Marlin for ET4

The Marlin for ET4 project is an effort to try to adapt the Anet ET4 motherboard and display for use with Marlin. Anyone can contribute to completing this project. Feedback is also welcome.

Build / Installation

DISCLAIMER: Not for production use. This is an unfinished project under development. I (@davidtgbe) am not responsible for what may happen to the motherboard or printer. Use at your own risk.

A flasher (stlink, jlink, bmp etc) is required to flash Marlin onto the board because it has a closed custom bootloader.

Before flashing (recommended):

Make a backup of the firmware on the board first. At least back up the bootloader (0x08000000 - 0x08010000). That will allow you to recover the full stock firmware by:

  1. flashing the backed-up bootloader to the same address range (0x08000000 - 0x8010000), and
  2. flashing any of the available Anet binary firmwares (i.e., et4.bin) at address 0x08010000.

If you don't perform this step and end up "bricking" your board, you can get the stock ET4 firmware and bootloader linked in the Resources section below.

Flashing the firmware:

There are several tutorials available for stlink/j-link flashers.

There's no need to keep the stock bootloader on the board, so you can flash Marlin starting at address 0x8000000.

  1. Download the latest Marlin firmware. (Version 2.0.6.2 or newer.)
  2. Use the appropriate configuration files for your ET4 model (ET4, ET4 Pro, ET4+, ...). The affected settings include:
    • Driver model (A4988 vs. TMC2208)
    • Z endstop position (MIN vs. MAX)
    • Bed size
    • Bed leveling sensor
  3. For best results download the free "Visual Studio Code" and use the "Auto Build Marlin" extension with "PlatformIO IDE".
  4. Use your flasher to burn the firmware (.elf or .bin file) starting from address 0x08000000.

Connect your favorite serial host to the printer's serial port at 115200 baud to test it out!

Resources

Marlin for Anet ET Project status

Working:

  • XYZ Steppers
  • Extruder
  • SD Card
  • USB comunication / pronterface
  • TFT
  • Filament runout detector.
  • EEPROM
  • Powerloss. See issues tab.

In-progress

  • PC/SD firmware load/update: There is no bootloader currently. Best option would be use stock ET4 bootloader.

Needs a look

  • All files at "Marlin/buildroot/share/PlatformIO/variants/ET4" should be adapted to ET4 Board. Especially peripheralPins.c, variant.cpp, variant.h, etc.

Reporting bugs

Report bugs to the Issues section of my Marlin fork. Please be detailed regarding use-cases and other useful information like hardware and software context. For help with creating issues see this.
