Note
Many Updates have been included in the most recent MRiscoCProUI for the 2024-May release. This release has many changes to the UI. New ICON's have been added, and old ones enhanced. Whoever edited them before saved directly as .JPG which in many editors lowers the quality of the image. I painstakingly remastered almost every single one; preserving the original quality.
You must REFLASH the LCD Display with the new DWIN_SET; which is located in the
display assetsfolder.
Warning
FOREWARNING: So far everything has been working great - as normal - except there are reports of it restarting after saving with no other negative effects. So far, that is the only issue. I just wanted to give advance notice.
Tip
H32->HC32 support is currently only in the branch HC32-<Month>. You can find the original repo here @shadow578/Marlin-H32
HC32 support has recently been added to the Marlin Firmware repository. Please post any Issues there first, otherwise if there are any ProUI specific issues or anything else to report please do so under Issues tab here.
Note
Previous Issue of it restarting when saving/store settings has been fixed in the more recent ProUI version (October Rev.1).
HOWEVER, now there is a current Issue to be addressed:
The screen may freeze and restart when the SD card is inserted. This means that everything so far seems to work correctly as it should, except for when an SD card is inserted, so printing may not be possible unless you use USB serial interface to upload the file (through a slicer or something like Pronterface).
If this is an inconvenience then you can use an earlier version which can allow the SD Card to be used.
General information about the firmware and updates is located in the Wiki page What's New In This Release.
Other changes and updates are addressed here and are addressed here.
/**
* The nozzle is only able to move within the physical bounds of the machine.
* If the PROBE has an OFFSET Marlin may need to apply additional limits so
* the probe can be prevented from going to unreachable points.
*
* e.g., If the PROBE is to the LEFT of the NOZZLE, it will be limited in how
* close it can get the RIGHT edge of the bed (unless the nozzle is able move
* far enough past the right edge).
*/
If you start printing and it says Advance Pause while Runout is enabled, you may have to change state it triggers no filament to HIGH, or LOW (depending on what is already selected). This is found in the Prepare menu/ Filament Management/ Filament Settings -> Runout Active.
A small issue which may occur is if you are in the Print menu and you quickly select to print between several printable Gcode files in a short amount of time. The screen can freeze for a moment and the printer will restart - that is it.
If you encounter any issues, suggestions, or feature requests please feel free to post it on the Issues tab, otherwise if everything is going well please leave a comment.
I will be working on more upgrades and features and tweaks along the way. Enjoy using this fork of Marlin as I intend it to be the best; easy to use and convenient. So far I really enjoy the new settings and toolbar for the main menu. There is a variety of parameters and options that can be changed without having to reflash the firmware - like with other versions.
There is a MarlinSimulator.exe file provided to test out for yourself. It simulates a pre-built configuration of this firmware.
To create your own MarlinSimulator with you own build, start by changing in Configuration.h MOTHERBOARD to BOARD_SIMULATED, also disable ENDSTOP_INTERRUPTS_FEATURE and PROUI_EX, and then in platformio.ini default_envs = change to simulator_windows. The MarlinSimulator can only compile for Manual Mesh Bed Leveling for now, so make sure your configuration is set for MESH_BED_LEVELING.
Then you have to extract SDL2-devel-2.28.4-mingw.zip from /docs. To install SDL, navigate to the SDL2 directory in MSYS2 MINGW64 terminal (Run as Administrator)ls and type:
make cross
If you receive an error, then try the following:
make install-package arch=x86_64-w64-mingw32 prefix=/usr
You can use instead a 32-bit version by passing:
make native
32-bit files are in \i686-w64-mingw32 if you use make native. Then copy the contents of ~\SDL2-2.28.4\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include\SDL2\* into ~.pio\libdeps\simulator_windows\imgui
-OR-
Copy the just folder ~\SDL2-2.28.4\x86_64-w64-mingw32\include\SDL2 into the directory ~\libdeps\simulator_windows
You may have to first Build so the directory can be created.
Once all that is done, just build like you would normally and MarlinSimulator.exe will be created.
For MacOS or Linux, you're on your own...sorry.
The Precompiled binary files of this firmware can work with STM32 (STM32F103RET6/RCT6 - STMicroelectronics) and it's clones: G32 (GD32F103Rx - GigaDevice), N32 (N32F103Rx / N32G455x - Nation), and H32 (HC32F460x - Huada Semiconductor/HDSC). They can be downloaded from: Latest Release

I would greatly appreate supporters, helpers and betatesters whenever possible.
Please consider making a donation or show your support or input if you end up using this firmware.
It wasn't easy getting it to this point. I am just a basic programmer and the work is mostly trial and error. Thank goodness for VS Code's compiler which shows me what changes need to be made as I make them.
