Assembly Steps
1. Assemble Z/X Gantry Assembly to the Printer Host
Connect component 2 to component 1 using screws 6, 12, and 11.
2. Assemble Dual Extruder & Nozzle Kits
Attach component 3 to the gantry assembly using screws 8 and 13.
3. Assemble the Filament Holder
Mount the filament holder (component 11) onto the gantry using screws 15, 14, and 7.
4. Wiring
Connect the wiring harnesses (component 17, 18) to the corresponding ports (E1, E2, X1, X2, Z1, Z2) on the printer host and gantry assembly. Connect the power cable (19) and USB cable (15).
5. Enable Filament Runout Detection
Connect the filament runout sensors (component 13) to the mainboard and follow the on-screen prompts or manual instructions to enable the feature.
How to Use Touch Screen
The touch screen interface allows for control and monitoring of the 3D printer.
Main Interface Options:
- Tools: Access settings like Semi-automatic Leveling, Preheat PLA/ABS, Filament Reload, and Printing from any Height.
- Leveling: Initiate the bed leveling process.
- Cooling: Adjust fan speeds.
- Temp: Control nozzle and bed temperatures.
- Reload: Load or unload filament.
- Print from any z: Resume printing from a specific height.
- Nozzle 1 / Dual Material: Select printing modes (Single, Dual Material, Duplication, Mirror).
- Setting: Configure printer parameters such as XYZE steps, nozzle offsets (X2, Y2, Z2), fan temperatures, and fan speeds.
- Print SD: Start printing from an SD card.
- Move Axis: Manually control the movement of the printer axes (X, Y, Z).
- Power Off: Shut down the printer.
Nozzle Coordinates:
The screen displays current nozzle coordinates (X, Y, Z) and allows manual input for precise positioning.
Working Conditions:
Monitor current temperatures for Nozzle 1, Nozzle 2, Hot Bed, and Nozzle Fan Switch status.
Print Mode Selection:
Under the 'Dual Material' menu, users can select between 'Dual Material', 'Duplication', and 'Mirror' print modes.
Setting Menu Details:
- XYZE Steps: Defines steps per millimeter for each axis.
- X2 Y2 Z2: Nozzle offset values for Nozzle 2 relative to Nozzle 1.
- Fan2 Temp: Sets the startup temperature for the Nozzle Cooling Fan.
- Fan2 Speed: Controls the speed of the Nozzle Cooling Fan.
The interface also includes options for resetting settings, accessing 'About' information, and enabling 'Auto Power Off'.
