correct baud rate is 250000

In addition you have to find the correct COM port of course.

 

But USB cables highly differ in quality. There are even cables "for charging only". So  - if you have the choice - try a different cable first. Preferable one with ferrite cores.

    Hi Simon,

     

    You may have a problem with the USB to Serial conversion, to fix this it is better to use Arduino.

    Here is some picture s of how to do it:

     

    When setting up Arduino select card type first. Select tools, then card type.

    Next, tools again and then Port. Here it's show only Com 1.

    Now you connect your printer and you should get this -but maybe another com port number.

    The above see your printer, but it is not connected.

     

    But when you select the printer it will connect, shown like this.

    This example is with my UM2 ext.

    You should be able to use this one..

     

    When you see it connect, then exit Arduino and try Pronterface.

     

    Good luck.

     

    Thanks

    Use Cura 15.04.5 like this.

    Just connect your printer and install default firmware.

     

    Thanks

      • 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.
