M2 calibration missing setting to set sled size

I can’t seem to find the settings to edit the sled size in makerverse.

This must matter when doing Edge calibration.

My m2 sled is custom, I do not have the blue m2 sled.

Mine is 25mm radius.

Is it the version with the DUE board or Arduino? If it’s the Arduino, go with webcontrol, it’s easier to use imo. If you want to stick (or have to with the DUE board) with makerverse you may have to contact makermade since they made that version and that software.

In Makerverse, the Firmware window should indicate whether you have Arduino or DUE.
Just below that is the Calibrate button. Click Calibrate, click Let’s Begin!, and then select the tab that says Sled. You can select Other, and specify the size of your sled. You may enter your values to each edge (from the bit) there. For reference, I have the standard ‘blue’ sled, and each measurement with the router perfectly centered is 229.5mm from bit to edge.

Cheers.

I do have the Due board, just a custom sled & z assembly

Maybe I’m on an old version of maker verse, I do not have a sled tab

When I open Makerverse and connect to the machine, the console identifies my version as Makerverse 1.1.3.

Just under the console window is Maslow, click the Info (i) button, and under Controller Settings, I am showing GRBL version 1.1g, and MaslowDue version 20200915.

I’m sure I have a copy of the install program, but I’m not sure I can upload an executable file here.

Do a search for Makerverse 1.1.3 download, and if it doesn’t work, let me know and I will see what I can do.

So I am actually on MakerHub v 1.3.1 Beta ( newest available from the maker-made site ).

GRBL 1.1g

1.1.3 will not run on my computer. it crashes

I’m going to try 1.1.4

None of the makerverse versions run on my mac.

I can’t offer you much on the Mac side of things. I stopped working on Mac stuff some twenty years ago.

You can try to reach out to TJ Weber @sourcery or info@makermade.com and see if they can help you more.

I know there can be a lot of division between Mac and PC, but I would seriously suggest picking up a used laptop running Windows, and I think you would be in a better position for getting help.

What is the trick to opening 1.1.3, I keep getting a network error in every version of Makerverse I try to run, on both Mac or PC.

I’m getting nowhere with Tech Support, the guy answering emails is clueless as to what I’m talking about.

I’m sorry that I can’t help more, I’ve never actually used Makerverse :confused: . Just to make it clear MakerMade who makes that software is a different company that puts our logo on their products without permission, we are not connected to them in any way

what do you use ?

The entire M2 machine as well as the software related to it was created by
Makermade. Bar has never used it or had anything directly to do with it’s
design. Makermade attempted to improve the Maslow design that Bar created, and
may have done so. But instead of working with the community and making their
machine work with the same software everyone else used, they attempted to
create their own community (as well as their own software), but then started
pointing people here for answers. We attempt to help users, but are limited
in what we can do.

Since you have a M2 with a DUE board, you have no choice but to use makerverse.

Someone on the forums can surely help. I can’t provide much because I have a classic that I use webcontrol to run.

Do you mean makerhub ? I’ve been told NOT to use makerverse lol

Ugh. I’m starting to feel less shy about my distain.

According to their website makerhub replaced makerverse.

Yes, of that I am aware.
That’s why I wanted clarification
