KISSlicer extrusion Problems.

Can I see a config for an H-1 ? I finally got it to work but it barley does any extruding, I see it is extruding but not nearly enough.

Tom, you really need to be more specific! Are you running an Arduino-based H-1.1 or a parallel port based with Mach? Which Arduino if that route.

It sounds like you do not have the correct option for the Printer->Firmware-Firmware Type setting. Set to 5D - Absolute E for an Arduino based controller. I am not sure if KISS supports parallel based extruders on an A, B or C axis like in Mach.

Using EMC2 which is the same as mach , it runs the extruder, just not enough. Its set to 5d-absolute e aswell.

Ok, can't help you out. I know that Slic3r has a gcode generation option for Mach/EMC. I don't know that much about KISS.

If your extruder is moving at all, perhaps it is a calibration problem?

I was thinking maybe the mm/ rev option but heard that it didn't do anything

Looks like KISS does support EMC. Check http://kisslicer.com/forum/index.php?topic=88.30

did anyone change mm/rev on KISS? from 1.25mm?

If you're using the Beta it's ignored for anything other than BFB firmware.
If you're using the released version it's only used to calculate the minimum and maximum extruder speeds, I set it to 1 because then the speeds are in mm/s, but it really doesn't matter.

Yeah That's what I thought
