Getting Started

Вы собрали всю электронику и все светодиоды засветились. Вы собрали ваш набор/Закончили свою собственную конструкцию. Вы установили всю электронику в полностью готовую механику и соединили проводами электронику с контроллером в соответствии со схемами.

Теперь необходимо его включить и проверить.

ВАЖНО: Держите вашу кнопку на "Аварийном выключателе" - речь идет о выключателе с помощью которого можно быстро и легко полностью обесточить ваш RepRap. ЕСЛИ ЧТО-ТО ПОШЛО НЕ ТАК - воспользуйтесь "Аварийным выключателем". Сначала отключаем и только потом ищем, что не так.

ШАГ 1: Сделайте "предполетную проверку". Осмотрите все соединения и механизмы вашего RepRap, ищите любые несоответствия или поломки. Проверьте электронику, ищите пропущенные провода и неправильные соединения. Подвигайте оси X и Y руками, проверьте ось Z. Проверьте, что концевики установлены и настроены.

Turn the host PC on and plug in the Arduino. Upload the SNAP or GCode firmware. (Shut down the arduino software before starting the host software)

Turn on the RepRap.

The LEDs should come on. You might get a 'click' as the steppers power up and move slightly. Nothing else should move.

Load up the host software. Click on the xyz tab.

Jog the X axis 1mm. It should move a very short distance. Jog it back 1mm.

Jog the Y axis 1mm back and forth.

Check that your extruder head is *well* off the platform. Jog the Z axis 1mm up and down.

Assuming all has gone well: if not, stop, diagnose the problem (check leads, mechanics, voltages), repeat test until working

Repeat X,Y and Z tests with 10mm or 20mm steps. Don't worry if it moves a bit more than 10mm, that config comes later.

Be careful with the Z axis - don't run it into the extruder (too far up) or into the bottom (too far down). Check the belt/chain is smooth and works properly.

Check your Z Axis endstop. make sure the distance between your flag and endstop is LESS than the distance between your extruder nozzle and your platform. Once you press HOME, the platform will move up until the endstop is triggered. If your extruder is in the way, it might be broken off or damaged.


If the endstop fails, or the flag misses the gap in the endstop, you have to turn the power off before it crashes into the end and makes horrible grinding noises.

  • Test 1 - direction. Carefully press X-axis HOME button keeping your hand on the Emergency stop. Note the direction, and POWER OFF. Hopefully, your extruder head moved towards the endstop. If your head moves away from the endstop, turn the power off, edit the arduino settings for x-axis direction, and re-upload. Re-test.
  • Test 2 - Endstop. Carefully press X-axis HOME button keeping your hand on the Emergency stop, and block the endstop using a screwdriver/bit of card/something. The axis should stop immediately. If not, POWER OFF and find out why.
  • Test 3 - Turn the POWER OFF and move the x-axis by hand to check the flag lines up with, and goes into, the endstop. (If you leave the power on, the stepper motor stops you moving the axis)
  • Test 4 - HOME. Press X-axis HOME button keeping your hand on the Emergency stop, and watch the axis move to the endstop and stop.

If your head moved to the end and stopped - great!

Repeat for the Y axis, and then *Carefully* for the Z-Axis. There's more to go wrong with the z-axis, several different belts/chains/screwthreads, so be careful.

You should now have a working cartesian robot.
