Probe and Endstop Z always triggered
Hello,
I have a vcore4 500 Idex and after i went through the assembly and testing i got to the endstops where i found both the probe and the endstop Z allways appear as Triggered and even when pressed/activated(i assume that's what the red light turning on is) the status doesn't change. I also got all the motors turning the right side but when trying to home the Z axis homes down. I assume it should move up.
Best Regards

Solution:
what did you select in the configurator? Looks like you chose probe which I believe is incorrect if you are using beacon
Y axis stutters during movement
So I am buildilng self-sourced vc4 500. During commisioning at bed mesh scan I noticed that Y axis moves slighy up and down. Also when I do slight movement from Mainsail just on Y direction, it starts with quite high vibration, that doesnt happened on X axis movement. I got mesh at 0.183 on a cold and very low gantry twist report. By hand all movements feel smooth.

vcore 3.1 500 Bed Mesh
So I put my vcore 3.0 now 3.1 back together in hopes of trying to get the bed mesh sorted. I have always struggled with bed adhesion issues on this printer, and I feel like the bed mesh is somewhat at the root of this, even with adaptive meshing. anyhow, I have taken this thing completely apart, watched all the videos, and I still come back with this same general bed shape. Sort of "Taco shaped, with a wave at the back. By moving the Z tilt positions some, I have been able to get it to lay a...
bed mesh and first layer issues
I have an vcore 4 idex 500. The bed mesh shows the bed as being warped. I have attempted multiple adjustments, checked and rechecked everything. attached are 2 screenshots of the bed mesh of the last print attempt and the default. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sensor 'extruder' temperature 45496.282 not in range - Differences in Rapido 2 Hotends?
Hi!
I had to replace my VCore 4s Rapido 2 UHF Hotend and now ended up with the error "Sensor 'extruder' temperature 45496.282 not in range 0.000:350.000"
This might be down to potential differences in the Rapido 2 Hotends. I bough another UHF, its thermistor looks different tough, its screwed in.
The more I am trying to read into it, the more confused I get about what Rapido 2 might be the correct one and if this is my issue in the first place. ...
PrintFarm OS
Hi friends,
Now im in process of assembling v-core 4 print farm. ( for now only 8 idex machines v4300, 1x v3.1-500, in future there will be more ) and i would like to ask if there is some kind of operation system that can control all printers info, maybe its included in RatOS somehow. Something like PrusaConnect where i can see info about print session, printer status ETC.
It would be great to see real life solutions, ( maybe from RatRig ?? ) ...

MCU 'toolboard_t0' shutdown: ADC out of range
First-time build here, using the parts from the default kit. I've seen other posts about this, and generally it seems that this issue is as a result of thermistor wires being incorrectly wired, incorrectly crimped, loose, etc.
Since I did crimp the wires as per the guide, I figured maybe this was the issue, and swapped out my hotend for one from my IDEX upgrade kit with the wires in the box (super long) to make the connection just to see if that helps. It seems the issue still perists. Any other ideas? Does the fan have to be connected to the board in order for the toolhead to speak to the system? I unplugged it for the time being because it runs at 100% speed and sounds like a tornado. Attached are pictures of my toolhead....
Solution:
Correct. Without the jumper you would need a different type of sensor
PT1000 & Octopus PRO
Hi there,
I'm in the process of configuring Rapido ACE with PT1000 onto Octopus PRO.
I have dipswitches configured since that's the only thing that anybody is talking about when PT1000 is configured 🙂
I have a few questions and did not find answers on Octopus GIT, here or searching the web. ...
