1.5.7 Board LED output max current


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited) · 1.5.7 Board LED output max current

Hi all & a happy new year :)

I planned to use the LED output of the 1.5.7 board for 3 short LED stripes and can't find a value for the max current allowed. Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,

Joerg

    Sorry I missed the original topic:

    Uhm, I wouldn't know, except that leds don't really use that much power so therefor it shouldn't be a problem. I'm running 3 IKEA dioder strips of that port.

    Thanks for your reply. I am running three short LED stripes on that port also.

    But what I wanted was 'hard facts & numbers' ;)in order to don't damage the board on the long-term.

    It seems that it is some kind of secret, so we will never know it exactly ;)

    I also would like to know this. My original lights have dimmed and yellowed significantly over the years and I bought a 24V LED strip here:

    https://www.wholesaleledlights.co.uk/1m-24v-single-colour-led-strip-lights-60-x-5050smd-14-4w.html

    Current draw should be max 600mA for the 1m strip. I hope this will be fine, but interested to know the maximum before assuming.

    Any responses would be appreciated.

    Kind regards,

    Greg

    It is a straight connection to the 19v input, so no practical limit.

      • 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.
