UM2+ with Octopi: Rear Fan Issue

After just a couple of attempts, I’ve managed to bring my UM2+ to work with OctoPrint on a Raspberry Pi.

Everything works well: file transfer, printing, camera, remote controlling of the process…

However, one thing I can’t bring to function: REAR FAN!

The two fans directed downwards work properly, but the rear fan remains still through the whole printing procedure.

Does anyone have the same issue and – even more importantly – a solution for that?

    And does it work when you print from the sd card?

    I should normally come on when the nozzle reaches 40°c

     

    Yes, it does work when I print from the SD. That's why I believe it's an Octopi issue...

    Problem "solved"!

    Actually it disappeared.

    After one week I decided to connect the OctoPi to my UM2+ again and now it works!?

    I did not change ANYTHING...

    IT-god works in mysterious ways...

      • 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.
