Posted · About E-step default value and its change

Dear all,

I'm using a printer Wasp mod. Delta 2040 equipped with clay extruder. Also, Marlin firmware.

As reported in the firmware, the default values for X,Y,Z,E axes are:

* D e f a u l t A x i s S t e p s P e r U n i t ( s t e p s / m m ) * O v e r r i d e w i t h M 9 2 * X , Y , Z , E 0 [ , E 1 [ , E 2 [ , E 3 ] ] ] * /

#define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER_UNIT { 80, 80, 4000, 500 }

my questions are below: 7

1. The value 500 is on mm/min. if so, the acutal value should be 8.33 step/mm of filament in a time of 1 s.

2. If I leave on CURA software an -Estep=0 this means that i'm using the default value of the firmware that is 4000 ?

2. What's happen if i change the E-step value on CURA software for instance at +0400 ?

Can you help to explain me exactly how change the E-step when I modify it on CURA software ?

Thanks

        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.
