GPX-conversion for Replicator 2 with heated build plate

[Enginwiz]

Recently my Replicator 2 got upgraded with a heated build plate.
Please add a"Replicator 2 with HBP" to the list of selectable printers in Creator
and the string -m r2h to the GPX conversion command for postprocessing.

You got it! I will make sure that is included in the next update.

What heated build plate did you end up getting? We use our Rep2's a LOT and it would be nice to be able to print a few other materials on them.

I use the heated build plate developed and sold by Bottleworks.

Perfectly flat borosilicate glass plate. Professional build quality.

Highly recommended. It doesn't get better.

Any update on how to setup Rep 2 with the HBP?
Just got both Simplify3D and my HBP from Bottleworks and am eager to get them to work together.

Thanks!

Go to firmware config, X3G tab, and select Rep2 with HBP.

You can open your FFF Settings and load the standard Rep2 profile. Then go to the Temperature tab, click Add Temperature Controller, and enter the name "Heated Build Platform". Use the settings below.

Temp identifier: T0
Controller type: Heated build platform
Relay temp between layer and loop: both off
Wait for temp to stabilize: enabled

Then you can edit the first layer setpoint to have the desired bed temperature for whatever material you are printing. You may also want to add the following command to your ending gcode script if you want the bed to turn off after the print:

M140 S0 T0 ; cool down HBP

That's it! I figured out all of this by just comparing the standard Rep2 and Rep2X profiles. It's pretty easy to see what changes are needed.

Hope that helps!

I have tried this and as soon as I go to print the Heated build platform turns off, and doesn't heat up.
It heats up fine in preheat from the replicator 2's menu.

Any other ideas? Also I cant find Rep2 with HPB in the settings, I modified the standard rep2 profile.

Thanks
