Posted · Ultimaker UM2+ freezing/locking up

Just purchased a brand new UM2+. Arrived Tuesday and I am setting it up today.

 

I unpacked, removed the cable tie, switched on the unit and began to run through the "first use" guided sequence. As I scrolled the wheel to raise the bed for the first 1mm to nozzle adjustment, the firmware froze and became unresponsive. Button press did not work and scrolling did not work. So I restarted the unit and all went OK.

 

Next I had issues with printing directly via USB connection from Cura 3.4.0. Therefore I updated the firmware to _3.3.0 and Cura to 3.4.1.

 

While scrolling through the menu it again froze and needed a restart. I have since reset the unit to factory settings and had to run through the setup sequence again. So far no locking up, however I am concerned that it has now frozen twice.

 

Is this just a normal thing for the UM2+ machines?

        Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        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.
