UM2extended fails to start after SD card with boot directory is inserted

Posted · UM2extended fails to start after SD card with boot directory is inserted

Hello together,

after using cura3.03 to create a gcode from a model i tried to start my printer, but it completely failed to do anything. I first thought, it would be a hardware-problem (a fuse or a broken connection on the mainboard...) but then i realized, that cura created four partitions on the SD card (one of them  called "boot") and after putting out the SD card, the printer would start like usual. After formatting the SD card and storing an existing file.gcode i was able to both start the printer with inserted SD card and to print the model.

Have anybody experienced similar behaviour with his UM printer? I am curious and want to be prepared to solve such problems next time with understanding what`s going wrong.

Thank you, Klaus

        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.
