Marlin 3D Printer Firmware
==========================

Notes:
-----

The configuration is now split in two files:
Configuration.h for the normal settings
Configuration_adv.h for the advanced settings

Gen7T is not supported.

An interrupt is used to manage ADC conversions, and enforce checking for critical temperatures.
This leads to less blocking in the heater management routine.

* M204 - Set default acceleration: S normal moves T filament only moves (M204 S3000 T7000) im mm/sec^2 also sets minimum segment time in ms (B20000) to prevent buffer underruns and M20 minimum feedrate
* M206 - set home offsets. This sets the X,Y,Z coordinates of the endstops (and is added to the {X,Y,Z}_HOME_POS configuration options (and is also added to the coordinates, if any, provided to G82, as with earlier firmware)
* M220 - set build speed mulitplying S:factor in percent ; aka "realtime tuneing in the gcode". So you can slow down if you have islands in one height-range, and speed up otherwise.

* M400 - Finish all buffered moves.

Temperature variables:
* M301 - Set PID parameters P I and D

* M205 - advanced settings: minimum travel speed S=while printing T=travel only, B=minimum segment time X= maximum xy jerk, Z=maximum Z jerk

EEPROM:

* M500 - stores paramters in EEPROM. This parameters are stored: axis_steps_per_unit, max_feedrate, max_acceleration ,acceleration,retract_acceleration,
minimumfeedrate,mintravelfeedrate,minsegmenttime, jerk velocities, PID
* M501 - reads parameters from EEPROM (if you need reset them after you changed them temporarily).
* M502 - reverts to the default "factory settings". You still need to store them in EEPROM afterwards if you want to.
* M503 - print the current settings (from memory not from eeprom)

MISC:

* M240 - Trigger a camera to take a photograph
* M999 - Restart after being stopped by error
