Hi guys,

 

I have a UM2 and bought the UM2+ upgrade kit. 

 

I have installed the kit but am unable to install the new firmware. When plugging in the board I get USB device not recognized error. 

 

I have tried everything in my power to communicate with the board including trying to use the ICSP headers to get a response from the MEGA 2560 and Atmel chips but to no avail.

 

I'm now looking for a replacement for my 2.1.4 board. Is there a new version of this board that may fit better or should I source a 2.1.4 replacement.

 

I'm only able to find 3rd party boards like these: https://www.aliexpress.com/i/32796588854.html

 

Does anyone have any experience with these or would recommend a better board?

 

Thanks

    not sure what the issue is with your original board, but note that the replacement board from a**express.com has those pesky screw terminal instead of the much safer spring loaded ones on the original board.

      • 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.
