Click the "Done" button and let's continue!
Maximize the MatterControl window to see the entire main screen. If you shrink the size of the
main window, features "fold" away to keep from cluttering the display. It's actually pretty clever.
Before we get to the details of getting your printer calibrated, let's cover what features are
available from MatterControl. Because the MatterControl display does contain so much information,
I'm going to break it down into smaller segments to make the screen shots easier to see as I describe the
various components in MatterControl.
1. This is the print queue display. If
nothing is queued up, you'll see the
message, "No items in the print
queue". To add an item, click the
"Add" button (#13). We'll cover this
in detail later. Note that you can
only select STL or GCODE files.
2. This is the temperature display. The
top number displays the current
nozzle temperature and the bottom
number covers the heated bed. Both
temperatures are displayed in
degrees Celsius.
3. Queue count. This lists the number
of objects currently loaded in the
print queue.
4. Library – this is a list of items that
you've stored in your object "library". We'll cover this one in detail later as well.
5. Print History – Clicking here will show you information about your recent print jobs, including
their start & end times as well as whether or not the job was completed.
6. Settings & Controls – this is where you can edit your slicer & printer settings as well as
manually control your Rostock MAX v2.
7. The Edit button will allow you to choose which items in the print queue will be available for
printing.
8. The Export button will allow you to export the currently select item as an STL, AMF, or
GCODE file. You can use this to save GCODE to an SD card for stand-alone printing
