Chapter 7: Upload Firmware 15 Minutes Download the Firmware: Download the latest FELIX Tec 4 Firmware version from: http://www.felixprinters.com/downloads_felixprinters Upload the Firmware to the Control Board: 1. Unzip the downloaded file to a convenient location. (Note: if you click on the zip file from within the Windows explorer, it will NOT be unzipped. You just view the content of the zip. You need to select the files and drag them to the desired location.) 2. Connect your printer to your computer and turn it on. Do not make a connection at this time with the printer with programs like Repetier-Host or SimplifyD.. Start the batch file upload_automatic.bat. A script will start in a command window. 4. The script will try to detect what COM port your printer is using. Check if this is correct, and then proceed by entering Y in the command window. 5. The firmware is uploaded when Programming finished! is displayed, this may take a few minutes. 6. Press any key to continue. The FELIX TEC 4 firmware is now successfully uploaded. Note for Experienced Users: Due to compatibility issues with linux based systems, the baudrate for the FELIX Tec 4 is lowered to 115200. Make sure to adjust the settings in the used software accordingly. FELIXprinters Assembly Manual for the FELIX Tec Series Page 2

Chapter 9: Functional Test 10 Minutes In order to make sure all motors, sensors and LCD panel are connected properly, the following tests need to be performed Main board Tec 4 Check heaters: 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. 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 degc. Then check if temperature for that heater goes up. Repeat these steps for the right extruder (E2) and for the Bed (55degC). FELIXprinters Assembly Manual for the FELIX Tec Series Page 4

Check Motor Cable Connections: IMPORTANT: Keep hand near ON/OFF switch of printer, in case things go wrong. X-axis motor To make sure the wires are connected as required it is important to test all connections. To do so for the x-axis: enter menu by pushing the rottary button --> Control --> Move --> Home X Y-axis motor To test the y-axis: enter menu by pushing the rottary button --> Control --> Move --> Home Y Z-axis motor NOTE: When doing home z, extruders heatup to 120 DegC to prevent possible filament blobs from scratching the kapton surface layer. Important: ensure flexplate is placed on the print bed. To test the z-axis: enter menu by pushing the rottary button --> Control --> Move --> Home Z FELIXprinters Assembly Manual for the FELIX Tec Series Page 5
