Topic: New Da Vinci V1 gives 0040 error on first demo print - what now?

Before trying my own STL files I thought I'd get it to do a demo. It stopped and gave me a 0040 (cannot read\write SD card) error. XYZprinting said they'll reply to my support request within 3 days. 3 days!

Anyone know about this error?

And anyone know how I should reset the machine... It os flashing and beeping in the middle of a stopped print. How do I switch it off safely?

Literally switch off and on the main switch on the back.

As I posted to your post in the other thread, see this thread.

The issue is the SD card. It is not plugged, fully seated, or worse faulty.

Printing since 2009 and still love it!

Thanks, I was not sure if that would damage something.

I'll try the demo again now, after reseating the SDA card...

Yes, it felt a bit loose. I've taken it out and pushed it back in again. Now I'll try the demo again...

Also, it says they'll respond within three days but they've never taken more than an hour to email me back.

If you need to exchange parts, that's another story.  That takes a while.
