zeroing bed

Post by Behold »

This may have been discussed but when I searched the issues didnt seem the same as what is happening with mine.

I have a Rostock Max ver 1.

My hot end became loose from the ceramic sheath and I replaced it with a new hot end.

The new hot end is a different length than the old one.

How do I adjust for the added length?

I believe it's covered in the manual, which is available for download.
Basically you need to adjust the X Y and Z max length settings in the EEPROM settings, I think the latest repetier has a quick way to do it from the LCD, but I don't use it.

Check your com port in device manager.

If that doesn't work, see if you can connect with Arduino IDE and re-flash it.

If the com port is correct than the baud rate setting in Repetier Host must be incorrect.
The baud rate has to match what is in the Repetier Firmware.
