Welcome to the SeeMeCNC Community

Just got the printer actually printing! However after about fifteen minutes of an hour long print job it jumped about 4mm above the layer it was working on and tried to rpint in mid air!

My eeprom settings seem off to me, should 0 be my delta radius for A<B<C? Also my X>Y>Z home position should that be 0?

I think I found how to export the settings...

i tried changing the exported file to .gcode

i don't know how to export as gcode...

anyone available to join the hangout? Ive got someissues I could use help with on calibrating my
max v2

I have finished the guide to the best of my ability, when Attmepting to print the ...

Personally I would do a clean stock e3dv6 install. It's so much easier with the thermistor. Up to 280c +/- is very reliable. I've checked mine with a thermocouple and it's almost perfect. The pt100 is a very different thing that needs tinkering. Please don't take it wrong, but if you can't do a ...

One thing to be careful about. The PT100 needs an amplifier before it gets to the Rambo (E3D and Filastruder both sell them), and you'll need to make sure you have the right profile. Other than the PT100 profile proper, they really aren't close to right. I can walk you through some of that if you'd ...

Thank you for the walkthrough. My fan shroud melted previously, that's how it looks now. I ordered the pt100, new bowden for the e3d, and fan shroud today. I'm hoping to resume building my max v2 when the parts arrive. I'm abandoning the thermistor. I will certainly follow the directions when the ...

This is the best I can do, I screwed it in as much as possible. I have only used the parts the were sent to me with the e3d. Im going to attempt to get it screwed in further. I am considering upgrading to the pt100 sensor. I am not using a volcano.

After wrapping the heating
block and lowering the pid value to 128 I updated my auto tune results and continued to the next step in the calibration manual, this video show the failure. I think I need to order another E3d. https://youtu.be/7FaF9EfrYHA

I also posted my issue with E3d (https://forum.e3d-online.com/index.php?threads/e3d-v6-on-rostock-max-v2-pid-autotune-fail.1877/#post-20172). The moderator seems to think the e3d should not require the silicone tape, which i just picked up at home depot. I am very eager to finally put this issue to ...

All of the videos I've seen, not one has silicone tape wrapped around the heat block, what is the design flaw here?

replacing the thermistor took care of the def reading.
auto tune is still failing.

Not enough heat to heating element.

Try increasing max pid value so system is able to pump more heat.

max pid is 205, the manual says to lower the value to 128 for a successful reading. What percent on fan should I do the auto tune at and how much more heat?

installed A NEW THERMISTOR tonight. ran all tests in v1 manual updated firmware for thermistor value to 8. endstops pass all tests. pid auto tune...fail. why will this test only pass when the fan is off?

Absolutely nothing has changed since updating the lcd. Everyone keeps defaulting to wiring issues, this has been checked at least twelve times. It only started displaying 'def' since todays pid.

Hello Again, I just received my new replacement lcd, I can now access firmware in the printer. My e3d hotend has an all metal mount. After trying to run a pid routine the test comes back with the result ext0 thermistor fail. Does this mean I need to replace it? I have one that came with the max v2 ...

My v2 is doing something very similar. I have followed the setup guide word for word and am at a loss as to what is happening. The calibration videos, and belt tensioning walk throughs are somewhat vague. I do not think that the arms would do that if they are passing the end stop tests and the ...

The printer responds to manual controls in matter control...this is entirely frustrating.

How do I get a new lcd...figures, sub-par design lugs on power connector shorted my printer(maybe???), i bought this printer to print, not troubleshoot for weeks and weeks and weeks.
