startup issue with S3d gcode (Edit: appears to actually be random hanging)
startup issue with S3d gcode (Edit: appears to actually be random hanging)
I am not sure if it an issue with my settings in s3d or my printer, but both nozzles and the build plate have been at temperature for several minutes, but the printer isn't doing anything. I am still getting used to S3d so it could just be my settings. anyone have any suggestions?

Re: startup issue with S3d gcode
Update, I tried pausing and resuming the print and that got it running, I am not sure what the issue was.
Re: startup issue with S3d gcode
ok, this appears to be a more complex issue, because the printer just "hung" in the middle of the print. anyone else use S3d for slicing and have any suggestions?
Re: startup issue with S3d gcode (Edit: appears to actually be random hanging)
I realized that it would probably be helpful to upload the gcode, so here it is.

here is my old start-up G-code listed in the "scripts" tab under "Starting script"
just make sure that the "M92 E140:140 M500" line is set to the e-steps your extruder uses, just replace the "140" with the extruder steps for yours. I think I got this start up from TrHuster.

thanks, but it isn't just an issue with startup, during the print there were several more times where the printer just stopped printing, and the print head just sat there until I paused the print and re-started it
Re: startup issue with S3d gcode (Edit: appears to actually be random hanging)
Are you running the printer from S3D (printer plugged into the computer - is this possible with an N2?), or uploading the G-Code and printing from the touch screen? I use Ideamaker to upload my S3D files to the printer and haven't had an issue.
If you are printing from USB or SD memory, it might be worth trying a different SD card or USB drive. Could be a read issue.
I have attached an FFF file from one of my recent prints. This was an ABS print regardless of what the material says in the profile. I ignore all that stuff and just set temps and speeds.

I am taking the gcode from S3D and opening it with Ideamaker and then uploading it directly to the printer, I will check your file in the morning.
Re: startup issue with S3d gcode (Edit: appears to actually be random hanging)
My first attempt to run my N2+ from S3D using the S3D N2+ profile did not work. I don't recall the issue, but I don't think it started printing, same as you saw. I got an FFF from another user here and have made a few of my own changes to it. I've had no issues since.
Re: startup issue with S3d gcode (Edit: appears to actually be random hanging)
also check the "advanced" tab make sure the "stop printing at height" tab is not checked. also throw the G-code on a usb and run it directly from printer and see if you have same problem.

you printed ABS at 210 with a 65 degree buildplate? that sounds more like a PLA profile...

Re: startup issue with S3d gcode (Edit: appears to actually be random hanging)
It seems due to code M105. It should be related to Layer Change function. Please check Layer Change code and remove all the M105 and test one more time.

I think I found it, I had accidentally checked a box in the temperature tab to relay the temperature of one of the nozzles at layer change, but since the printer cannot connect directly to S3d that failed. Running a test in a few minutes.
Re: startup issue with S3d gcode (Edit: appears to actually be random hanging)
nope, still randomly stopping for no apparent reason. I have no custom layer change script.
Edit: I actually screwed up unchecking that box (still getting used to S3d) it seems to be working now, it was just an issue with the temperature settings.

Then I'm not sure what S3D exported. Those aren't even my go-to temps for PLA.

I'm not sure the reason why, but in your gcode file I did see some M105 codes. With all M105 codes removed, the print completed without problem on our machine.
Attached one we remove the M105 for you as reference.

thanks, but I found the issue, it was related to S3d assuming that it would be connected to the printer and asking for the temperature of the nozzle between layers.
Re: startup issue with S3d gcode (Edit: appears to actually be random hanging)
as best I can tell, because the raisetouch sent the M105 command. It got lost. M105 is going off all the time anyways. the raisetouch is streaming the gcode to the motion controller. the motion controller is sending feedback via the ok line to let the printer know where it is. since the printer has no way to tell that m105 from any other M105 that is already coming.
This is just my speculation. But there is no need to make the raisetouch detect this.
