LCD Display
i had the same issue with the LCD Display during the build, the frame holes didn't align well with the display so i had to enlarge it in order to fit and put some washers .

Y Iddler.

Testing the Y bed movement i noticed that the belt tends to rub in the wood mount even though i spent some time trying to get my belt as aligned as possible . my Fix was suggested by Printbus in his Build Thread . i add an additional washer .

Micro Adjustable Z Endstop

the screw that is use to adjust the Z height. is interfering with the bottom right mounting screw on the X iddler mount base. i haven't come with a solution to that yet . if i put it farther right it doesn't contact the Z endstop .

PronterFace Issue

So by mistake i soldered one of the pins of the LCD adapter Backwards . i tried to desolder the pins (which was very hard to do due to the amount of pins and size) with no success . so for the moment the only way to test my printer is via pronterface until i get a new adapter.

Im having 2 issues.

Home position for Each Axis

when i "click" any of the Axis home buttom . the motors only move a little like 3mm and it stops , it does not go all the way until they hit the endstop . i checked my endstop connection and with the M119 command and everything is working "properly".

PronterFace temp error shoting down printer

when i connect the board to pronteface im getting this error.

Extruder switched off. MINTEMP triggered !
Error printer stopped due to errors. Fix the error and use M999 to restart. (Temperature is reset. Set it after restarting)
[ERROR] Error printer stopped due to errors. Fix the error and use M999 to restart. (Temperature is reset. Set it after restarting)

I proceed to check if my thermistor where working right . im getting temperatures for both thermistor in the Temperature Graph connected on EX0 and Bed Slots . also i noticed that pronterface does not give me this error if it detects temperatures on EX0 and EX1 by moving one of the thermistors to the second extruder Slot .

Ill apreciate any help to solves this issues . i will like to do at least some test if is posible until i get my LCD adaptor.


sorry for my english

Initially, when I was setting up my printer I wasn't getting anything on the LCD, so I tried using pronterface as well. I was also getting the same errors. I ended up solving my screen issue and my pronterface issue by updating the firmware and using the one listed in the build guide. I'm not sure what firmware is on the rambo when it ships, but I'm pretty sure it's not the right one for this printer. I downloaded Arduino software directly from their website and got the firmware for the build guide.
