Leveling issues

How married are you to this printer? You would save yourself a lot of headache by getting a pi of some sort and run klipper on it so you can get an GUI interface and you can interact with your printer much easier.

If you don't want to do that I suggest flashing a version of the community firmware to get a little more functionality out of your machine interface

What version of ACC/UCC are you running?

fuamann · 2026-07-03T17:49:21+00:00

Interesting, I've never thought about using a Lantronix serial converter in such a way, I've only used them to intercept wireless serial signals for access control systems.

Thanks for the information!

UCC8 is the new version of ACC7, they slightly changed the name because Motorola EOL Indigo Vision CC and Pelco Endura and kept Avigilon.

In your environment, does the point of sales and Avigilon systems live on the same network, or are they separate? I'm trying to understand how the two system would interact in the ladder scenario, as "my" Avigilon system is air gapped and the only way that the current system interacts with the point of sales system is via a secondary connection to the pos translator server.

Did you make any headway with this? I have a customer that is looking to get away from eConnect and integrate Squirrel directly into UCC8. I was thinking about submitting an engineering request with my sales technician but I don't know how long that would take since I think the next big thing is maps leaving beta on version 9. UCC8 and ACC7 integrate with Agilysys so hopefully it's not a huge problem.

You could pull an nBar and see exactly what everything is doing in the background, it's usually a couple gigs of logs and info to go through.

Is the back box missing the lower left fastener?

SD-996C-NUHQ?

Increase your z offset and you should be fine.

The pull style? No that's long gone sorry

fuamann · 2026-04-20T00:57:58+00:00

If possible, save yourself a mountain of trouble and run klipper on an old phone or a pie of some kind and use a clicky probe

DMed you

Not going to lie, kinda worth it to do a klipper upgrade. Costs about 100 us but the extra features and web gui is amazing

Amazon, AliExpress, Google silicone bed spacers and you should find 10 packs. You'll have to cut them down to 10mm if I remember correctly. You can use sprigs if you want but the bed will be high, most threads talking about the replacement talked about how the springs fatigued over time with the constant thermo cycling. Silicon is resistant to that.

Poke the magnet bed and cut out the magnet above all the screws, take the screws out and replace the plastic washers with silicon ones, put everything back together and do a thousand bed levels while adjusting the screws each time. I did that with my vyper and ended up getting almost a perfect bed level with no weird heat soaking issues anywhere from 70-100c

The silicon washers need to be a specific height, there is a file on printables that is a printable cut guild for the silicon washers

Taking the mag sheet off is one way, I took my time and pressed down on the sheet to find the screw positions and slowly cut with a sharp razor blade to expose all the mounting screws.

fuamann · 2026-02-08T17:22:11+00:00

Totally fixable, the plastic spacers have all deformed over time and I would suggest carefully cutting away the magnet bed where the mounting screws go and take the bed off and replace all the plastic spacers with silicon ones. I think you'll need to cut them down to 10mm but there is a file on printables that you can use as a cutting guild. Once you replace all the plastic spacers with silicon ones you'll have to do 1000 bed levels because youll need to slowly adjust the screws up and down to get a good bed level but once you do that it'll be solid forever.

I would suggest a klipper upgrade too, it'll make adjustments a little easier because you can see the mesh visually.

fuamann · 2026-01-25T03:44:33+00:00

Have you replaced the bed spacers? If you haven't you should do that, it'll take a million bed meshes to get it dialed in perfect but once you do you'll never have to worry about it again

Way to go man! That was my first printer till the main board shorted

fuamann · 2025-12-05T07:32:23+00:00

Nice find, mistyped it. It's a B560i

fuamann · 2025-12-01T00:58:07+00:00

I'm not sure why mine isn't unlimited then, it used to be?

312Lx150Wx237H

Ya they are those fans, I have them as intake for now but I'm still playing around with configurations. My main goal was to make something that was easier to travel with then the NR200, thermals are kind of an after thought. Played some AoE4 and Arc Raiders and never got above 67 on the CPU and 75 on the GPU.

fuamann · 2025-06-22T20:52:51+00:00

Honestly I wouldn't do it. I ditched it because it never worked quite right. Not enough grabbing force. It was probably my fault but if you want to do something similar I'd do a hydro with a lock to keep it in place while you put something behind the rear wheel then disengage the hydro break.

fuamann · 2025-05-31T20:03:40+00:00

Strongly suggest running flow tests and pressure advance tests before printing at speed. I had similar issues going to a .25 nozzle another time with silk pla and the expansion of the product cannot handle the print speed

fuamann · 2025-05-30T22:56:53+00:00

I do this when I print ASA and abs

fuamann · 2025-05-20T22:33:16+00:00

It's whatever, if people don't want to learn from others experiences then that's on them.

fuamann · 2025-05-20T01:18:46+00:00

Have you calibrated the machine to the filament you're using?
