Default Printing Speed

Post by CCRN » Tue Nov 15, 2016 9:42 pm

I am curious what the Default Printing Speed in S3D is translated to in Gcode. The only reference I see is a commented field

Code: Select all

;   defaultSpeed,3600
Does the printer use these commented fields to configure or is the default print speed in different code?

Thanks,
Jerold

GCode is in millimeters-per-minute (a carryover from milling machines). It's the "F" number you see after G0 / G1 lines.
