Looks correct to me. If using Skeinforge you will need to change where center is from 100 x 100 to 150 x 150 in the multiply tab.

I use Ben's replicatorG with SF39 to slice. I have a .4xxx mm nozzle and extrude at a super high 225degrees to achieve the high speeds (120mm/s max with slower acceleration setting of 60,000 but more blobs). I am attaching the my latest repG/SF39 profile for you. But I found the only way to avoid corrupt data was to use GTKterm to send the file using Xon/Xoff. Quotemy config speed settings //

First off I use commit f555887eb58ca1adcd1b because I could never get the newer one to produce a good print. And I only use PLA. Second I have always had the m101 and m103 work in both direction but it did not actually reduce my bumps because it causes a small pause where it stops to retract which causes a BLOB. (my bowden takes 400 steps just to remove the slack in the filament which takes way

I did not realize it was so sensitive to the previous move even with a new F command. Good to know and I guess its all the more reason to use a different firmware. And yes Teacup uses the M101 and M103 to activate automatic retraction every time the extruder is supposed to start/stop.

I just added active cooling and I am having a hard time reaching my target temp of 220 because of a small amount of air hitting my heater block. It hovers around 217.25, I do plan to insulate the heater block to solve the problem but wondered if there was a way to increase the output. After looking through the code I found /// default scaled I limit #define DEFAULT_I_LIMIT 384 . Is this where I

I believe if you look your Gcode it will look like: QuoteNo Z speed limit between layers G1 X-2.7 Y-0.15 Z0.2 F2400.0 E4.0299 G1 X-2.57 Y0.82 Z0.2 F2400.0 E0.9828 G1 X-1.67 Y1.72 Z0.2 F2400.0 E1.2731 M103 G1 X-0.97 Y2.43 Z0.58 F4800.0 <--- Z move at travel rate in skeinforge M101 G1 X-1.07 Y2.38 Z0.6 F2400.0 E0.115 <--- Z move at feed rate in skeinforge G1 X-1.46 Y2.18 Z0.6 F2400.0 E0.

I would say the reason it is slow is because the accelerations default value is far to low. The latest commit of teacup uses the same measurement of acceleration as Sprinter. But for some reason Teacups default is 10mm/s^2 where as Sprinters is 750mm/s^2. As for the temperature it may be the same issue Stafanst has which seems to be with the latest Windows Repsnapper not Teacup.

I believe the problem is that reprap firmware uses the speed of the last move to try and move the Z-stage which can not run at that high of speed. To deal with this skeinforge has an option to limit the speed of the Z axis. Its in craft under the Limit tab.

@Stefanst 0.25 is what it reads when the thermistor is disconnected and the 866 could be from a short. So is it possible you have a break in one of your connections?

I use Teacup and have issues with communications between repG/repsnapper due to some hardware issues. My solution is to turn on Xon/Xoff in Teacup and send the raw Gcode file to my Arduino/Ramps using GTKterm. Just make sure DTR and RTS are turned off in GTKterm (or mincom or other serial terminal) and Xon/Xoff flow control is enabled. At 115200 and a 4kb buffer it never pauses at all. (default

@ unexpectedly Actually now that I read back a bit I see that some of you are using SF40 which uses feed stock input vs. extruded length output for 39 and earlier. Which could be the cause for your issue in the first place. A circle of 3mm has a surface area of 7.069 which is 29.702 times larger than than 0.238 which is the surface area of a 0.55mm circle. Sounds awfully close to the 500 extrude

@unexpectedly It looks like you have your setting off by about 30 times. So start by dividing your E_steps_per_mm by 30. Are you using Inches in your models and/or Skeinforge by any chance?

@unexpectedly Looking at your Speed settings make me think you have your E_steps_per_mm set wrong. I run my machine with skeinforges feedrate and flowrate equal but it does require having the E_steps_per_mm set perfectly. So instead of changing the flow rate in skeinforge to get it right change the E_steps_per_mm in the firmware until you have it correct.

Hello, I have been using Teacup since the beginning of my RepRap life but thought I would try out Sprinter and found that the Config file was not as clean as Teacups and noticed a few places for improvement. I added the ability to change microstepping easily (taken from teacup) I rearranged the config file to make it easier to follow. I added defines to make it a little less overwhelming for n

I don't think you need M109's when using PID heat control. I preheat and and just use M104's, If I blow directly on the heater block and the temperature drops it will stop the build until it reaching temp again. I have TEMP_HYSTERESIS 5 and TEMP_RESIDENCY 1

Maybe, The old teacup including the one I use has the ramping acceleration set to 500,000 originally but it makes for painfully slow builds. I went down from 500,000 to 250,000 then 125,000 then 75,000 then 50,000 and even faster but found it is to easy to skip steps any faster than 50,000. At 50,000 it accelerates fast enough that it almost seems like it is turned off.

No I didn't change anything else. You can not have oozebane on or reversing enabled in the dimension tab. I am using with the ramping set to 50,000. I checked a Gcode file I've created and it has no negative E movements. I also use relative E movements.
