Just fitted a E3D hotend and something i have done now means the hotend fans run permanently.

Wire the two hotend fans into into the connector that use to run the one 50mm fan and wired the small E3D fan into my DIY heated bed.

Even with the heated bed turned off the fans still run, so not caused by that.

The only think i have moved are the wires for the hotend as i had to unthread them through the old hotend mount.

I did manage to short the two wires whilst checking the voltage to the hotend fans!!

Any thoughts ?

    Cheers Richardphat

    I have just stripped the whole board and compared it to a board i have with a dodgy switch and i am getting difference resistance readings, which make me realise as you say i 'fried the transitor' bugger.

    Thanks for the info.

      • 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.
