Functional Test
In order to make sure all motors, sensors and LCD panel are connected properly, the following tests need to be performed
Check Sensor Connections:
Z-sensor
The z-sensor can be tested by holding a metal object underneath the sensor. Check if the z-sensor LED turns off. When
the z-sensor indication LED on the main board switches off, the sensor is activated.
Y-sensor
Manually move the bed to its end position to activate the y-sensor. Check if the y-sensor LED turns off. When the y-sensor
indication LED on the main board switches off, the sensor is activated.
X-sensor
Manually move the extruder to its end position to activate the x-sensor. Check if the x-sensor LED turns off. When the x-
sensor indication LED on the main board switches off, the sensor is activated.

Check Heaters:
IMPORTANT: Keep hand near ON/OFF switch of printer, in case things go wrong.
Warm up left extruder (E1).
Note: The hot-ends might smell a bit the first time heating. This is because of a small amount of oil within certain parts.
Click rotary button to enter the main menu --> Control --> scroll down to heater --> Click on E1 and rotate until setpoint temperature increases to
about 100
˚
C. Then check if temperature for that heater goes up.
Repeat these steps for the right extruder (E2) and for the Bed (55
˚
C)
