Disable auto reset on UM2+


Recommended Posts

Posted · Disable auto reset on UM2+

Hi folks,

 

I'm looking to disable the auto reset that happens when you open the serial port on my UM2+.

 

On the other printers I've got it was a simple case of removing the capacitor on the DTR line of the FTDI chip and then I can send commands to the printer and read back the status while printing from an SD card.

 

Is there a similar capacitor on the UM2+ that can be removed?

 

Cheers

 

Jamie

Yes, if I start a print from the SD card then during the print I open the comm port to send a M27 command for example, the printer resets.  I would like to open the comm port during a print to send commands without the printer resetting.

        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.
