I am having problems getting part the early stage of commissioning an Ormerod 2 printer. I can connect to the printer with pronterface and issue commands. I am at the stage where I switch on the hot end. This all works and I can see the temperature reaching 100 degrees. At the point it reaches 100 degrees or soon after, pronterface reports that it cannot read or write to the printer. I have tried the following:-
ensure that the USB cable does not run alongside power leads
tried three different USB cables, the last having double screening and a ferrite block
I have resoldered the USB connector on the Duet board.
After all of that I still get the same problem.
Printer reset does not solve the problem either.
Any suggestions what to do next?
Thanks for your help.
Regards
Allan
