Put the firmware into the SD card, insert it into the machine, and then restart it and it will update automatically.
https://github.com/MakerPi-3D/Marlin/tree/soongon_4_2.0.x  This is the open source code for M1.

Hello there,  Maybe you can help me.  I'm not sure why, but my MakerPI M1 is having trouble homing correctly....  

When I first got it, it worked fine.  But I went to use it this week, and it's having trouble homing correctly.   Initially, it was the X axis (the bed) that was having trouble.  It would home correctly against the limit switch, then it would over-extend itself in the opposite direction.

After installing new firmware from here (https://drive.google.com/u/1/uc? ... amp;export=download) the Y axis seems to have trouble homing correctly now as well. It moves in the wrong direction !  instead of moving down to meet the table, it moves upward off it's limits as well!  

Any idea what could be wrong?

Still trying to figure this out.  There is no way of "configuring" the limits of the printer in the Cura software (19.08.15) to adjust the Y travel direction and limits.  I tried to build the firmware from the github here (https://github.com/MakerPi3D/Marlin/tree/soongon_4_2.0.x) but I'm not having any luck and don't want to break it worse.

Any ideas on why the firmware has my Y  axis inverted?

Nevermind.  Out of frustration... I physically rewired the stepper motor and it seems to work now.
