Hello, How can we help?

The printer tracks printing statistics. When you access this option during a print, you will see statistics for the running print. If you do so while the printer is idle, you will see the total statistics. Both filament usage and print time are tracked.

You can find Initialize error option the LCD Menu -> Initialize error. The data can be easily reset once you do a Factory reset.

Running out of filament

    If you run out of filament, the printer will automatically pause the print, move the X-carriage away from the print and prompt you to unload the remaining few centimeters of the material from the heatbreak and replace the spool and insert a new filament.

The printer will guide you how to resume printing safely:

    "Please press the knob to unload the filament" = Press the knob to unload the remaining few centimeters of the filament.

    "Repeat unloading filament?  [Yes/No] = If everything went well, press [Yes]. If not, then press [No]. The printer will lock the x-axis motor and will allow you to open the extruder idler to clear the remains of the filament manually. 

•     To open the extruder idler, simply release the spring screw running through the extruder, holding the idler-door.
•     Then, you can use the bundled pliers to remove the filament remains. If some of it got stuck in the top PTFE tube, simply push it out with new filament. 
•     Close the extruder idler by re-tightening the spring screw. The Head of the screw should be about flush with the plastic parts when the filament is loaded.

    "Insert filament and press the knob" = Make sure to insert the same type of filament, cut the tip of the filament and insert the filament and press the knob. 

    "Changed correctly?" [Yes/Filament not loaded/Color not clear] = If everything went fine and the new filament is coming out nicely (and has the right color), simply press [Yes]. If you think that the filament was not loaded properly, press [Filament not loaded], which will push through the same amount of filament as before. If the color is not clear, then press [Color not clear], this way it will push through only a bit of filament.

The printer can fully recover from a complete loss of power without the need for batteries or a UPS. A special sensor detects mains voltage, and in case of an interruption, it immediately shuts down the heatbed and extruder heating, leaving enough power in the capacitors to store the position and lift the print head away from the print. In case of a very short power failure, the printer will attempt to continue printing immediately without waiting for user interaction.

Resuming the print

When the power comes back, the printer will give you an option to continue the print. Keep in mind that during extended periods without power, the bed will cool down and the printed object can detach itself from the sheet plate. So, before resuming the process, check the following: 

• Make sure that all objects are still attached to the steel sheet plate.
• Follow the instructions on the LCD screen and resume the print.
• Stay with the printer for about 10 minutes and make sure that the printing process continues without any problems.

The contents of the SD card in the SV01 printer are updated in the order of time on the LCD screen. The earlier the Gcode file is imported, the later the file location will be. The newly imported Gcode file will be placed at the top of the printer file option.

The printer's firmware and display type determine the number of displays. What we limit the SV02 touch screen is to select only the first 20 files sorted by time. Different displays with different configurations.
