Hi everyone!

Since I got my UMO+ the stepper motors get really hot when they're working (I can't touch them for more than a second without burning). Two weeks ago my heated bed sensor died, and when I disassembled the board cover I saw that the the board is brownish (burnt) around the X,Y,Z and E1. On the picture you may not appreciate them very well, I just didn't want to photoshop the picture to give a wrong impression.

Is this normal or is there any risk something fails? I checked everything, but as it's the same board as the UM2, the power sent to the stepper motors can't be easily changed.

    Btw the power sent to the motor it's very easy to change it by Gcode on UMO+/UM2 with

     

    M907 X(NUMBER) Y1(NUMBER) Z(NUMBER) E(NUMBER)

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        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.
