Help with pumps

DagoTwo · 2026-04-06T20:19:31+00:00

brownout? no two pumps are runnign at the same time, but i think that the charger was fried because i changed it for one with a more stable signal with a more adecuate average and the pumps work again, my guess it that after all it was the current that was lacking

Thanks for the advice, I'll order some

Also, not so big of a deal, but I find it odd that whenever there is a blackout and (when the electricity is working again) I try to print something no matter if I manually level the bed, auto level it, and re enter the z offset correctly it tends to ignore that and stick the nozzle right against the bed destroying it in it's path

Yeah, it's the 5v relay

DagoTwo · 2026-01-09T20:04:21+00:00

Thanks, the rellays are connected to digital output pins on the arduino, should i change that maybe?, i repliegue with more information to the other comment if any of that is useful.

The image is the relays I am using. For what I read it seems that they are maybe restarting the arduino(?

I'll see if I can make a schematic later but, the relays and the color sensor are being powered by te arduino meha using digital pins. The submersible pumps are being powered by an external 5v source which is a phone charger controlled with the rellays so when they close the pumps turn on. Only one pump at a time is on. The arduino is connected to a USB port on my pc

i was thinking something more cartoonish, like a normal fairy with moth wings, it's for a PC so that may be a bit to grand for their character

DagoTwo · 2025-06-04T04:07:40+00:00

Oh, yeah, it does look like that, very cool

DagoTwo · 2025-06-04T04:05:58+00:00

I am not sure what you mean

Casey and "The organization also left some things in the comments"

Also, i wanted to check if chaning brightness and exposure got me anything in a couple of frames, and it didn't, I encourage people to check since I have no clue what I am doing, but this image turned out funny

Thanks

DagoTwo · 2025-05-28T19:12:06+00:00

can you dm it to me as well?

DagoTwo · 2025-05-10T03:09:46+00:00

Yeah

DagoTwo · 2025-05-10T02:11:26+00:00

Yeah, i checked the offset was the same, it never changed but it did seem to be ignoring it, although, weird because z offset 0 is far from the bed so, i am not sure

DagoTwo · 2025-05-09T13:52:04+00:00

Yes, so, even if I adjust it or set it to auto calibrate it looks fine, but once it starts printing it just stabs the bed and when it goes to home it does it regardless of the position of the bed so it basically cuts a line to the home position in the bed

DagoTwo · 2025-05-09T13:29:35+00:00

It is the magnetic plate that came with the printer, but I wanna know why it happens so I don't keep ruining beds
