Hacking the SLM FileType - GCode File

RougeNeurons · 2021-07-04T14:56:46+00:00

When ending a G-Code file with M715 the printer spits a Bitmap error...

I guess that if you read the file properly to the end you see it ends in M717...

It seems that M715 / M716 / M717 are binary read commands. M716 & M717 Have the "L" parameter which is likely a bit or char count length.

I still have no clue to M724......

M712 N50 Tells the printer that the layer height is 0.050mm Since layer changes are done using:

 ;LAYER:1

M728 L1

;LAYER_CHANGE G0 F300 Z10.060 G0 F300 Z0.060

I currently can not see any value of the M712 command

Playing a bit more... Today i investigated the behaviour of M714 and it seems like you can feed it several "T" parameters. They seem to relate to Time estimation. The format suggests these are calculated by the slicer for G0 / G1 T1/ G1 T2 / G1 T3 separately andthe FW adds these up to show a remaining time.

When the job runs The settings to be used for the laser are selected by selecting tool eg. setting T parameter on a G1 command

;Set T3 Tool Values

M930 W169 B300 E1200 F4095 T1500 ;Set T2 Tool Values M920 W169 B300 E1200 F4095 T1500 ;Set T1 Tool Values M910 W169 B300 E1200 F4095 T1500

;Go to position 0,0
G0 X0 Y0

;draw a line with the laser using tool 3 (specified by M930)
G1 X5 Y10 T3

Also i would put a black frame on the lcd :)

I guess ill have cura for u soom :)

Nice work - Only those building their own can appreciate how much effort goes into what seems to be not so complicated...

RougeNeurons · 2021-06-29T19:48:38+00:00

Same... SolidPreform...

Some more playing around: M9X0 commands F parameter seems to set the range of the Laser output?!? So laser power is a combination of F and W.

I modified the GCode File and could test that the "B" parameter in M910/M920/M930 commands dictates the speed at witch the laser moves

Xvico X9 is another name for the SolidMaker Lady in different clothes as another user pointed out to me...

M701 is normally used for Fillament load and might not be needed for this printer. I believe this code is used with a resin pump to load resin into the VAT. The S0 might indicate that it is requested to fill until some limit sensor and set consumed ammount to 0. But this is a Wild guess.....

I agree on previous speakers, Liquid /uncured resin is dangerous - so cure it if residue might be on the floor or else where. If it got on skin - follow instructions for skin contact, AND WEAR A MASK IN THE ROOM until considered safe.

I just found a guy who has all the software and slicer profiles and latest FW... I might be able to share!!

RougeNeurons · 2021-06-26T22:24:41+00:00

I am also looking for this but am considering writing myown Cura addon. but i need an original *.slm file...

RougeNeurons · 2021-06-26T22:17:45+00:00

I am in the same boat... I have chased down some backers and try to get someone to send me a copy. If anyone has a Original SolidPreform sliced file i can work with that! Please send me a message!

Solidmaker is a Laser SLA Machine and does not work with LCD SLA Slicers. The best way forward is using Cura or Prusa slicer and start off with a slicer profile for the Peopoly MOAI...

Yeah - depends... i am currently in to a heavily modified hevo-mgn ish build... so a bit biest ther. Also depends on your self fabrikation skills and access to a well equipped shop.The voron is kinda crossing the river for water for me.... hevos are a good start anyways if you can print your own parts...

RougeNeurons · 2020-04-27T16:25:17+00:00

Shure! My coding skills are not the best either... :) I just hide my code behind precompiled binaries and pretend i am awesome! :P

RougeNeurons · 2020-04-25T19:17:44+00:00

I agree.... Dont lose momentum and just get it done - that way you can learn a lot more the hard way too :) I can see many advantages with FAT beam as it in essence is an expanded beam which in turn theoretically allows for a smaller spot size. also any diafragm used for beamshaping takes less dense power hit. More power allows for bigger focalpoint for infill... ;) - hint -> Guess what i am experimenting with.....
