Has anyone figured out how to change the firmware settings on the new solidoodle mainboard? This is the point im at right now. My e3d is all installed just trying to figure out how to configure.

I am wondering if the Z lift needs to be increased to 2mm, actually, just because making it 1mm was what fixed this problem for me in March.  It's certainly something I can test.  Not sure why it would need to be more with the E3D, though; the Z axis calibration and bed levelling are the same as before.  Then again, no one ever figured out why I needed it in the first place.

And it seems too much coincidence that the park problem is happening at the same time...

I've moved this discussion over to here:

Are these values in firmware, the print area depth and width in RH, and the X Max and Y Max in RH all consistent with each other?

Here's my RH printer settings.  Earlier today I changed X Max and Y Max from 200 to 209 at 2n2r5's suggestion, and last night, changed Home X and Home Y to Max as suggested upthread.

Here's what's in the Configuration.h I used:

#if SOLIDOODLE_VERSION == 3
  #define X_MAX_POS 209
  #define X_MIN_POS 0
  #define Y_MAX_POS 200
  #define Y_MIN_POS 0
  #define Z_MAX_POS 200
  #define Z_MIN_POS 0

// The position of the homing switches
  #define MANUAL_HOME_POSITIONS  // If defined, MANUAL_*_HOME_POS below will be used
  //#define BED_CENTER_AT_0_0  // If defined, the center of the bed is at (X=0, Y=0)
//Manual homing switch locations:
  #define MANUAL_X_HOME_POS 209
  #define MANUAL_Y_HOME_POS 200
  #define MANUAL_Z_HOME_POS 0

#if SOLIDOODLE_VERSION == 3

#define X_MAX_POS 209
#define X_MIN_POS 0
#define Y_MAX_POS 200
#define Y_MIN_POS 0
#define Z_MAX_POS 194
#define Z_MIN_POS 0

I have also run in to a skip that always happened at the same point in the print for no reason, with no grinding noise.  It turned out to be a problem with the endstop wiring.  That would be a long shot since I think you said endstops were set to homing only, but open up the log and see if an endstop hit shows up during the print.

As for the bed, the best thing may be to upgrade the power supply and then go from there.

Now, let's see if this does, or does not, have to do with this oddly consistent 10mm skip on the Y axis on layer 2.  That is, after the endlessly long heat-up wait...

The trouble seems to be that when I do Park, or X Home, or Y Home, or All Home, the head moves to the right rear as it should, but Repetier-Host shows 0 0 even though the head is actually at 200 200.  Consequently, RH refuses to move left or forward even though that's the only direction it can go.  And it is willing to try to move right or back, even though it can't.

I don't remember if, last week, after homing, RH showed 200 200; my memory of the screen's not perfect.  It sure seems like it must have been, though; it's corresponding well to RH's unwillingness to move the extruder now.
