Well, like I said it's been working and then all of a sudden did not. I received it on Wednesday last week. I looked through manuals and did some research online. I figured the next best thing was to ask people directly. I'm sure I COULD find the answer but then it becomes a question of which is the most efficient route? Search through countless pages of manuals looking for something that I don't even know I'm looking for or ask the kind people of MakerGear Forum. Hopefully I have not frazzled anyone
