Hello,

Sorry for my English.
I configured the printer as the tutorial shows.
I calibrate the printer with the Home key to Repetier.
All is ok but the 3 axes ( X, Y and Z ) move by itself after a few minutes.
the stepper motors do not take the extruder.
Can you help me please ?
Best regards.

Romain.

the extruder motor will not turn until the temperature reaches above 170 degrees, so have you checked this?
And here's a link to check the extruder problems:

No, the extruder motor is Ok.
it's the 3 motors that move the entire 'extruded'
without touching Repetier, they move alone in a minute or two
the extruder moves down 1 or 2 cm

oh sorry my bad. this is normal, the motor will disable themselves after 2-3mins, you if this happens during the calibration, you can move the Z axis around to keep it busy now and then...

Ok, thanks for this information.
Can we keep the 3 motors available all the time ?
May be an option box in Repetier software ?

you can try this: add "M84 S0" behind any command in the scripts, and every time after you home the printer, click the script to move it to the position, then it won't fall down again.
(you can change the command to the 3 coordinates when doing calibration)

it will not affect the firmware, just some shortcuts.
