How to keep stepper motors active

I have been able to print my first print successfully on my Prusa Delta Rostock 3d printer G2s, using the PLA which was delivered with the printer. Now I was trying to print the same item with ABS, but failed. I think my calibration is not good enough. I can move the print head around and measure th...

Re: Uploading DELTA_RADIUS has no effect.

No, I was using a longer high-speed cable which caused the problem. Now I am using the cable which was delivered with the machine and uploading is going fine. I have also printed my first objects which does not go well enough. I need some more calibration.

Re: Uploading DELTA_RADIUS has no effect.

Found the problem. The USB cable I was using for programming was too long. Sometimes programming seemed to be okay according to Arduino 1.0.5, sometimes programming failed due to time-out.

Re: Uploading DELTA_RADIUS has no effect.

Yes, I have levelled the heatbed. Firstly with a caliper to make sure the distance between the heatbed and the acryl base beneath it is the same near the three screws. And then as described in the manual by sending the printhead to three places close to the towers and making the distance to the heat...

Uploading DELTA_RADIUS has no effect.

I am calibrating my new Prusa Delta Rostock 3D Printer G2s and everything seems to be going ok up to the point that I have to change and upload DELTA_RADIUS in the firmware. I now do have a convex surface on my Z plane. If my printhead is in the middle, it is 1.39mm lower than when the printhead is ...
