Upload To Sdcard

How does the upload to SDCARD function work ?

Does it work with Replicator 1 clones ?

Re: Upload To Sdcard

Yes, but generally it is MUCH faster to just plug the SD card into your computer and transfer it that way.

But even if you do that, you can still use Simplify3D's machine control panel to start and control the print.

Re: Upload To Sdcard

Well I have had a go, and it does not work for me. Both print from and upload to. It might be because I am using sailfish - I'm not sure.

When trying to upload, after it tells me the base file name can't be longer than 8 characters, it then rates the build platform and tries to extrude from the cold extruders - still at home position. Then starts making really weird noises.

When I try to print from SD card, I can see my folders but the software fails to enter them.

I have tried with Replicator 1 clones. Sailfish 7.7

Not that I am bothered - never used it anyway. Just thought I would try.
