Topic: Extruder Temp Drops
This is about a Creality Ender, not a 'Doodle, sorry but their forum is a maze... I've had the 3Pro for ~18mo and have been very unhappy with it from the beginning. I got it cause my old Solidoodle which I printed with for over 7 years finally gave up the ghost. Anyway as a result of that, I use Repetier Host software including Slic3r, just can't warm up to Cura. I've finally gotten a few descent prints, and today I went for another, but a completely new problem has surfaced. Had the temps set to 191/60 in both the printer and Repetier. As long as I let the printer idle, the temps stay, as soon as I start to print the temp quickly starts to drop, The printer screen still says 191, Repetier drops til it hits ~184 then crashes the machine with a 'mintemp' error. I don't know where to look. No changes have been made to the machine or software.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Sorry for being so long winded.
Thanx - Ski
PS Still looking for someone to help with an SKR V1.3 board and Arduino - for the Doodle, or a reasonably cheap Printerboard.
