24 The first steps
NAVIGATING THROUGH THE LCD MENU
If you touch this option in the main menu display, you will be redirected to another
display in which, as in the main menu, both the “Head temp” and the “Bed temp”
can be readily seen. The first number represents the current temperature and
the second number, after the slash (/), represents the target temperature that
the component, either the head or the bed, will heat up to once engaged. There
is also a display showing the “Selected material”, which can be chosen using
the filament icon explained in more detail below. If you look closely at the icons
on the bottom of the screen, you will
first see the “back” button to the far left,
which will return you to the main menu.
The next two options from the left, the
extruder “Head”/nozzle and the heated
“Bed”/build plate icons, will allow you
to engage or disengage heating for both
components. Once you touch either
one or both of these icons, you will see
the above grey numerical temperature
information, directly following the “Head
temp” and the “Bed temp” text, change to white. If the temperature is white, or
highlighted, then this means that the component is either heating up or is already
heated. If it is grey, then this means that it is disengaged. Use the two buttons
to change back and forth. The next option, moving down the line, looks like a
filament spool, and this option will adjust the temperature of the head and the
bed to the default settings of the different filament types (PLA, ABS, PET, customer
“User” selection). As an extra, useful information concerning the characteristics
of each filament type you can see running across the screen.
