Topic: "Printer stopped due to errors, fix the error and restart"

Reminds me of an old ibm software debugging manual, anyway got this message and noticed neither the extruder or the bed was heating up.
It stopped about half way thru a 4 hr print.
ideas?

Rob

Your max temperature was tripped more that likely. What is your temp set to for your extruder? Also, you should autotune your PID. If you do a quick search you will find a link to the procedure. This will make your extruder temps rock solid.

I think the wire they use for that connector sucks. This is how mine looked right out of the box. I spent many hours the first day trying to figure out why my PC would not connect properly and how I was hitting the MINTEMP with no heat.
