<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — Repitier host 0.95e]]> https://www.soliforum.com/topic/5174/repitier-host-095e/ Fri, 28 Feb 2014 14:00:58 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: Repitier host 0.95e]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/51113/#p51113 The answer is twofold - and directories given are Windows but should hold true for other OS's (but using their respective 'directories' where applicable)...

Easy answer is - for many, they will just continue to work, with some minor exceptions.
Repetier-Host settings, as shipped by Solidoodle, are actually registry settings that override the defaults based on its installed directory of 'Repetier-Host-Solidoodle' . This also goes for its AppData folder (Solidoodle Repetier installs the default slic3r.ini into \users\username\appdata\local\RepetierHostSolidoodle\
When you install the 'normal' Repetier-Host - it installs into \Repetier-Host . 
You can 'retain' some of the SD setup by just changing the new repetier-host install to point to \Repetier-Host-Solidoodle and install over the top.

But if you don't do that or loose it, doesn't matter, because thankfully - Repetier Host actually has 3/5ths of f-all config in it wink
The major 'important' stuff is actually in Slic3r...

In Repetier-Host You need to simply make sure in the Printer Shape tab that:
Printer Type is set to 'Classic with Dump Area',
Home X/Home Y set to Max, and Home Z set to Min.
set the sizes accordingly (for SD3, its XMin 0, XMax 205, YMin 0, YMax 200m, Bed left 0, Bed Front 0.
Area Width is 205, depth is 200, height is 200.
Dump area is 205/210/0/200 in that order..
On the Printer tab, just make sure the temps are 195/95 for defaults and that 'park position' is logical.
Oh and of course the correct Serial Port at 250000 is selected smile

Now - for all your 'actual' config - the Slic3r Settings; They all live in \Users\Username\Appdata\Roaming\Slic3r and your new installed Slic3r *should* read from the same directory. If you want to be very sure - simply go into slic3r BEFORE you upgrade (slic3r config screen...), and under the 'file' menu, choose Export and export the configs. Then should they be missing in the 'new' slic3r, you can simply choose 'import' and re-import them.

Once you get 'off' the Solidoodle-RepetierHost  and onto 'standard' Repetier-Host ; subsequent installs retain all settings - you just install the new versions after downloading them.

Thanks!

Just updated to the latest version (0.95F).  I am having trouble with this version loading models.  It has been taking 30 min and only about 20% done importing the .stl file.  It could be the .stl file but I was importing the files into the a previous version (0.82B) without any real delay. 

Running Windows 7 with an SD3. 

I have been using Skeinforge for all my prints and I have decided to upgrade repeiter and get the latest Slic3r working.  I was very impressed how well it sliced models and printed them on an Orion Delta printer I was setting up.

Any thoughts on loading .stl time would be helpful!

Have you tried turning off "AVOID CROSSING PERIMETERS" before slicing.  There is a known issue with slicing either taking too long or hanging with the feature turned on.

I like the look and feel of .95. I did have to change some defaults to run the printer. When I get home, I will post some print screens. Slic3r 1.0 is giving me really nice prints on some small clips and pin I have been running. Much cleaner that the previous version.

You do have to change it to a huge number, save, then change back to what you wanted in the first place for it to work.

I can't complain too much, the price was great and the SD2 has been working like a champ since I got it tuned in.

I've been using a Panelolu because I had issues with computer lag. I miss the computer interface but the Panelolu is great and has eliminated host issues for me.
