Thank you once again for your patience and all the help. 3d printing is new to me. And my computer skills imprive daily. Cura now loads a file

Thank you

So i read the post you sent i understand the theory behind, but being a dyslectic, math would not be my strong suit.. ... i have esteps of 415 in my m92 and a total of 97 mm total extrution out of a 100mm,,,, I'm comming up three mm short
Would someone be kind enough to run the equation for me. Im afraid i have no clue.
I'm not be able to understand the fractional equation...
Thanks guys,,, in advance.
A work around would be fine too ..i though about just canging the value intill I'm supper close but that wouldn't nessicary be correct either..
....just closer
Im a firm believer in finding your own solutions but with this kind of thing this forum has great value for myself and others like me.

VOLTAGE CHANGE ON HEATED BED
I have. A cr10-s5 Some timen ago i asked if one could change the voltage on a stock cr10s5. If you remove the build platform you will see 4 solder connections indicating that there might be two coils
Leading one to think that the change is possable from 12v to 24v. Im sad to report ( at least on my machien ) it is not an option ..the pads are paired and can not be wired in seires. For those that would like to heat a little faster looking at a complete reolacment of your heating pad is the most likely going to be the only option. Sorry guys but no cheep fix here. Thanks for your input. its not often we get this level of support keep up the good work and thanks duet for a great product

I understand"finally." Thanks guys
If my memory serves me right ..when i first bought it as a cr10-5s curra would communicate and move The printer thru the curra software, but with the usb

so here is where i lost it
When the dwc was installed. That was no longer possable.
So i move my printer and write to the sd csrd thru the dwc. never the slicer.. just forget that that was with the original control card

And if i wish (but only) transfer a finished gcode file
Via curra (using the addon) ... to the dwc onto the sd card
Then launch the print ....

Ultimatly i loose the printer controls via usb for curra... No biggie! just use duet wifi interface instead

Last... to understand the curra addon,,it only writes your choosen gcode file to the sd card in the duet via the wifi funtion and that is all it is capable of

Would that be correct?

For refreance the 95% extrution solved most of the gunk on the nozzle thanks for the input guys

So thanks for all the input
I managed to putball the pieces together and have the printer running consistent 1st layers.
Everyone who chimed in contributed to a bit of the picture in the true spirit of this site.
Once again i have had success at one more strugle to understand... thanks again for all the help
The last piece i was missing was the actual hieght the capasitive sensor gives the best readings.
2MM was what i found out.
Thanks all...... Ed........

My second question would be for dc42
As far as 3rd party slicer programs, are there any plans to incorperate a wifi link that we can use with
Oter slicer Programs in the future such as mattercontrol or other independant proprietary Slicers. I believe as of now the only
Slicer that will work via wifi is curra with the proper add on.

16055140473776388353493397964383.jpg Could not find a sili! sock for my mosquito hotend so i down loaded a mold i thought it turned.out realy good for.high temp silicone got the mold off of thingiverse in case you need one too
1..My question is if i add the sock now i should retune my p.i.d.???? And
2...when i give the gcode comand does it override the previous entry automaticaly...

I might.be off base but did you check the fuses on the board there are 2 of them pull them off the board and check them with a meter both of them...
Also you might have a Moffett ( small circuit board w a heat sink on it ...it is between the bed and the board itself
That's where I'd start to look. You can look at the ongoing termi Al's with you volt meter, if
You do have power there you could have a blown Mosfet

I also believe the entry in the g code for the hemera hotend temp sensor has a different # that Need's to be entered in config g file then run your pid.. you can find d that in the docs section I would have to look at my gcode tomorrow and see what that is or ask the manufacturer to supply that. is if someone knows it
I'm running a hemera also

Will do tomorrow bed time for now and thank you for the input

Understud. And thanks for all the help
Its running tons better. You guys rock

SO FOR OTHERS TO HAVE THIS INFO!!!
After trying several things with the starlink router I did not have any success
I believe that starlinks router can't recognize that I'm working with 2.4g. Even though ther is a switch in ther programing to split out 2.4g.
How I overcame this was to get a network adapter for the starlink system...
Then plugged in a separate router that had band steering (linksys EA8300) which recognized I'm working with 2.4 g. Problem solved
Thanks again for the help guys !!!!
Hope this will help someone else down the line who is dependent on a starlink system.

I found the sensors all gad its addvantages and dis -advantages after som monkeyong arround i decided to try this

You guys rock !!!
