Wrong power cord

Post by Chub » Thu Feb 07, 2019 11:22 am

I finally got my A10M today. For starters it was in many pieces, not preassembled like most show. Not a big deal. Took a few hours to build. All excited to start it up and see what happens. Only to find out that the power cord is European, 2 round connectors instead of the 2 rectangular ones. Can I use a cord from a computer?? Still 115v.
Second question,. Do I have to install the filament detector? I can't see how they install. Any pictures would be great. I will Google install tomorrow.
Thanks all

Of course you can. But there is one condition.
This can only be done if the PSU has a 230/110V AC power selector switch in the correct position.

This is an option, but you need to track the configuration of the printer and make any necessary settings.

I could give more detailed answers, but I do not have this printer. :D
