Detailed update process

Update Package File Selection

Note that all updates cannot be updated from higher versions

We are equipped with two different probes for the Max model, one is a regular probe and the other is a Bltouch probe. Different types of probes require different configuration files. So we have placed configuration files suitable for two different probes in the upgrade package. You can freely choose to adapt to the configuration of the probe you are currently using, but this requires you to perform some operations on this upgrade package file. Don't worry, it is just a simple file operation, and we will provide a complete operation example here.

  1. Download the latest upgrade package file and unzip it in the current folder. There is a QD_Update in the extracted folder. (Recent version will not have QD_factory_mode.txt in it)

    sample

    sample

Open the QD_Update folder, as shown in the figure below, shows two different configuration files inside, and you only need one of them.

2.Identify the type of probe you are using

3.Keep only the configuration file of the corresponding probe, delete the other one, and rename the remaining one to 'printer. cfg'. As shown in the following figure, you can use this update package to update your machine

sample

You may be worried about why the max model has a plus model in the configuration file. Please don't worry, this is for users who may have just reset the storage in the machine. The reset version will fall back to the ancient version, making it difficult to recognize the firmware with normal names. You don't need to worry about the existence of these files, which will affect your upgrade. The system will find the files it needs to update itself, The extra files will not have any impact on it.

Packaged files

  1. Select the latest version in the version release bar next to it, download the compressed file package starting with MAX and extract it locally.

Different from the usual method of directly accessing the fluid page through an IP address, the QIDI version sets the default port number to 10088, so you need to add :10088 after the machine's IP to access the fluid page
The 3D printers of QIDI are based on Klipper.On the basic of Klipper open source project, we have made some modifications to it's source code to meet some of the user's needs.At the same time, we have also made modifications to Moonraker, so that the screens we set can correspond to the operations on the page. Thanks to the developers and maintainers of these open source projects.Please consider using or supporting these powerful projects.
