Bluetooth Wireless Editable Gcode Sender (Remote control for your 3D Printer)

Update 6/3/2017: Updated the Arduino Sketch file to correct the feedrates of the axis movements. Now the feedrates of Z, Y, Z, E are set independently, especially the Extruder feedrate.


This project is very much like using Pronterface or Repetier Host manual control to send gcode instructions to your printer while connected to the computer via USB cable, but instead using a programmable wireless bluetooth remote instead of a computer.

Note: Older wired version can be found here. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2105847

Remote is built up with an Arduino Nano connected to two small 16 button keypads (32 keys total) as well as a serial bluetooth adapter/interface. Each button can send a single line of gcode or a script of multiple lines.

ZIp file included containing the Arduino sketch, wiring diagrams, and setup guides for the components of the system.

Gcode sender is intended to work for 3D printers as well as a CNC mills and laser engravers. Any machine th
