    The full step magic number for the UM2/Um3/S3/S5 I believe is 0.04mm.  There is 8 substeps so you can go finer accuracy than this but 0.04 is a good number to use for the "magic number".

    If I want to print on an S5 with AA 0.8 and BB 0.4 what would be a good layer height for that?

    Have you checked your machine is perfectly grounded ? No issues with your mains ground ?

     

    Have you checked and calibrated the lift switch ?

     

    Are your print cores perfectly seated when loaded into the printhead ?

     

    If everything else is OK, PCB in the printhead might be faulty or the sensor board.

    Machine is grounded, lift switch is working perfectly, print cores are correctly seated. Would running the leveling sensor diagnostic test show whether the PCB is functional?

  3. Hi everyone, I am having an issue with extrusion on my S5. Currently have AA 0.4 with PLA and BB 0.4 PVA. I either have the issue that the material is practically spilling out from one print core when the other head is printing. Also, then when the head switches it to print it gets rid of the blob  on the nozzle and then there is virtually no extrusion (some small dots now and again but barely anything). Any suggestions?

    Maybe you have another machine too close making EMI ?

     

    Or it's the PCB ...

     

    PCB looks all good and no other machines nearby. 

    I did the following-

    -manually leveled multiple times

    -ran the leveling sensor test multiple times

    -disconnected the front fan (this allowed it to run but only once)

    -did a factory reset in which I ended up having to change the print heads

    -seemed to work after I changed the heads but now I am having the issue that print core 2 touches the plate and then when print head 1 tries it never touches it. There is no material on the nozzle so I am pretty lost as to what to try next.

    Is the print core 1 touches the build plate when doing the active bed leveling ?

    If not, maybe a PCB issue. The one in the printhead.

    It does sometimes, other times it just comes very close. 

    I had run a diagnostic on the leveling sensors and it came back fine but ran  it again today and got the error 'There is interference on the capacitive sensor'. Any ideas how to fix this?
