ulticontroller – Sleep mode

Hey,

So i'm at a faire for the weekend . I have been printing for a few hours .

Every few prints the controller stops the machine just before it prints the object and displays "sleep" on the ulticontroller display.

It's becoming a pain, so I was wondering what causes it?

Cheers

Kym

    "Sleep" is most likely the result of a MINTEMP or MAXTEMP error, this error does not display correctly on the display yet, and thus is shown as a Sleep (or dwell in older versions)

    Check your temperature sensor connections, this is usually the problem, they need to be very tight.

    Yep, that in one of the few screws I have never tightened up.

    Thanks, I have a whole other day of printing bottle openers and i'm key chain hangers.

    Cheers

        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
