Hi,

 

There are two settings, prime_tower_position_x and prime_tower_position_y, I had assumed they would be the center point of the tower however I cant really work out how they relate to the circle that makes up the tower.

This is the base of the prime tower and the X Y position of it is the highlighted yellow area.  Its a big prime tower as I have 4 filaments.  The X kinda matches up with the outside of the brim of the tower but the Y doesn't really.

 

I'm getting to the center with trial and error at the moment but if there are any ideas how its calculated it would be appreciated or if it were the center point in a future update even better. 

 

Cheers

Stot

      • 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.
