Sprinter won't compile if acceleration is commented out (Solved)

I want to try running Sprinter with the acceleration turned off. If I comment out the line #define RAMP_ACCELERATION, I get compilation errors. Has anyone successfully done this?

Just set the acceleration to 10000000 and it will act as if it has no acceleration.

And if its like Teacup you could also try setting it to Zero. (disables acceleration in teacup)

Yes. But win't it still go through the computations to figure out the acceleration. This adds additional work for the processor.

Since Sprinter is just Tonokip with Acceleration why don't you try tonokip?

Yes. I might just do that. Using Sprinter is, of course, more convenient since I can keep everything the same except for the acceleration. So, I'll try your other suggestion first of increasing the acceleration factor.

That's news to me and works by accident at best. To get rid of acceleration in Teacup, comment out both acceleration types.

I got Sprinter to compile with acceleration turned off. In addition to commenting out #define RAMP_ACCELERATION in configration.h, I also inserted #ifdef statement in the #define for heat management during accelaration in the same file:

Quote

// Comment the following line to enable heat management during acceleration
#ifdef RAMP_ACCELERATION //brnrd 20111003
#define DISABLE_CHECK_DURING_ACC
#ifndef DISABLE_CHECK_DURING_ACC
#endif //brnrd 20111003
