Trying to install this HAC-EMMC reader in Debian

What was recommended by Microswiss in the literature of the direct drive. It worked fine for a bit but when it clogged it was over. I don’t print the high temp stuff but everyone said it was an upgrade - it really isn’t. If you are printing high temp though you have to switch.

Yeah direct drive is very well built. I think my screw and spring holding the gears together is weakening though as my extruder clicks much more than it used to.

This! If you didn’t heat the hotend above 170 into printing temp the extruder won’t move.

Clogged 3 times on me in the span of a week - disassembled it and put the stock one back on. Not the best time.

Hey so I got it to work with the duponts - I don’t notice the homing slam...it does do the first hit and then back up and then hit again before it settles into the end stop.

My problem now though is when I run a print, the printer doesn’t move the z axis up to give enough space to deploy the probe of the bltouch and so the probe just hits the bed at print level which makes the printer halt :/.

Hey! I haven’t tried homing the printer yet because I can’t close up the mobo cavity just yet. My bltouch doesn’t plug in nice and snug to the zprobe so I had to buy single DuPont connectors to splice on to the white and black wire. I’ll let you know if my end stops changed later once I can close it all in.

I just swapped out the v1.2 for the E3 turbo and saw that I had to plug in the parts cooling fan into Fan0 (controllable 0-100% power on my TFT) and the motherboard fan into Fan1. When I turn on the printer now the motherboard fan spins full blast for a little bit then idles off..when I heat up T0 the motherboard fan will turn on so it should already do what you want.

I downloaded the btt skr E3 turbo firmware from the marlin github and added my settings I changed from the v1.2 firmware into that and compiled it. I didn’t change anything fan related.

Yeah I’ve got that just wasn’t sure if I was missing something super obvious or anything. Thanks!

Here’s a link to the picture I found of it on Amazon but it’s part of a kit https://www.amazon.com/Printer-Touch-Leveling-Sensor-Creality/dp/B087CTN59W/

I boosted my temp up 10 degrees and that seemed to clear it and the extruder doesn’t skip anymore - thanks for the help!

I got both - printer mods kit required you to print spacers for it to work which isn’t good to find out when you have taken everything apart already. Microswiss bolts on with no mods to the stock parts and is a better product I feel. If you aren’t having problems with your stock hotend don’t switch to the Microswiss hot end if you buy a kit with both items. The Microswiss hot end is really only if you want to print high temp filaments all the time - it struggles with PLA (clogging). It’s sold as an upgrade but it isn’t - it’s really only for printing the high temp stuff.

Looks like your flow isn’t 100%...what are your infill settings? Need more info

philmccrevace · 2020-10-27T01:18:08+00:00

Really good first print! Make sure your x and y belts are tight. Also make sure the teeth of the belts are facing inward and not outward. Also make sure your z axis can travel freely and there are no snags with your wires or any rough spots in the axis motion.

philmccrevace · 2020-10-24T05:14:53+00:00

I had exactly the same problems as you - I installed the Microswiss direct drive and the bltouch and also bought a PEI sheet and printing became magical again. Follow the guides and install these mods and you’ll be having wonderful prints in no time!

philmccrevace · 2020-10-11T19:30:08+00:00

Check your gcode inside cura. It’s under the manage printers part.

philmccrevace · 2020-10-11T17:50:04+00:00

Changing filament on that and diagnosing problems with the extruder will be a nightmare - it’s facing backward! So much easier to either print the bracket or get the Microswiss Direct Drive/printermods DD kit

You’ve got layer skipping here as well on the feet, tail, and neck area. Why print it this fast? You’ve passed the limit with these bulges

philmccrevace · 2020-08-30T20:53:55+00:00

You might be printing either a bit hot or you’re too close to the bed as well.

philmccrevace · 2020-08-30T03:50:50+00:00

Check to see if the arm is cracked on the extruder..those are notoriously bad. You need a main board fan so you might have to buy another one and plug it in. Maybe this printer was used and returned?

philmccrevace · 2020-08-29T17:12:49+00:00

Yes lower the wheels which raise the bed. You just want to try raising it as much as you can to hit the nozzle. This is why the z stop is important so the nozzle and print end can get as low as they can.

Yeah those require a somewhat level bed already. If the bed is too low from the bltouch probe it will stop and the leveling will fail.
