MKS SBASE 1.3 profile config

[mthompson239]

So I picked up a PowerSpec Ultra that the electronics have also been replaced with a MKS SBase V1.3 32 Bit board compatible of 1/32 micro stepping and a touch screen LCD, Titan, and E3D V6 hotEnd. Trying to load up a profile and cant apparently a Printer...so I did other. Select Reprap for firmware and heated bed. Brought in a small test square 2" x 2" x .2". Load up the SD card with sliced file...and does nothing at all....looks like its "going" thru the motions of printing.....WITHOUT the pre-heat process of extruder or hot bed...but extruder is not moving. Load back one of my other profiles used on my FlashForge/PowerSpec/MicroCenter printer and give it a go......this time the extruder starts to move into an incorrect position and lands near an offbed area and start to actually look like it printing. Baring the fact that the extruder is not heated...nothing apparently comes out. So manual preheat bed/extruder and try again...same off bed area printing but does infact start to extrude since the extruder has been preheated.

Looks like I am missing alot of configurations with using the "Other" during the Configuration Assistant...as looking at the gcode for the new "Other" printer and my other the start up script is only 1 line: G28 ; home all axes vs my other working profiles (on other printers):

; **** Replicator 1 dual start.gcode ****
M73 P0 ; enable build progress
G162 X Y F3000 ; home XY maximum
G161 Z F1200 ; home Z minimum
G92 Z-5 ; set Z to -5
G1 Z0 ; move Z to 0
G161 Z F100 ; home Z slowly
M132 X Y Z A B ; recall home offsets
M135 T0 ; load right extruder offsets
G1 X150 Y-70 Z30 F9000 ; move to wait position right hand side of the table
G130 X20 Y20 Z20 A20 B20 ; lower stepper Vrefs while heating
M126 S[fan_speed_pwm]
M140 S[bed0_temperature] T0
M134 T0 ; stabilize bed temperature
M104 S[extruder0_temperature] T0
M104 S[extruder1_temperature] T1
M133 T0 ; stabilize right extruder temperature
M133 T1 ; stabilize left extruder temperature
G130 X127 Y127 Z40 A127 B127 ; default stepper Vrefs
G92 A0 B0 ; zero extruders
G1 Z0.4 ; position nozzle
G1 X110 Y-70 E25 F300 ; purge nozzle
M135 T1; left tool
G1 X120 Y-70 E25 F300; purge nozzle
M135 T0; right tool
G1 X120 Y-70 Z0.15 F1200 ; slow wipe
G1 X110 Y-70 Z0.5 F1200 ; lift
G92 A0 B0 ; zero extruders
M73 P1 ;@body (notify GPX body has started)
; **** end of start.gcode ****

What am I missing here? Never have had an issues going from open box to printing with my FF/MicroCenter/PowerSpec printers but apparently this MKS SBASE requires a bit more configuration. Any help would be TRULY greatful!!!

Any suggestions would be great

MKS SBASE 1.3 running what? Marlin? Repetier? At startup, both of these firmwares will (unless suppressed), produce a splash screen which should let you know what's running on the board. If either Marlin or Repetier, S3D supports them just fine. I have a cheap, Chinese Prusa clone (all aluminum), running this board and Marlin. I just chose one of the 'Prusa' printers in S3D configuration, then modified the build dimensions to match my particular clone. I've literally made no changes to the scripts at all, and it prints just fine, properly waiting for heat cycles, priming, etc. Yes, there are some things I need to 'tweak', but S3D worked pretty much 'out-of-the-box', after configuring for proper firmware.

Unless someone loaded vastly modified firmware on the board (in which case you could still load a 'standard' Marlin or Repetier setup onto it), one of the S3D profiles should at least get you a start.
