I3 Pro W connection Issues with PC
Posted: Sun Dec 02, 2018 9:52 am
Recently finished assembly of my I3 Pro W printer, downloaded the firmware and EasyPrint 3D as per the User Manual's instructions. However once i plugged it into my pc, the LCD came up with; "NO CARD! START TEST!"
After placing a freshly wiped SD card in with a copy of a simple .STL file that had been sliced and saved to the SD card using Easyprint, the LCD changed to "Card IS OK! Start Test".
I am able to connect to the printer with EasyPrint, using Com7 and Baud 25000, however I cannot control the printer's movement and when i go to run a job, is stays at "19:43:04" Until print start.
The chip is a 'CH340C', I am using Windows 10, I have checked all connections, I have tried running a print off of 'RepetierHost', with the same issues.
Is there any firmware or formatting i have to load onto the SD card? Is the board missing firmware? Do i have to load it with an Arduino IDE to check the code?
