Instructions for installing E3D V6 Hotend... HALP PLZ.

Post by williammcd15 »

So, I basically have an understanding on how to install the E3D V6, but I have been told that you must to some adjustments in the software, and I have searched for a few days with no luck. Can anyone either supply me with a link with the needed instructions, or possibly help me understand what needs to be done to get it working correctly. I was told you need to adjust the mm/s, setup the thermistor and heater, and I know how to PID tune.

Any & all help is greatly appreciated! :D
