How do I stop this macro error coming up all the time

Is still printing fine

And can any one Id the second nozzel I thought it was a .5 but I don't see a listing for one the other is a .4 and is it the v6 or something else

If you're referring to an Orca Slicer profile for a 0.5mm nozzle then there probably isn't one, 0.5mm nozzles are pretty rare actually. Most of us use a 0.4mm nozzle and that it the size you should use for your initial setup and tuning.

Once you get your printer running nicely with a 0.4mm nozzle... you can experiment with different sizes later.

You need to enable exclude_object.

This is a really nice feature that you really want to have enabled. What it does is add the ability to exclude one or more failed objects from a multi-part print. The video below will give you every you need to know about setting it up. Basically you need to add a line to your printer.cfg, moonraker.conf and add a file called Exclude_Object.cfg

Printer.cfg - Add

[exclude_object]

Moonraker.conf - In the file manager section add (if you don't have a file_manager section, copy/paste both lines below, if you do and it's not there add the bottom line.

[file_manager]
enable_object_processing: True

Once done save and restart.

This video is a bit old but is as good of an explanation as you can get.

What I don't understand is according to what I read about that hotend I am ment to have a .4 for hf setup and .6 if I want to for uhf but I will be going to .4

I don't see a listing for .5 but it looks like it is a .5

How do u get into moonraker file config I have never done this b4 or is it the same config and in fluid config

I mean there's only one way to confirm and that's to see if a 0.5mm pin fits thru the hole. Apart from that, the 0.5mm stamped on the side is a pretty compelling indicator if you ask me.

Yes, Same as the printer.cfg.

Just watch and follow the video. It's literally copy and paste a couple lines in each file. Save and restart and you're done.

From memory, I think this is the button on fluid that opens your config files. Click on that button and it should open a list of files. Look for moonraker.conf, click on the file and it should open, ready to edit. Be sure to make a backup copy before changing anything.

Fluidd is both foreign and familiar at the same time to me.

Have not used it since installing it on the V0.1 before replacing it with mainsail, which I am now upgrading, thus could not even remember where to find the equivalent to the "machine button"

That button has the config button will have a look tonight and see it the moonraker one is there

sleepster217 · August 20, 2024

So I wrote a email asking what nozzels the rapido 2f has and what sizes it should have they replied with v6 style as I have seen you guys say b4 and not stated what sizes yet some of the info for this hot end is a little vague

Also here is a pic of the first print going to do some other calabration prints it just started doing the 210 and touched the print and knocked it off I heard the pop when it hit

Is done in pla front doors open and Bed at 60 from memory has been saved

sleepster217 · August 20, 2024

And here are the rest

sleepster217 · August 20, 2024

Can any one advise me how to do a nozzle wipe b4 calabration as I have a nozzle brush on the printer and a purge bucket too

TitusADuxass · August 20, 2024

I used these when I set up my nozzle brush -

Nozzle Scrubber with a Little Bucket for Voron 2.4 by FunFunBoy | Download free STL model | Printables.com

sleepster217 · August 24, 2024

Well started doing some more calabration prints one small problem I have noticed is when I hit print warms up heat bed and nozzel to 220 and bed to 60 no problem then it dose the xy end stop cal all good goes to center of the bed drops temp to 150 like it is ment to dose the z probe cal all good then the quad gantry cal and then the bed mesh and if I don't pause the print when it gets to the end of the bed mesh it will say hot end temp to low (which it is at 150 ) and cans the print

If I pause it I can rise the temp back up via klipper screen and then press resume but I find it a little annoying is it to do with the start print macro or orca ?

Other small issue is the start of the print as seen in pic front left is starting rough is not doing a purge also not doing the first layer outer border as well head is doing the movement just not extruding

mvdveer · August 24, 2024

To get the border, you need to let Orca know you want it

Under the "others" tab, enable skirt loops and set it to 1 , 2 or however many you want.

Your printer not heating is either a setting in your macro, or in the GCode in Orca.

Here is my Orca Code:

M104 S0 ; Stops OrcaSlicer from sending temp waits separately
M140 S0
print_start EXTRUDER=[first_layer_temperature] BED=[first_layer_bed_temperature] CHAMBER=[chamber_temperature]

Have not had a chance to look at it in mine as I have the kids atm but as for the no border was just not extruding as u can see in first print but once it got to the second print it was on was like it was slow at getting going I think it just needs to purge or prime

To get the border, you need to let Orca know you want it

Under the "others" tab, enable skirt loops and set it to 1 , 2 or however many you want.

Your printer not heating is either a setting in your macro, or in the GCode in Orca.

Here is my Orca Code:

M104 S0 ; Stops OrcaSlicer from sending temp waits separately
M140 S0
print_start EXTRUDER=[first_layer_temperature] BED=[first_layer_bed_temperature] CHAMBER=[chamber_temperature]

This is under printer, machine GCode:

And this is My macro that goes with it

So I have input both of your macros in the relevant spots and they work much better only small problem I have it when printing pla bed temp 60 deg is doing the print wait 10 min is that a small problem with that macro or have I got a different macro acting up that needs to be disabled

This is the part of the macro responsible for that. It is written that it should ignore heatsoak if bed temperature is below 90 degrees. Don't know why it still does a heatsoak - may=be a syntax error in the macro.

You can just comment it out for PLA and re-introduce it for ABS.

I am not competent enough in macro creation to troubleshoot why it is not doing it. In this section of the macro, just comment this out.

#G4 P600000     # no heatsoak, e.g. PLA

This command tells the macro to pause. As I said, you can put in an argument that if the bed temp is lower than xxx, then ignore the G4 P600000 command. It is there but obviously not working. It can be fixed, I just don't know how to do it ---YET!

Has it been doing the same for u

Yeah think I might just # the heat soak bit out like u said

claudermilk · September 11, 2024

Try changing

{% if params.BED|int > 90 %}

to

{% if target_bed > 90 %}

I mean, that's why you defined the variable, right? I always reference the variables, not the direct parameters.
