If you activate Temperature you also need to activate Raft (but disable Add Raft, ...) to get it to put temperatures into the gcode. For bed temperature changes you need to activate Chamber.

You can also accesses the values in start.gcode like this:

M83 ; use relative distances for extrusion
G28 ; home axes
G1 X5 Y98 F9000 ; go to front of bed
G1 Z0.05 ; use the bed to block the nozzle to prevent ooze
M190 S100 ; heat the bed part way
M104 S< setting.temperature.ObjectNextLayersTemperature> ; start the nozzle heating
M190 S< setting.chamber.BedTemperature> ; finish heating the bed
M109 S< setting.temperature.ObjectFirstLayerPerimeterTemperature> ; wait for nozzle to heat
G92 E0    ; zero the extruder
G1 E3 F50 ; make a blob
G1 E-1 F1200 ; retract
G1 X40 F4000 ; wipe along the edge of the bed
G1 Z0.3     ; lift before move to centre

but without the spaces after the less than sign.

And what is with the Temperatures?

Did you enabled "Activate Temperature"?

And if yes, did you make any changes?
I want to implement the Skeinforge tool to another program and so i don’t want to set the Temperature manually.

Now it works.

Thank you very much,

Copy PLA0.3 and call it ABS0.3, Change start_PLA.gcode to start_ABS.gcode in the Alterations tab and it should give a reasonable starting point.

Hi,
started Skeinforge the first time, closed it and than included the settings from GIT. With the configuration I can use the PLA0.2/PLA0.3 profiles without problems.

Now I want to print with ABS filament, but with the generated gcode from the ABS profile the mendel90 tries to print a raft with a very high extrude speed (the big wheel rotates 1/2-1 upm) so the hobbed bolt brokes the filament.

Her the first lines of the gcode:
G90
G21
M103
M105
M140 S60.0
M141 S30.0
M142 S0.0
M113 S1.0
M108 S210.0
M104 S200.0
G1 X-5.76 Y-2.952 Z0.72 F60.0
G1 F1200.0
G1 E1.0
G1 F60.0
M101
G1 X-5.76 Y74.952 Z0.72 F240.0 E183.3537
G1 X-2.88 Y74.952 Z0.72 F240.0 E6.7783
G1 X-2.88 Y-2.952 Z0.72 F240.0 E183.3537
G1 X0.0 Y-2.952 Z0.72 F240.0 E6.7783
G1 X0.0 Y74.952 Z0.72 F240.0 E183.3537
G1 X2.88 Y74.952 Z0.72 F240.0 E6.7783
G1 X2.88 Y-2.952 Z0.72 F240.0 E183.3537
G1 X5.76 Y-2.952 Z0.72 F240.0 E6.7783
G1 X5.76 Y74.952 Z0.72 F240.0 E183.3537

Have anyone the right settings for ABS?

Thanks and bye,
Norman
