3DGence DOUBLE P255 | version 09.2018

ATTENTION

: do not leave the hotends heated to high temperatures for more than 15 minutes if there is no material

flow. Otherwise, the material may degrade and block the hotend.

Fan speed

- this screen enables smooth adjustment of current power of the printout cooling fans within the range of 1% -

100%.

Auto fan on/off

–

the option is active by default (on). If this option is deactivated (off), the setting of the fans will be in

compliance with the power set in the printer and the commands resulting from the machine code will be ignored.
