I'd get these personally and <- includes tubing if you leave the option selected, I would buy 2-3 and that is all you would need. Sealant is not needed, stick the thermistor in the hole and tape the insulated leads to the block or somewhere on the hotend and run tape over the hole the thermistor is in to secure it. You can solder the joints, be careful as the wires are tiny. Those joby tjb1 - Reprappers
Quotevreihen Quotetjb1 Another problem is that displays like the full graphic do not work with delta printers on Marlin at least, running the display causes the printer to stutter through moves and pause at random times. The printer will work with it on but may have problems, I have tried it on mine with delta segments from 20-200 and can not resolve the problem without removing the display. Trby tjb1 - General

QuoteAvocation Thanks TJB1, What's the rationale for not adding this functionality? Surely it's valuable for lots of applications... Richard It requires slicer implementation, that itself will require the big ones to decide on a G or M code to use for timing. Something like G700 S152323 would probably work with the numbers following the S being the print time in seconds. Then it must be impleby tjb1 - General
Quotetjb1 That bar is the indicator, it's based off file size I believe. There is currently no way to get a countdown timer or layer height. I have tried to get Kisslicer to add the total print time in seconds as a gcode which we could read in the firmware and countdown instead of up but it has not happened yet.

QuoteKyle R Thank you both for your thorough replies, I'm now really starting to get a strong feeling for how G code is structured. My next conceptual challenge is how to get the slicer to actually include those commands within the code itself.

Quotemwhatch I am currently running a phoenix, did have some issues but am getting good results. The software is the limiting factor. I would like to get it going with Repetier or Mattercontrol but not much luck. What is the issue....no one can help unless you describe the issue of why it will not work.

QuoteBackEMF Thanks for the reminder, I almost forgot to check. I just took the sample out of the vinegar and the only thing that seems to have changed is the color. The color is a bit more vibrant. The PLA feels a bit more flexible but it can also be messing with my mind a bit. So lets just say it doesn't really work for what I had in mind.

Quotepolkary waitaki Thank you! following your guide lines I've resolved the issue. I've moved to the official delta. I'm not sure it is a bug since I've just began to learn the firmware but although I've selected #define MOTHERBOARD 33 This DIDN'T ENFORCED the "TEMP_SENSOR_BED" to be 1 on the configuration file hence has you mentioned it wasn't active.

I guess there is a big time difference, but it's really frustrating to have my mostly built printer sit idle for days while waiting. I'm waiting for them to ship a replacement printed extruder piece. I sure hope the new piece fits! Meanwhile, I don't think I can do anything else until I get the hby tjb1 - Reprappers

QuoteGryffin Well, even EZ3D wasn't able to get Repetier to work, but I think you misunderstand. I have already disassembled the Phoenix, taken the parts I needed, and built a Prusa i3v out of it. The newly-constructed machine works great. I spent nearly three months working with the Phoenix and got nothing. I spent three days working with the Prusa and am getting great prints. My only hopeby tjb1 - General
QuoteGryffin Oh yes, it can certainly be done, but if you make any changes, then EZ3D says they will not offer any support. Still, in my case, I used the parts from the Phoenix to build a Prusa i3v (and have obviously changed the firmware myself), so it's not an issue for me. I can confirm that the Phoenix firmware as installed won't work with Repetier-Host, though. What doesn't work about itby tjb1 - General
Can you please share the Marlin that it uses, I'm sure there is a way to get it running on other software. Edit: I've found the firmware, I don't see anything that would prevent it from running on Repetier or Pronterface. It's just a preconfigured version of Marlin running on a RAMBo according to configuration.h. Some of the changes they have made seem unnecessary and don't seem to match theby tjb1 - General

Quoteerkall77 My hot end is wired with the same gauge wire as the heated bed. Plus the hot end is heated to a higher temperature. And yet, the hot end heats up perfectly. So, could the wire gauge still be the problem? I think the wire gauge is 20 though. Also, the wire going between 2 and 3 is the same wire that goes to 2. Is that a problem? - K The hotend draws less than half the currenby tjb1 - Reprappers

As you can see, first I had an error at the end of the feature, and then, after using the parameters, my temperature curve is oscillating, whilst during the feature, we can see that it can be rather steady.

Quotecsteriov My hotend is correct (around room temperature) however, my hotbed says a negative temperature. Did you set the correct thermistor?by tjb1 - General
Reads a temp? You need to elaborate, the host is suppose to display a temperature of both the hotend and heatedbed if present. Temperatures should be around 20C at room temp.by tjb1 - General
