thomashald 0 Posted May 22, 2015 in Firmware and SD card I have two problems which are mean at the moment I cannot print anything. The first problem is that when I put in my SD card and go to select a file the printer knows there is the SD card in there but it doesn't show any files or any options except the top title of SD Card and the lower border line, I then have to remove it to make the printer see that there is no SD card and I can return to the main menu. Any ideas? The second problem is that when I connect my printer to my laptop by the cable Cura doesn't recognise that its connected and so won't install the default firmware. My printer is on version - 14.07.0. Any help? Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IRobertI 428 Posted May 23, 2015 in Firmware and SD card (edited) Have you tried copying the files off of the card, formatting it, putting the files back and then trying again? That's what I'd do anyway, just to make sure something isn't borked with the filesystem on the card. For the second problem I would go into "Machine->Machine Settings" and manually setting the correct serial port. You can find which port the machine is using in the Device manager on windows under the ports section. Edited May 23, 2015 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thomashald 0 Posted May 23, 2015 in Firmware and SD card Thanks I reformatted the SD card and tested firstly with one file and then with all files and it didn't work with all the files so a file may have been corrupted. Im only able to set it to AUTO? Is there anyway of changing that? Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IRobertI 428 Posted May 23, 2015 in Firmware and SD card Strange. Have you installed the drivers (cura gives you that option during installation)? If you check in the device manager do you see something related to Arduino under the "Ports" group? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thomashald 0 Posted May 24, 2015 in Firmware and SD card No I assumed it wasn't meant to be there and so I didn't install it, should I install it then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IRobertI 428 Posted May 24, 2015 in Firmware and SD card Yes, you need to have the drivers installed for it to work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JezThomson 0 Posted November 11, 2015 in Firmware and SD card My Ultimaker Original+ has decided to tell me I have No SD Card. The info screen shows Card Inserted - but then when I open the main screen - No SD card - I have tried re-formatting the card and then tried several different single GCode files - no joy. Could this be a firmware or hardware issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
