Automated Printing Issue

DimaL

Hi all,

I'm new to the product/forum but it seems like the best place to look for help.

I recently bought a "DOBOT Magician" which has a function of 3d printing and the manual suggest using Repetier Host.

After following all of the instruction in the manual, I am able to move the robot manually and even control the flow of the material, unfortunately when I go about printing a 3d model the g-code is send to the robot, and Repetier shows the movement but the robot itself is idle

I would appreciate and suggestion that might help me fix the issue help me create my first hand made model.

I don't know that printer but if you can use manual control it is at least correctly setip in repetier-host.

In such cases you should at first take a look at the log if it contains any hints, e.g. heating failed and it starts to ignore all following commands would be a typical reason.

I went through the log, It shows no errors, as I mentioned before the commands are being sent line by line without any errors, but the robot itself is idle during those commands

Repetier

If dobot returns ok it has received the line and the error is either a wrong command send or firmware not doing what you expect as some conditions are not met, e.g. If it is configured to only m ove after homing and no homing done.
