Temperatures read "Def"

I have noticed for large prints and heating the bed to 90 degrees C or more for a couple hours that the printer will throw a "double def" error while the hot end continues to move without filament running through it. In addition: I have noticed as well as others here that the V3 is advertised to ...

Re: Error in Step 6 of new Rostock V3

I believe when my dear family put together the carriages they used shorter screws. I got it fixed and now I'm trying to learn how to print with ABS. Thanks for your help!

Rostock V3 User Guide

Will there be a Rostock V3 User Guide for noobs like myself? Is the Rostock v2 manual relevant enough for the V3? I printed 6 times and the first 3 resembled tumble weeds, here is the last 3.

Re: Error in Step 6 of new Rostock V3

I went to mattercontrol, connected the printer and went to the control setting where I manually adjusted the bed temperature with success but could not jog the arms. I checked the rambo and it appears all the power cords are in. Curiously, none of the arms have ever moved.

Re: Error in Step 6 of new Rostock V3

I pressed the print button for sure. I tried to load the gcode onto a sd card and that didnt work either. I tested the hot bed and the hot end and they both work on the LCD menu. I fear there might be something wrong with the stepper motors/wiring because it will not home the printer and the arms ...
