			<description><![CDATA[<p>Dear Carl!</p><p>Thanks for your answer but it appears that the DaVinci main board does not have digital pots, see here: <a href="https://github.com/luc-github/Repetier-Firmware-0.92/issues/76">https://github.com/luc-github/Repetier- … /issues/76</a>. I solved it by using the autospeed function in Slic3r that keeps the extruded volume constant and adjusts the speeds accordingly. By avoiding volumetric peaks I have no more clicking at low temps - works great now!</p>]]></description>

There is no other way to do it. You will need to dig through the firmware and find where those vslues are. They will not be in thr normal tabs.</p>]]></description>
