temperature sensors

Even the configuartion of the temperature sensors must be adjusted in 

accordance with the used sensors.

Note the configuration notes in the following section of the 

Configuration.h 

file:

#define TEMP_SENSOR_0 1

#define TEMP_SENSOR_1 0

#define TEMP_SENSOR_2 0

#define TEMP_SENSOR_3 0

#define TEMP_SENSOR_4 0

#define TEMP_SENSOR_BED 0

Even the maximal permitted temperatures can  deviate in accordance to 

the used components. Because of that, you should match the maximal 

temperatures with your components in the following section:

// If temperature exceeds max temp, your heater will be switched off.

// This feature exists to protect your hotend from overheating 

   accidentally, but *NOT* from thermistor short/failure!

// You should us MINTEMP for thermistor short/failure protection.

#define HEATER_0_MAXTEMP 275

#define HEATER_1_MAXTEMP 275

#define HEATER_2_MAXTEMP 275

#define HEATER_3_MAXTEMP 275

#define HEATER_4_MAXTEMP 275

#define BED_MAXTEMP 150

direction of rotation of the stepper motors

In accordance with the wiring or rather polarity of the used stepper motors, it 

can be necessary to invert the direction of rotation of individual motors.

This is possible in the following section:

// Invert the stepper direction. Change (or reverse the motor connector)if     

   an axis goes the wrong way.

#define INVERT_X_DIR false

#define INVERT_Y_DIR true

#define INVERT_Z_DIR false

// Enable this option for Toshiba stepper drivers

//#define CONFIG_STEPPERS_TOSHIBA

// @section extruder

//For direct drive extruder v9 set to true, for geares extruder set to false.

#define INVERT_E0_DIR false

#define INVERT_E1_DIR false

#define INVERT_E2_DIR false

#define INVERT_E3_DIR false

#define INVERT_E4_DIR false
