bolts and nuts. My camera was way off. The support for the sides to fix the gap between the lid and the sides made fro...

Thanks to all of you, I think this was a good exercise. I also did some modification to the camera mounting as it was not aligned with the table and I put a 3 mm thread rod between the sides of the c...

Yes, I just tested it. Under the driver there are three of these jumper pads, label C3, C2, and C1. First I verified which of them are connected to MS1 and MS2. It are C1 and C2. I soldered the midpad...

So on the FabScanPi Hat J7 2 and 3 should be closed and J8 2 and 3 should be closed for a 2208 to pull them to 5V.

@Mario, Can you confirm, that these pins are not driven by the software. From your replay above it seems to me that for the 21xx the default values result in the 1/16 configuration. And that for the 2...

From the comparison between the 2100 and the 2208 I observe that when the 2100 setting for 1/16 is applied to a 2208 it would probably result in 1/8. 2100 open at cfg1 and cfg2 gives 1/16 <-> 22...

Just looked at the minicom post. The GO[T(400)] command would turn a 400 step motor 360 degrees and a 200 step motor 720 degrees. I'm not sure if I wrote the command correctly. This would be a fast...

I took a look at that post right now. According to the schematic, I think that with MS1 and MS2 at VCC the motor makes 16 steps, not 1/16. So it is, I think normal, that he measured a lower voltage w...

I just built the kit this week and used according to the documentation the setting 6400 for the 400 step motor. The documentation of the motor claims that it is a 400 step motor. And that is also wha...
