  • Yes that is the message.  I run multiple printers and often start prints from the PC.  I only time I use the touch screen  is when am at the printers to load filament, cancel a failing print, or restart a failed print.  Since I don't use the touchsc…

  • To get my Monoprice Mini Delta and Mini V2 to work reliably I chose the options: Marlin Firmware, 250000bps baud rate, RTS High, DTR Low, and Malyan fix unchecked.  The Malyan boards appear to have some type of flow control enabled and want RTS to b…

  • I used a PC based logging oscilloscope and could see intermittent drops.  But that is when I was powered through USB.  Powering from the GPIO I went a bit overboard on my supply and installed a buck converter capable of supplying 10A at 5V that is b…
    in Communication Errors Again... Comment by dot_bob February 2018
  • I had a similar problem with the USB dropping out with or without a display.  The power issue was causing the USB to crash on all devices (usually in the middle of a print).  I was having issues with any micro usb power supply I tried even large 3 A…

  • I have the same problem with the Monoprice Mini Delta (malyan is the manufacturer).  For some reason they require Hardware flow control (RTS/CTS) i.e for RTS to be asserted.  Most Ardunio based printers use DTR to reset the system which are also use…

  • Here is a screenshot of what is going on every time i tell it to extrude.  If I select 100mm and extrude at 30mm/s it sends 15:52:16.930: N781 G1 X240.20 Y240.20 F180015:52:16.930: N782 G1 Z93.00 F180015:52:16.930: N783 G1 E820.00 F180015:52:16.938:…

  • It is manufactured my Malyan (http://malyansys.com).  It looks like their M200 with some additional connectors for the bed leveling sensors.  It is strange they require hardware flow control as they use a 32bit CPU and a CDC USB device driver, USB d…

  • What's the gcode are you using for this?  I may code up support and submit a pull request to marlin.

  • If it was just a communication hiccup the printer will still know it's position.  As far as mesh bed leveling goes many of the firmware's are starting to store the mesh in EEPROM it wouldn't take much to recall it.  I use UBL with marlin which store…
    in Resume print after comms failure Comment by dot_bob June 2017
  • In the meantime perhaps something to help manage multiple servers.  Have an option to specify a pool of servers on the same network.  Then at the top of the UI (be it the touchscreen or web interface) have a drop down to select a server to access.  …
    in Share printers between servers Comment by dot_bob April 2017
  • Velocity painting is changing the print surface texture and possibly the color by modifying the printing velocity or speed. There is a discussion and examples about it here: https://forum.simplify3d.com/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=6832 and here: https:…

  • Here is another update.  I think I have a clue to what was crashing repetier-server.  BTW I did have to delete the workdispatcher.sql file to get the server running again. After I deleted the database file I started repetier-server manually and left…
    in Prints crashing on raspberry pi. Comment by dot_bob March 2017
  • Here is an update..   I have been able to work around the buggy USB stack on the PI.  It was actually my cameras that were crashing the USB stack on the pi not the printers.  Anyways to work around the issue I added the following to the command line…
    in Prints crashing on raspberry pi. Comment by dot_bob February 2017
  • As far as I can tell it must be a bug in the RPI kernel.  I have tried many iterations from hub to no hub and directly attached.  I have tried two RP3's with different power adapters and pi and printers on completely different circuits.  I have trie…

  • Are you connecting to your WIFI network by chance?  I had the same issue when using wifi and it was related to the problem addressed in this post: https://forum.repetier.com/discussion/2763/image-for-raspberry-pi-3-repetier-server-0-80-1-cannot-conn…

  • Well the black screen of death has come back.  It started happening again before I had a chance to reboot.  One thing I have noticed is that even though the display is black I can touch the display and it seems to be operating the controls of the la…

  • Well the strangest thing happened.. The touch screen had timed out and I could not wake it up.  Well a few hours later my four year came by and started poking at the display and wouldn't you know the display woke up.  Ever since then it has been tim…

  • Here is an update. 1- The UI might have crashed but the print was still running and I could access repetier server over a browser on the network fine.  I will give the prebuilt image another go and look to see if I can collect more info if it happen…
