I just picked up a used machine maybe I got ripped off. But driver wont work in either computer I put it in. I tried the manual load still no joy. I have a red light on the board on the back of the machine and the lights and fan run on the inside. Computers are 3.6 quad core running windows 7 pro 64 bit and 2.9 dual core running windows 7 home 32 bit.
There are two versions of the mainboard available on SD printers if it is stock... the older one is a sanguinololu and the newer versions come with a Printrboard, depending on which one you have different drivers may be required... What software have you installed? with windows you also need .net 3.5 sp1 installed.
ok Downloaded newer version of Host and am connected and can move all axis and the bed is heating up but not the hotend. will have to chase this problem down.
is the temp graph in RH showing about room temp for the extruder? are there any errors in the error log window? if all that is good then you might check the board terminals for the hotend heater and see if there is 12 volts there.
Also if you are new to 3dprinting when you do get the hotend to heat up never leave it heating and not printing for more than a couple minutes otherwise the plastic will burn/harden and clog things up and cause problems.
im having the exact same problem. i checked and made sure i was getting the right power in. I think im having a driver problem. the red light also wont go to greeen
