Just bought an XYZ Davinci 2.0a With Repetier - HELP please lol

DPhoenixUK

Hi, I'm pretty computer savvy and have programmed Arduino's before, so not a complete noob.... but...

I recently bought a Davinci 2.0a which has already been flashed with 0.92.10M

The second extruder isn't registering and when it does a print, it's REALLY fast but the resulting model just falls apart when you take it off the bed, so I'm guessing the configuration was a bit off. As well as the bed size is wrong lol.

I'm struggling to find the correct settings and trying the online configurator, I have no idea what I need to be selecting for Processor (i think it's mega) Motherboard (literally no idea lol) Printer type, or EEprom usage.

Most other things I can probably figure out with trial and error, but if anyone can help me with the basics, or even has a working config I can use, then that would be awesome.

Any help is much appreciated!

Dave.

Please note that the original repetier-firmware does not support DaVinci. What you have is most likely an installations of luc fork who made special adjustments for it. With that it should be easy to figure our correct settings as they are already set for the printer. Check his github for more informations.

Normally you can change settings like steps per mm in eeprom without any need to recompile firmware. Just call the eeprom editor in Repetier-Server or Repetier-Host.

Ah ok. Thank you. I need to enable the second extruder really and as far as I can see it’s not a setting in the EEPROM editor, but I’ll have another look. I’ll check the Luc fork too.

Thank you for your help.

You see it easily if you all extruder settings twice it should already have dual extruder support, otherwise you need to recompile.

Good day.
I am new using the version of repeater adapted to Da Vinci printers. I installed it in a first generation duo with second generation extruders.

But you have presented the problem when start to print the left extruder temperature sensor stops working and signals a fatal error. It does that even if I give it the instruction to auto level the bed or try to do it manually.

Do you know what the problem could be or how I can solve the problem?
It is worth mentioning that if I load filament in either of the two extruders it does it very well, loading and unloading.

All the best

What temperatures does it report and what is the exact error message? Might be just a temperature drop e.g. when fans get on that put you outside allowed ranges. Or a real error that only happens at some positions if cable is stretched more at a broken position. WIthout info from log with temperature responses impossible to say.
