Hello ,
i just revived my Ormerod 2 after few years of it lying in a corner and i am wondering ,anyone still using Ormerod 2 and configured Orca slicer for it? if so can you post the configuration for it? i want to try it ,but seems a bit complicated for me,
I know the possibility of getting your reply is really low, but, have you find the configuration? Can you share with me if yes?
Thanks]]> Gar1 Ormerod Fri, 10 Oct 2025 09:59:05 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894584,894587#msg-894587 Re: Orca Slicer https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894584,894587#msg-894587 forum.duet3d.com].]]> dc42 Ormerod Mon, 25 Mar 2024 03:35:21 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894584,894584#msg-894584 Orca Slicer https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894584,894584#msg-894584 i just revived my Ormerod 2 after few years of it lying in a corner and i am wondering ,anyone still using Ormerod 2 and configured Orca slicer for it? if so can you post the configuration for it? i want to try it ,but seems a bit complicated for me,]]> Darathy Ormerod Sun, 24 Mar 2024 16:30:26 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894468,894508#msg-894508 Re: 5v regulator PCB for O2 - where to buy? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894468,894508#msg-894508 Sardi Ormerod Mon, 11 Mar 2024 05:52:12 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894468,894497#msg-894497 Re: 5v regulator PCB for O2 - where to buy? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894468,894497#msg-894497 dc42 Ormerod Fri, 08 Mar 2024 07:44:06 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894468,894473#msg-894473 Re: 5v regulator PCB for O2 - where to buy? https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,894468,894473#msg-894473
I found this image. So I suppose I need to put a jumper on the JP9, and remove it from JP10?

I want to convert my O1 power supply to O2 power supply and I need this regulator.
I looked everywhere, but its nowhere to be found any more.

Anyone has any idea where I could get one?
Or if I even need it, maybe I can hook up everything without it?

1) power supply
2) not having done the PID tuning

Doing/fixing either of those solved my problems.]]> Sardi Ormerod Mon, 04 Mar 2024 07:35:45 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894463#msg-894463 Re: Slow Heating of Hotend https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894463#msg-894463 dongdong5212a Ormerod Sun, 03 Mar 2024 03:00:19 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894462#msg-894462 Re: Slow Heating of Hotend https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894462#msg-894462 forum.duet3d.com].]]> dc42 Ormerod Sun, 03 Mar 2024 01:55:09 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894449#msg-894449 Re: Slow Heating of Hotend https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894449#msg-894449
With the heater turned on I measured approx 4.3V gate to ground where the +5V rail measured 5V. The voltage should have been around 4.95V.

I also noticed that TR4 heated up but not enough to burn the PCB.

With the damaged gate I was surprised that that the MOSFET switched at all let alone partially.

The printer was still under guarantee and RS Components insisted on changing the printer so when I built the new printer I confirmed that T4 gate voltage was almost 5V.

Hope that helps."

Now the E3D tool changer is based on duet2, I think maybe changing duet3 will solve the problem. at first, I wan to change the hot end, or the temperature sensor. but I see the discussion above, the problem still exists.]]> dongdong5212a Ormerod Thu, 29 Feb 2024 08:05:58 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894448#msg-894448 Re: Slow Heating of Hotend https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894448#msg-894448 dc42 Ormerod Thu, 29 Feb 2024 01:50:33 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894443#msg-894443 Re: Slow Heating of Hotend https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,875644,894443#msg-894443 dongdong5212a Ormerod Mon, 26 Feb 2024 19:56:18 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,893880,894177#msg-894177 Re: Fired up my old Ornerod 1 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,893880,894177#msg-894177 Then I didn't use the Voron either for a couple years, one of the reasons being some issues with the old Duet board (no firmware new enough to support the BLTouch probe I wanted to install, after moving not having a good spot with wired ethernet to put the printer, and me not remembering quite how I had wired things for a second PWM fan driver).
A couple weeks ago, I did an overhaul on it, replacing some parts and tidying up all the wiring, and a new controller board (an SKR Pico + RPi4 with Klipper and Mainsail). During that process, I decided my dear old Ormerod would never run again, so I scavenged some more parts from it (stepper motor, part of the wiring harness and some of the mounting hardware). So while my Ormerod is now permanently dismantled, it's spirit lives on in the form of some parts in my Printer of Theseus, currently mostly in the shape of a Voron 1.55.

I do remember this community as being pretty awesome while using that printer though. So many fixes and upgrades to the somewhat flawed original Ormerod design, and the work of dc42 and chrishamm (and probably many others) on the reprapfirmware and duetwebcontrol which took it from barely useable to really good, especially compared to what else was available at the time. While 3d printing is a lot more accessible and reliable now, those days were definitely more adventurous and in some ways more fun.]]> jstck Ormerod Sat, 20 Jan 2024 17:57:50 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,893880,894144#msg-894144 Re: Fired up my old Ornerod 1 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,893880,894144#msg-894144 Ive got 2 of them, O1 and O2, somewhat modified but not much.

If you are in the UK as your username suggests, I could send you my 4-pin proximity sensor if you PM me your address]]> dc42 Ormerod Thu, 03 Mar 2022 07:12:49 -0500 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,888534,888534#msg-888534 Proximity Sensor - Fix https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?340,888534,888534#msg-888534

Long story short I've managed to send 12v into the sensor and of course I was greeted with celebratory fireworks here.

Hence only one component seems to be blown this should be 2min fix, of course if only I would be able to tell what was the component.

Anyone could point me into the right direction?!

Much appreciated in advance.

They are both connected to a router, and Im controlling Ormerod 1 without any issues, but O2 page just keeps loading.

EDIT: somehow managed to click "Connect" and get it to "Retrying" but that is as far as it goes.
