Original+ MINTEMP Error on first setup

Posted · Original+ MINTEMP Error on first setup

Finished assembling the Original+ kit. Beautiful instructions, amazing craftsmanship on the unit itself. The *only* problem is that it doesn't work.

The unit passes the Cura setup test, including temp sense.

On my first print attempt, the head starts heating up, and when it gets to about 190/220, the unit throws a MINTEMP error and shuts down the heater.

I wiggled the wires. Reseated the plugs and wires for fan, PT100, Heater, heated pcb for the build plate. Power cycled both myself and the machine.

Every forum post I read tells a different MINTEMP story. From firmware to EMI, to pinched cables.

One thing of note, which might not be a thing, is that I've never heard the fan work. But, since the unit's never gotten hotter than 190, probably there's no need for a fan just yet.

I have the Ultimaker Original+ It's 30 hours old.

Thanks!

Will

        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.
