@droftarts thanks!

@droftarts that is really helpful!
-
@droftarts I posted a series of pictures of my printer on Instagram. You can find me there @Corlissmedia2.0

@corlissmedia sorry, I don’t ‘do’ instagram! You can post images here, too, which would make it easier for people trying to help you.

@droftarts understood, so now I have to figure that out. Another learning experience!

Use the image upload function baked in to upload images to articles.

@oliof some of the tools are off the screen on my phone.

@corlissmedia thanks. Any labels on the motors? If you can still access the original electronics, you may be able to get some information off it. What is the exact manufacturer's name and model name/number? They may have their firmware on GitHub.

@droftarts This is the most information I've found so far: link text
Here's the info on the above page about the board: link text
There's no printed information on the motors, but here's what I can tell you: all of the mounting screws are 30mm apart, the bodies are 42 x42mm square, and 37.5mm deep.
This printer has a single lead screen (left side). That's where the X and filament drive motors are.
The bed's 220 by 220, and the possible vertical rise is 240.
I swapped out their 15amp power supply for a Meanwell 20amp supply when I installed a heated bed on this printer.
This man has a lot to say about the board in this printer: link text
There's a mention of Dlion as the manufacturer of the board.
Here's an interesting color drawing of the board, next to a shot of the board in the printer, what a rat's next! [link text](https://community.ultimaker.com/topic/33347-need-motherboard-for-my-xvico/

If I find any more cogent info, I'll let you know.
