Hello,
So I am having a bit of trouble. Just got my MakerGear M2 Rev. E yesterday went through the initial setup, leveling the bed, etc.. I got to the point where it starts the tinything.g print and just about a minute in I get a connection timeout and the print stops and it starts to cool down.
The filament is feeding fine.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Connection Timeout
Re: Connection Timeout
Are you using a Mac or a PC with USB connection? (Might try using the SD card.....I'm not familiar with Macs and how they work with the machine. Sounds like a connection problem, or maybe the computer doesn't have enough juice to run the program.)
Re: Connection Timeout
If you're running Windows 10, it appears to have driver issues: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=3254
Try an SD card print to test if it works any better. Try installing this driver to see if it works any better: http://reprap.org/wiki/Rambo#USB_Driver

Re: Connection Timeout
Please try with the latest version of the app from here (labeled "experimental", but quite stable in all of my testing thus far): http://www.makergear.com/pages/quickstart-app .
When you were trying that print, did you have the bed and hotend already heated up from the previous steps?

Re: Connection Timeout
Sorry about the lag in responding I have been swamped.
I am using a PC with Windows 10, print from the SD card. When running Simplify 3D there are no time out issues.
I was trying to get the bed and hotend heated up when the connection time out occurred. When trying to level the bed had to go quickly between steps or connection time out would take place.
Will give the experimental app a shot.
