HintLightbulb.png Hint: These are the latest software instructions as of 1/2018. These apply to all D3D versions. The only adjustments between versions, assuming they were built to spec, are bed size and location of probe compared to the extruder.

Firmware

Arduino IDE

  • Open up Arduino IDE. If not using OSE Linux, download Arduino IDE v1.6.8 (tested, not new version. Do not use the newest versions. which have not been tested)
  • Upload firmware from section above - after connecting USB B Connector to RAMPS controller
  • Firmware includes geometrical properties of the 3D printer - such as settings for the print bed size, location of probe, location of endstops, etc.
  • Select Arduino Mega from Tools/Board. Select appropriate USB port from Tools/Port.
  • After software is done uploading, quit out of Arduino IDE and open up Cura

Cura

  • Open up Lulzbot Cura. If not using OSE Linux, download Lulzbot Cura.
  • Cura already has the initialization profile on OSE Linux. If you are running it on a non-OSE Linux operating system, download D3D_Lulzbot_Cura#Configuration_Profile_-_Files and load up the profile. To load it up, go to File-> Open Profile...
  • Downoad a sample file - File:Hollow10.stl
  • Drag it into Cura, to wake up the control screen.
  • Test manual motion.

Changing the Geometry in D3D Marlin

  • To select bed size and motion area - line number _______
  • To select location of sensor - line number ______ -
  • To select probing type - select 3-point in line number __________
  • To select different thermistors - line number __________ - standard thermistors are 100k

Known Error Messages and Solutions

  • Arduino IDE - If you get a COM1 error in the Arduino monotor when trying to upload to the Arduino microcontroller - go to Tools/Port and select the correst USB port.
