What's New

  • There are major changes in the release. We now support boards using the STM32H7 processor and with that comes an updated build system.

NOTE 1: From V3.3beta1 onwards the STM32 version of RRF will not boot on hardware that is not recognised. If after installing this version your board does not appear to start please connect a USB terminal and check for error messages. If your board is not recognised please contact TeamGloomy so that we may add the board data.

NOTE 2: Due to memory limitations this version of RepRapFirmware is not supported on LPC based boards. Please use V3.3.0 on these devices,

All Users

This release of the firmware removes the use of legacy entries in the board.txt file. The following tags are no longer used:

  • lpc.board= use board= instead
  • softwareSPI.pins= use one of SPI3.pins=, SPI4.pins=, SPI5.pins= instead
  • sbc.lpcTfrReadyPin= use sbc.TfrReadyPin= instead
  • adc.prefilter.enable= is no longer needed

WiFi Users

As well as updating the firmware, you need to update the following:

SBC Users

As of this release upgrading the SBC version of the firmware requires the use of an additional RAM based program (stm32f4_iap_SBC.bin for the STM32F4 version). The easy way to ensure that this is correctly installed is to upload the .zip file version of the SBC firmware to the system folder using DWC. This contains the required firmware components. If this additional component is not installed you will not be able to easily update to future versions of the SBC firmware.

There is currently no support for SBC mode when running on STM32H7 based boards. It is intended to provide this support in a later release.

Please follow the instructions from here
