Re: I'm back and wanting to upgrade

I'm interested in seeing your upgrades.

Can you share a drawing / dimensions for your custom carriages?

Upgrade V1 to accelerometer (wiring guide)

I've got a Rostock Max V1, and always found calibrating annoying. I saw the new HE280 accelerometer board and bought one straight away. Then I had to figure out how to get it working. The below pictures show my wiring / setup. I have left my heater cartridge and termocouple separate, they are not wi...

Re: Making the Rostock Max quieter

These dampers are great! Cut the sound of the machine by 2/3rds I reckon - gone from a bit loud / annoying to sit next to, to reasonably quiet and not interfering with music etc. Ordered on evening of 14th and arrived (from UK to Australia) on day of 20th. 4 working days! Install took me about 45 mi...

Re: Making the Rostock Max quieter

Thanks for the thread.

Astrosyn have quoted me £2.65 per damper, plus £15 shipping to Australia for up to 20 dampers

If there are an aussies who want some dampers, contact me ASAP as I will be ordering some shortly and can order some extras and pass them on

Re: My Rambo and Onyx issues and fixes

First print! I've rigged up a second power supply for the heated bed. Working fine with this. First couple of prints didn't stick to glass - added kapton tape and working well. Crappy photo of the print on the bed [img]http://images.imagineant.com/d/211542-1/20130808_203801.jpg[/img] View of bottom ...

Re: My Rambo and Onyx issues and fixes

I've just tried putting a load on the 5v rail as some ATX power supplies need this to regulate 12v properly. Two hard drives (label says 0.8A 5V) connected - PSU still cuts out frequently with heated bed. I hooked up a separate old PSU to the heated bed power (to Rambo) and that seemed to work fine....

Re: My Rambo and Onyx issues and fixes

I think it is something to do with load on PSU / different rails.

The PSU seems to stay on more often if I also have the hot end on when I turn on the onyx.

So:
Hot end doesn't cause any problems
Onyx alone trips PSU
Hot end for a few seconds then onyx stays on for a while then cuts out.

Re: My Rambo and Onyx issues and fixes

I thought the numbers look large, but this is my first foray into 3D printing.

Those numbers are definitely what auto-tune gave me.

I've reset them to default values (15, 0.9, 40)

Turning on heated bed still trips PSU

Re: My Rambo and Onyx issues and fixes

Gah Onyx issue continues.

It ran a PID tune cycle fine.
Values:
Kp 836.4233333333333
Ki 278.4733333333333
Kd 629.36

I put them in the EEPROM in Repetier host and now it's doing the same thing where PSU cuts out as soon as onyx is turned on!
Help!

My Rambo and Onyx issues and fixes

Hi guys, I've been assembling my Rostock Max for the past week or two. I originally bought the BYOLaser kit back in May. I had a K40 small Chinese laser - I didn't realise until after the kit shipped that my laser was much too small to cut the parts. The Rostock is a big printer. So I then decided t...
