Firmware Updates For Wanhao Wanhao is a popular chinese manufacturer that presents many interesting models in their product line. Bondtech has available some Wanhao upgrades based on our Bondtech Mini Geared (BMG) extruder, to which we add value by increasing the reliability and performance extrusion of the units. Marlin Firmware Open Source 3D Printer Driver. First created in 2011 for RepRap and Ultimaker by Erik van der Zalm et. Al., today Marlin drives most of the world's 3D printers. Reliable and precise, Marlin delivers outstanding print quality while keeping you in full control of the process. Page 40: Update The Firmware Insert the USB stick in the USB port on the Ultimaker S5. Go to Preferences g Maintenance g Update firmware. The Ultimaker S5 will detect it if there are firmware files on the USB stick. If files are detected, you can select one to start a firmware update. Page 41: Material Handling And Storage. Periodically, a new version of the Ultimaker S3 firmware is released. To ensure that your Ultimaker S3 has the latest features, we recommend keeping the firmware updated. This can be performed on the Ultimaker S3 when connected to a network or via USB. Tip: For the latest release notes, click here.

Gyroid infill

New infill pattern with enhanced strength properties. Gyroid infill is one of the strongest infill types for a given weight, has isotropic properties, and prints relatively fast with reduced material use and a fully connected part interior. Note: Slicing time can increase up to 40 seconds or more, depending on the model. Contributed by smartavionics.

Support brim

New setting that integrates the first layer of support material with the brim's geometry. This significantly improves adhesion when printing with support material. Contributed by BagelOrb.

Cooling fan number

It is now possible to specify the cooling fan to use if your printer has multiple fans. This is implemented under Machine settings in the Extruder tab. Contributed by smartavionics.

Settings refactor

The CuraEngine has been refactored to create a more testable, future-proof way of storing and representing settings. This makes slicing faster, and future development easier.

Print core CC 0.6

The new print core CC 0.6 is selectable when the Ultimaker S5 profile is active. This print core is optimized for use with abrasive materials and composites.

File name and layer display

Added M117 commands to GCODE to give real-time information about the print job file name and layer number shown on the printer's display when printing via USB. Contributed by adecastilho. Western digital 3tb format utility.

Firmware checker/Ultimaker S5

The update checker code has been improved and tested for more reliable firmware update notifications in Ultimaker Cura. The Ultimaker S5 is now included.

Fullscreen mode shortcuts

Fullscreen mode can be toggled using the View menu or with the keyboard shortcuts: Command + Control + F (macOS), or F11 (Windows and Linux). Contributed by KangDroid.

Ultimaker 2+ Firmware

Configuration error message

In previous versions, Ultimaker Cura would display an error dialog explaining when something happened to user configuration files, including the option to reset to factory defaults. This would not warn about losing the current printer and print profile settings, so this information has been added.

Rename Toolbox to Marketplace

The entry points to the Toolbox are now renamed to Marketplace.

Materials in the Marketplace

A new tab has been added to the Marketplace that includes downloadable material profiles, to quickly and easily prepare models for a range of third-party materials.

New third-party definitions

New profiles added for Anycube 4MAx and Tizyx K25. Contributed by jscurtu and ValentinPitre respectively.

Improved definitions for Ender-3

The Ender-3 build plate size has been adjusted to the correct size of 235 x 235 mm, corrected the start-up sequence, and the printhead position has been adjusted when prints are purged or completed. Contributed by stelgenhof.

Add mesh names to slicing message

Added comment generation to indicate which mesh the GCODE after this comment is constructing. Contributed by paukstelis.

Bug fixes

  • The active material is highlighted in Ultimaker Cura's material manager list. This behavior is now consistent with the profile and machine manager.
  • The option to use 1.75 mm diameter filament with third-party 3D printers is now fixed and does not revert back to 2.85 mm. This fix also applies the appropriate a Z-axis speed change for 1.75 mm filament printers. Contributed by kaleidoscopeit.
  • A fix was created to handle OSX version 10.10, but due to the Qt upgrade, users with older versions won't be able to run Ultimaker Cura on their system without a system update. This applies to OSX version 10.09 and 10.08.
  • Fixed a memory leak when leaving the 'Monitor' page open.
  • Added performance improvements to the PolygonConnector to efficiently connect polygons that are close to each other. This also reduces the chances of the print head collide with previously printed things. Contributed by BagelOrb.
  • Fixed a bug where the GCODE reader didn't show retractions.
  • Changes the USBPrinting update thread to prevent flooding the printer with M105 temperature update requests. Contributed by fieldOfView.
  • Fix the behavior of the 'manage visible settings' button, when pressing the 'cog' icon of a particular category. Contributed by fieldOfView.
  • Add a new post processing script that pauses the print at a certain height that works with RepRap printers. Contributed by Kriechi.
  • Fix updates to the print monitor temperatures while preheating. Contributed by fieldOfView.
  • Fixed a bug where material cost is not shown unless weight is changed.
  • Fixed bugs crashing the CuraEngine when TreeSupport is enabled.
  • Fixed a bug where Ultimaker Cura would upload the wrong firmware after switching printers in the UI.
  • Fixed a bug where the layer view was missing if the first layer was empty.
  • Fixed a bug where erroneous combing movements were taking place.
  • Fixed a bug where the initial layer temperature is set correctly for the first object but then never again.
  • Fixed a bug where clicking the fx icon didn't respond.

About bUltimaker

bUltimaker helps you generate a tailored firmware for your Ultimaker Original/Original+ printer.
The main objective is to provide a firmware as close as possible to the official firmware distributed by Ultimaker, the only differences being the selected features.
Cara mendownload gom player. The primary focus is on stability and compatibility with the official Ultimaker firmware.

Experimental branch

You are using the experimental branches of the builder and the firmware.

Basic configuration

Selecting a printer here will generate a default Ultimaker Firmware for this printer (as distributed with Cura)

Printer selectionNotes
  • Selecting a printer will (re-)set all fields in the next sections to their default value
  • An '{{profiles[1].label}}' and an '{{profiles[2].label}}' are different printers -- they do not have the same motherboard!
  • The '{{profiles[1].label}}' selection is for the official Ultimaker heated bed kit only. For a self-built heated bed, select '{{profiles[0].label}}' and specify your heated bed sensor type in the Expert section.

Differences from the official Ultimaker firmware

Although this firmware is very close to the official Ultimaker firmware, there are a few differences even if you do not select any option:

  • [UMO+] Control LED brightness from the controller, can be saved in EEPROM;
  • [UMO+] Stepper motor current adjustable from the controller, saved in EEPROM;
  • [UMO/UMO+] Better display of special characters (umluats, ..) in SD-card file names (within the limits of what the display can do!);
  • [UMO/UMO+] Bug fixes -- see Readme and Commits log on Github for details!

Extra configuration

Changing something in this section will generate alternative Ultimaker Firmware for your {{umSelect.label}} (as distributed with Cura)

Dual extrusion

This is for the experimental dual extrusion kit as sold by Ultimaker

Baud rate

115200 is provided for historical reasons, use only if your host software cannot do 250000.

Advanced configuration

About the Advanced section

Changing something in this section will generate a Custom Firmware.
This firmware may not run on your {{umSelect.label}} if you select a wrong hardware component!

Features are grouped by topic of interrest (Controller, Fans, ..) and typically have an information label:

  • New feature in this release.
  • Firmware-only enhancement.
    Changing firmware-only settings won't fundamentally break anything, feel free to make changes and customize the firmware to suit your needs.
  • Feature linked to hardware component(s).
    These setting support third party hardware or custom changes (full graphic controller, GT2 pulleys, direct drive, ..). Only enable these features if you have the corresponding hardware in place!
  • Do not try this feature if you do not understand what it is about!
  • Feature of the Experimental branch.
    New feature, not widely tested. May be unstable.
  • Work in progress.
    Feature under active development, stay away from it!
Fan percentage Display fan percentage

Display the fan percentage at the start of the status line. Selecting this will truncate any message on the status line to 14 characters.

Controller beep sound

Whatever you prefer! The Marlin beep sound is higher and shorter than the Ulticontroller default one. Undecided? Look at this short video!

Reverse encoder

Some displays have the rotary knob inverted. Use this option to get it right.

Action:command Implement //action:command protocol.

If you are using OctoPrint or Pronterface it will allows you to Pause/Resume prints from your controller. See here for more information.

Display timeout

Delay before returning to status page when idle in menus

Maximum temperature for the first hot-end

Note that this is the absolute maximum. The highest selectable temperature is 15°C lower (So 260°C by default)

= 300'>

Warning!

Printing at high temperatures requires special hot-end; stock Ultimaker hot-end will be damaged when printing too hot. Roblox without login and sign up.

Ultimaker 3 Firmware

Maximum temperature for the second hot-end = 300'>
Ultimaker Firmware Update

Warning!

Printing at high temperatures requires special hot-end; stock Ultimaker hot-end will be damaged when printing too hot.

Temperature control for the heated bed
Temperature tweaks Enable temperature tweaks

This feature allows you to override or tweak hot-end and bed temperatures as well as fan speed.
So you can print a GCode file with different temperature or fan settings

Fan kickstart

Activate the fan kickstart option. From Marlin sources: when first starting the main fan, run it at full speed for the given number of milliseconds. This gets the fan spinning reliably before setting a PWM value.

Fan minimum PWM

Defines the minimal speed for the main fan, run in PWM mode. This is a PWM value (0-255), not a percentage!

Fan PWM Fast PWM

Original Ultimaker firmware is using Fast PWM to control the fan. In some cases high PWM frequencies interfere with the temperature sensor, in particular with a thermocouple. If your get erratic temperatures at low fan speed, try disabling option.

Hot-end fan

If your UMO+ has an Ultiboard 2.1.4 or newer, the hot-end fan is driven by the hot-end temperature.
Check the following option if you have retrofitted a fan on your hot-end.

Auto fan driven by the second hot-end (You probably need this if you have a dual hot-end setup).
Motors

Motor direction might need adjustment in direct drive configuration.
(Note that inverted X and Z axis is the default configuration on Ultimaker Original!)

Invert Y axis direction
Invert first Extruder (0) direction
Pulleys

If you upgrade the standard MXM pulleys by GT2 ones, don't forget to select this, as they do not have the same diameter!

Filament runout sensor Filament runout sensor

Enable filament runout sensor. Additional hardware required! If you enable this and do not have a sensor you will not be able to print..

Invert sensor pin signal
Z stage Home switch
Normally Closed (NC) switch

Ultimaker uses Normally Open (NO) switches for the endstops. Use this option if you use a Normally Closed (NC) switch for the Z stage.

Software endstops Software endstops

With software endstops the limit switches are only used for homing. This option is required for the software bed leveling option (see below)

Software adjustable bed leveling Software bed leveling

With the software adjustable bed leveling you can adjust your bed level in the same way the Ultimaker2 does. This is only possible if you either home the Z stage at the bottom (Like the UM2 does) or you replace the top switch by a switch/sensor which allows you to home under the zero position.
More information in this video

Important: this feature is a user interface for the M206 G-code command (Offset axes).
The Z-offset value is saved in EEPROM and will remain active even when you install another firmware.
If you want to go back to a firmware without software adjustable bed leveling, reset the offset before flashing a newer firmware. Alternatively you can issue the following G-code with your new firmware:

M206 Z0 ; Reset Z-Offset
M500 ; Save to EEPROM

(Restore failsafe on the controller will also reset the offset, but then you will also loose any other parameter previously saved)

Z switch location
Z homing at the top (Default, see Software adjustable bed leveling on UMO)
Z homing at the bottom (Custom, see New Z endstop/limit location)
Z home retract

Homing hits the endstop, then retracts by this distance, before it tries to slowly bump again. If Z homing is done at the top but under zero the retract parameter must be high enough to ensure it retracts under the switch/sensor.
