I am using arduino 0021, it's not the latest but it works well with sanguino, updating may help, I have only ever had a similar error when I put the files in the wrong places to start, to make sure you haven't done this you need to copy the folder in the zip file I posted to a suitable place without moving any files, the folder tree should look like this: SOME_FOLDER | |___FiveD_GCode_Interby danieljabailey - RepSnapper
I'm not sure if there were any big changes but I seem to remember some change happening to the gen 6. Maybe I was wrong. I have attached the FiveD code that I now have on my gen 6.by danieljabailey - RepSnapper

I am using the reprap java host and I am having trouble preventing holes from appearing in the top layers of my prints, I wanted to find an option to print the fine layers slower but couldn't find one, I have set the outline to print slower and it looks great, really smooth, no faults at all. if the same was possible with the top layers this may solve the problem, I have also noticed that the optby danieljabailey - RepRap Host
P.S. The way I set mine up was with both as masters and slaves although the Reprap was the slave most of the time, I didn't have to worry about this much, you probably won't either.by danieljabailey - RepSnapper
On the gen 6, the i2c header has four pins, 1 to 4. pin 1 is 5 volts and pin 2 is ground, you can use this to power your arduino if you wish, pin 3 is SDA and pin 4 is SCL. on the arduino uno, analog pins 4 and 5 are for i2c, 4 is SDA and 5 is SCL, you need to connect the SDA on the Uno to the SDA on the Gen6, same with SCL, once you have done this you just need the appropriate firmware to testby danieljabailey - RepSnapper
I have had a look at Skeinforge but found that it was ridiculously overcomplicated, I only need something simple for my Reprap use. I'm sure I cannot be the only one with this problem as it happens to every GCode file I make with the software, unmodified, with almost all preferences at the default (only the temperatures are different I think, I haven't tuned them much yet at all).by danieljabailey - RepRap Host
How do I disable plugins in the reprap host software? What is this "Filet" that you speak of?by danieljabailey - RepRap Host
Nozzle crushes print at end of every run I recently updated my host software as the old 64 bit windows version was buging me (excuse the pun) It seems that with the latest host software on linux (version 2011 - 05 - 09) that the gcode files produced have at the end some code to make the extruder move towards the bed and therefore half-crush-half-melt the printed object.
