It is very beneficial to have a hotend for each temperature range. Please note the
cooling fan must be removed above 275C so the shroud does not melt!
Why does the extruder show a negative C temperature at room temperature?
The Dyze Designs thermistor is very powerful, but lacks the ability to read room
temperatures accurately. It is accurate and safe for 3D Printing as it reads the
ranges we use for 3D Printing (180C-400C) perfectly fine, however room
temperatures values will not be read correctly.
Why are the electronics mounted on the outside?
This is to prevent any heat soak from the internal printing temperatures.
Where can I find software updates?
We have the latest files on our website under the
Support
section. All updates are
done through the Duet Web Control interface via Settings – Upload Files.
I am having a hard time loading filament, what can I do?
Please check that the end of the filament, the part you are pushing through, is cut
at a 45 degree angle. This angle helps guide the filament through the sensor and
through the hotend. You can also remove the Teflon from the metal, silver,
connectors by pushing the collar down and pulling the Teflon tube out.
I turned the unit on, but nothing will move, from the Move screen, why?
As a safety feature, the unit needs to be Homed (via the touchscreen) so the 3D
Printers knows where everything is. Please be sure nothing is on the print plate
when this is performed.
The blue LED is on for the Wifi network, but I can't connect to it through the
Duet Web Control?
Sometimes a router will assign the unit a new IP address. Open the Console and
type M552 and press enter – this command will show you the new IP address.
What is the warranty on the unit?
Every ICARUS unit has a one year hardware warranty from the date the unit is
delivered to the customer – this only covers hardware defects – not user damage.
