Flashforge Dreamer Something Went Wrong Sending Firmware

Hello all!

I have a unique situation and I’m having some issues.

I upgraded my Dreamer with a Titan extruder and e3d v6 hotend.

In guild to get this to piece of work I upped the extrusion multiplier to 3.fourscore and it prints great… sometimes.

Later on awhile through a impress it starts chewing through the filament until it wears it in two.

Whatsoever thought what is causing this. Up until it does that it works corking!

I have tried increasing and decreasing tension on the filament just to run into what would happen and information technology still does information technology either manner. I’m a bit at a loss here every bit this is my first fourth dimension doing something similar this or messing with the Titan extruder.

Thanks for the reply!

It isn’t really out of calibration. The titan extruder has a gear ratio that comes in to play. So you have to either adjust e steps or up the multiplier to compensate for this.

I can’t alter e steps on the Dreamer to my knowledge though.

Ah okay haha, thought you meant something else.

To my knowledge no there isn’t, merely I hope I’thou wrong lol.

I may effort a postal service processing gcode script if i can figure out how to practice that.

From my understanding you lot can simply do that on the Creator Pro, just not certain.

Haven’t found a manner to adjust the steps without a complete board upgrade.

It wasn’t only that model as information technology ate through the filament on another model.

I don’t understand why it prints bully and and so starts chewing through the filament.

I but disassembled everything and put it back together. I adjusted the retraction to 0.5mm and 15 mm/s. This seems quite low, but I don’t know what else to do.

EDIT: Tested it out and it started grinding the filament by the second layer…

I have not as I’m not sure how to add that in the mail processing script. I estimate I could add it manually to the gcode for test, simply non sure where it needs adding.

From my understanding is there isn’t a style to modify it in EEPROM on the Dreamer. I have disassembled it completely and put information technology dorsum together last night with no luck and I made sure that the one screw that goes through the drive gear wasn’t too tight.

I have not messed with coast at all. So far all I have washed is reduce retraction and retraction speed. Can’t actually reduce that much more than other than turning off lol.

Information technology happens on the 2d layer on one model, but the other model is probably 20 layers into information technology before I see this problem.

I volition try sending that lawmaking to the printer and see if it will save to the EEPROM.

How do I tell it to extrude 100mm of filament?

I’ve done some enquiry and I accept yet to find anyone that has changed the firmware of the Dreamer, but I may not know exactly what to look for.

I volition start with trying to set esteps though and go from there.

I really don’t want to have to change out the lath to something else and go through that procedure every bit I’thou not really familiar with that either.

Ah okay, thanks! I volition effort this this evening.

Still trying to figure all this out lol.

Appreciate the help though.

Okay sounds good. I volition post dorsum with the results!

Thank you guys.

I was actually able to test this sooner than expected. Information technology shows that the code was received in the terminal of S3D for the Dreamer, only it doesn’t appear to really be doing anything.

It is extruding way less than 100mm when I attempt to extrude that amount.

I’k assuming this means I tin can’t write to EEPROM since it has no result?
