@engikeneer ahh that makes perfect sense, it's 0 now and at layer 25 so the superpinda isn't sensing the bed any more. Thanks

@droftarts I noticed this issue after upgrading to a CPAP remote fan setup, which when installing I rerouted some wires and like you mentioned the cable to the display ran close to the can wire and also two steppers, but just for a few cm.

As the issue was only happening when printing I took your advice and re-routed the display wire away from both can and stepper wires and guess what, no more connection issues

The testing continues. Today I've been using the Voron ringing tower.

In this example I've added a script that changes IS every 5mm in PrusaSlicer. It starts off with none, then goes to zvd 20 and increments by 5 until it reaches 70. Dampening 0.1.
Mesh is off and Pressure Advance is also off.
I've confirmed all settings while printing, even that IS is changing (with M593) and it's all correct.

It's printed in vase mode, 225mm/sec & 4k accl, Jerk 2 as those were the best settings I found yesterday.

But as you can see in the video, there's no difference (what I can tell) between no IS, zvd@20 and zvd@70.

Something else must be interfering so it's not even working?

I've even printed one tower with all shapers at the same hz and couldn't tell much of a difference if any at all.

@dc42 any ideas?

It's a bit like comparing apples and oranges -- I'm tempted to get an X1C or what ever they release next just due to the complete package.

Beside my Duet equipped FDM machine I also have an Formlabs Form3B+ and that thing is so much easier to use, you just import, support and send to print. That's it.
But you can't achieve that unless you control the entire process -- software, hardware and firmware.

Duet can for sure improve the user experience with things that frankly should have been there from the start, like homing, filament change etc. macros. But they can't do what Bambu have done simply because they do not sell the printer, just what controls it.

Hi there,

Has anyone got a baseline setup for an Ender 5+ to share?

I'm coming from Marlin so lots of new stuff to learn, so just looking for a little shortcut if possible

In the online configuration tool I can't see how to setup dual-z axis, do I have to set that up manually?

Thanks

@Norder thank you for the help, greatly appreciated.

@Threepwood interesting to read about your issues, I have the exact same problem and I'm also running a light weight gantry VzBot extruder/hotend with a 1LC toolboard and CPAP.

I needed a funnel today, it printed but looked awful from all "shaking".

@chrishamm ahh ok, things happen. Are you saying a simple dist-upgrade should update firmwares on all devices?

From my experience it only downloads the binaries, I have to manually issue M997 to update each device.

If you could write the steps I should take to get everything updated in the correct way I would appreciate it.

@gloomyandy I don't know if this means something else, but it sure looks like 3.4.6-2 too me.

Can someone post the correct way todo a firmware upgrade on a complete system?

I always have to fiddle to get all my components (6HC, SBC, 1LC, Panel Due 7i) updated.

Now with the 3.4.6-2 release I got from doing an apt update I haven't managed to get that installed, M122 still reports 3.4.6 with a compile date from July.

After the apt update I issue the following commands:

• M122 to confirm versions pre update
• M997 S0 to update the 6HC
• M997 S2 for the SBC
• M997 B121 to finally update the 1LC
• M122 to confirm that all components are updated

Is this the "correct" way of doing it?

@apak I have it setup like this, without X last few % didn't do anything.

M106 P0 C"CPAP Fan" S0 B0.1 H-1 L33 X214

@droftarts just did a print but the fan was not controlled by the slicer, nor from PanelDue 7i, only way to turn in on was through DWC.

Did I miss something in my config?
config.g

@dc42 I'm looking forward to trying that. Any rough eta on 3.5?

@droftarts thank you

@jay_s_uk L33 oooo yeahhh
