Topic: Cant figure out connection issue

When I go to the repetier host I can conncet to my printer.  I can even get the all of the axis to move.  Once I heat the extruder and the bed I cant do anything.  It just keeps adding up commands no matter how long I wait.

Just found out when I go to heat the print bed It stops working.

Re: Cant figure out connection issue

Does the bed actually heat up for a while?

Are you getting any errors in the Log screen at the bottom of RH?  Like asking you to use M999 to reset?

Re: Cant figure out connection issue

didnt have any errors.  I ended up using another power supply and it worked.  Now it runs like it is going to print and doesnt finish it. 
Love figuring out one thing and then fixing something else.

i have two machines  I have had a belt broke when I got them, an x motor went bad and now a power supply in less than a year.

Re: Cant figure out connection issue

Does it actually begin to print (extrude) and just stop?

It runs the extruder to the middle and the plate touchs and then it goes back to the starting spot and says it completed the print

Sounds a bit similar to this topic (although this was the bed heater waiting to get up to heat and failing):

Can you post a printout of your Slic3r GCODE?

I am now getting a resend 1474 message.

Re: Cant figure out connection issue

Did it get anywhere with the actual print?

That seems like a request for a missed line number...connection issue?

At this point I would suggest checking baud rate settings and your USB connections and then consider swapping the cable.
