empty sd card

I'm sure this has cropped up before but..

I've assembled all the mechanical parts of my ormerod 1 & want to set up the electronics only to find that the sd card supplied is completely blank.

I can load & read from the card so there's no fault with it or the readers.

I need all the files, or preferably updates, that should be on the card. I've searched the site but can't find them.

Would some kind person please point me in the right direction.

regards

Try [github.com]. If it is an early Ormerod 1 kit, then you may need to get a better SD card as the ones supplied with early kits often work in the PC but not in the Duet.

Setting up the SD card is in the Commissioning instructions: [reprappro.com]

Yea, the sd cards don't come with data on them. This confused me while setting up my printer (an O2) for a couple of minutes. But in retrospect, it should have been obvious because the cards come sealed in their original packaging.

Maybe I missed something in the directions that said the sd card was blank, not sure.

Not a big deal, just have to load the files on from github.

Thanks all,

I've sourced the files & will try again.

I must have read the troubleshooting page first.

Obvious case of brain fade, doesn't take much to confuse the old chap these days.
