MakerGear Forum

Hi all,

I was trying to retrieve the acceleration values from my Makergear M2. The makergear.wikidot.com page states:

"M204" will read the current value.

When I send "M204" (without the quotes) with the Simplify3D Send button at the bottom of the Communication tab of the Machine Control Panel, all I get is "OK". I don't get the acceleration values. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Have a great day,
Jim

M204 is used to set the value, not retrieve it as far as I know.

to see the value, open the Comm panel, turn off verbose mode, and press connect. The default printer settings will scroll up and you will see the M204 values.

Try M503

Perfect. Thank you guys. I just wanted to see what was in the EEPROM before I made the changes to the accelerations. The M503 command gave me what I needed, and unchecking verbose gave me time to read it.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Have a great day,
Jim
