Re: Suspected RAMBo Problem
May I suggest you buy either some heatshrink, and re-terminate, or use some heat shrink tape? Electrical tape is usually not well formulated for use on moving cables, and may unwrap and put you in the same spot.

Re: Suspected RAMBo Problem
Sounds like a short somewhere may have taken out one or more of the microfuses. There are a pair of surface mount fuse holders on the board that hold tiny fuses. Take each out, and test it for continuity. Then test each output for a short circuit, with the power off.

Re: Fried my Rambo - Can I just 'drop in' a Duet board?
I have a design for a duet .8.5 drop in mount with fan holes for more normal fan sizes on the back, posted to Repables. It replaces exactly the original tray for the rambo. However, the Duet uses Molex KK series .1 inch headers, which are slightly different and don't directly mate to the Molex LP co...

Re: Laser Cutter advice and questions

Re: Rostock max V2 Keeps restarting
If the USB cable is worn, or either port, then as the connection is made and broken, arduino based boards will reset to allow updates. It may well just be the cable. Does this behavior happen with other cables, or other USB ports on your computer?

Re: Rostock MAX v2 Question
That Mosfet board is essentially a DC SSR of a specific type, but lacking the physical robustness and some safety features such as resin potting, or even an enclosed shell. It's probably not quite as good as an Auber SSR, but it's probably better than a Fauxtec is likely to be.

Re: Vertical dimension calibration PROBLEM for Rostock max V2
And is your part something like 20% too tall? The steps per MM should be 80, or very close. Any other value is either a result of mechanical modifications, or serious mechanical issues. Are you sure that you aren't using the arm length for a different set of arms (a bit confusingly, there's a few op...

Are you sure that your points are correct? that sharp edge downwards suggests there's something wrong with the Z-probe (or another inconsistent factor)

Can you check with a 100k resistor and a lower value one as well? I can also potentially send you one that is working (it boots, and is stable), but had an issue with the reset switch having died causing it to boot-loop, and it got replaced with a Duet before I had time to troubleshoot it. I wouldn'...

Re: Rostock MAX v3.2 reviews
The barrier to getting an affordable printer with a heated chamber is patents. Until the patents that Stratasys (and probably 3D Systems) expire, there's no legal way for companies like SeeMeCNC to offer a heated chamber - Stratasys certainly isn't going to license the patents to a competitor. Even...

From my perspective, as the owner of effectively a Rostock max 2.2 (Duet, auto-leveling, and all the other fancy stuff I wanted), the 3.2 is a really nice machine, since it eliminates the need for something like 500$ worth of upgrades I've done (~100$ total in FSR system, ~175-200 in the duet, ~100$...

Re: Stop during Calibration
EEPROM isn't largely about connections. It's storing configuration information (In your case, Z height, is what we care about), which while it includes the connection settings, is mostly printer calibration data. Try options, EEPROM settings. You may want to use Show Terminal first, so that you can ...

That sounds like a bad z-height setting. You should try to use something like Mattercontrol to edit the EEPROM parameter for Z-height.

Re: Stop during Calibration
It sounds like an intermittent connection in the hotend whip or connector is causing the printer to reset. Are the wires tight, and when you did the upgrade, did you replace the wires going to hotend? Alternatively, if it's just that it locks up when probing, and not manually, perhaps the code to ac...

Re: 091 Firmware pause for filament out
If you don't change the EEPROM mode, it may carry over without issue. You could also edit the EEPROM after flashing, as the last value checked will be stored there, and the EEPROM is what the firmware checks once on the board for operating parameters. Is there a reason not to upgrade the arms and ot...
