Improving all Makelangelo documentation today

[Anonymous]

Working on integrating all your suggestions into the wiki today.

Made major improvements to the instructions for the M2, M3, and M2.5. Next I’ll tackle Arm3 stuff.

What do you think of the new format?

I can not find anything about LCD and SD card on Makelangelo docs.
How is it supposed to work, anyways? No PC needed to start a program?

Oh! You are so right. Wow, how did I miss that.

The quick answer is:
====
in makelangelo software, make sure machine settings WHEN DISCONNECTED are correct for your machine.

convert image.

use gcode > save gcode to the SD card.

On the robot, click the button, scroll down to the last option (start from file?) click again, then choose your file and click one more time.

You can pause/unpause. You may find that drawings are faster and more smooth from SD card because it doesn’t have to transmit data.

I’m still looking for a way in the software for people to say “use the settings for machine X even tho I’m not connected.”
