What version of FW are you running?

Running Repetier 0.92 modified to support the Davinci series ( https://github.com/luc-github/Repetier-Firmware-0.92 ). Just looked at that page and it appears he's working on support for the 1.0A models.

Thanks for the "point out". I noticed these tips and appreciated them as well.
By the way, did you get successful with "machine control" ? Every times I try to play with the temperature, S3D kinda lose connection with my Da Vinci.

For others who use S3D, wanted to point out the "Tip of the Day" postings on the S3D "General Discussions and Tips" forum (http://www.forum.simplify3d.com/viewforum.php?f=8): I've found them really helpful in demystifying some of the more involved features and settings.

And if anyone has some particularly useful Davinci-specific S3D tips or comments, please share.
