Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override

this check.

avrdude done. Thank you.

• Board ausbauen
• Wird an USB nicht erkannt
• 9V externe Spannung anlegen

Bootloader brennen geht immer noch nicht aber neue Fehlermeldung.


Reset kurz beim Bootloader brennen:
Geht!
Bootloader wurde gebrannt!

Kein Extra Kondensator zwischen GND und Vcc war nötig.



Nun zur Firmware

Unbrick Anet A8 Mainboard (via USBISP)

Skynet AVRDUDE Programm:

ANET A8 Board - fix dead stepper with external stepper driver
http://lokspace.eu/how-to-fix-failed-stepper-driver-on-the-anet-v1-0-board-and-use-external-reprap-stepper-driver/

There are only 3 signals that drive each driver – X_DIR – sets the direction in which the stepper rotates, X_STEP – sending a pulse here makes the motor execute a “step”, and ENABLE – enables/disables the stepper.
Apart from these, I also needed power – VCC (5V – power for the logic), VMOT (12V – power for the motor) and GND.

I was able to trace the first 3 to the following points on the mainboard:

• X_DIR – test point T13 (pin 24 on the atmega1284p)
• X_STEP – test point T13 (pin16)
• ENABLE – test point T19 (pin15)

Getting the rest was easy – I got the 5V from the output pin of the 5V regulator, and 12V from the input pin. And GND is shown on the picture below.
The ENABLE signal wire can be soldered on alternative location – on one of the pins of R8 (shown on the picture below). It’s better there, because the test points are too small and you can ruin them easily. Unfortunately X_DIR and X_STEP use direct connection between the atmega and the driver so there are no alternative points where you can solder the wires.

Result:
After several trials, the board seems to be bricked. In addition to the problem with the very small memory, I decided to turn away from using the original Melzi board and look for a board with enough memory to install a full Marlin.
