1. Product Information The SKSM is an external module for 3D printers that features the ability to save data in the event of a power outage. It is suitable for 3D printers that use 12-24V DC power supplies and are equipped with Klipper firmware, such as the Ender 3.
2. Powering Up When the SKSM is powered on, the red LED in the upper left corner (which flashes for 15 seconds when the capacitors are completely discharged) indicates its status. The red light flashes during charging, and once the BAT+5V begins to discharge normally, the red light stays on continuously.
