Various features that can usually be turned on or off like the power loss recovery, filament
runout sensor and other options. Many of these features are available during a print as well.
Notes:
▪

Menu > Settings > Machine > Parameters
Features and variables that are set in the marlin firmware such as TMC bump sensitivity
(sensorless homing), steps per mm and driver current. Typically these settings do not need to be
modified.

Menu > Settings > Machine > EEPROM
The EEPROM is where settings are stored to memory such as machine parameters, settings and
features.
•
Save: Save the current changes to memory
•
Restore: Restore the settings to the defaults when you last turned on the printer (if other
changes were made and not saved to memory)
•
Reset: Reset the printer to the factory default settings. You will need to re bed-level, adjust the
baby stepping and change anything else that was modified since the last firmware update.

Heating, Cooling and Extruding

Menu > Heat
Used to preheat the extruder/hotbed, modify temperatures or shut off heating.
Menu > Fan
Used to turn on/off the extruder fan or set it to a particular percentage.
Menu > Extrude
Runout sensor: Set to on or off. Smart is not utilized.
Power loss recovery: recovers current layer in touchscreen mode. Recovers
exact position in classic Marlin mode.
Auto power: Not used.
TMC bump sensitivity: Threshold for sensorless homing of the X and Y axis. If it
is too low could lead to false triggers. 10 recommended
Driver Current (mA): The TMC2130 stepper drivers can have the current
adjusted via the firmware. If the drivers overheat the printer will dynamically
lower the current to cool them down. The default value should be 1000
