UM S5 active levelling

Hi all,

 is there a way to start the active levelling on the S5? (Other than starting a print job and the abort it)?

I haven't found it in the menu ... (I would like to have it though, to check a new manual levelling.

 

In the troubleshooting section of the UM website it says ... " Restart the active leveling process. " and " After this, you can start the active leveling again." - But I don't know how .

Thanks - Yvonne

    I did not find a way to start it manually, so either I overlooked it or it is not available through the menu.

     

    But why do you need it? I find that leveling in general is seldomly needed (except if you remove the glass plate after every print).

    Yes  ...

     

    you're probably right and I only miss it much,beacuse it was there before .

     

    I use it a lot when I train new users on the UM and let the perform a manual levelling, to check afterwards.

     

    But in real life - you re right - its not so often needed - ?

     

    Nevertheless, thanks for looking it up !

      • 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.
