I have huge problems with RF2000.

From time to time the LCD is going completely blank.

I have had over 20 problems with auto leveling, where the leveling was not completed . turning on and off the power source of the printer helped every time, so it is a software problem.

In repetier and in menu, extruders have different names. 0 and 1 , 1 and 2, and extruder 1 in firmware is extruder 1 in repeater, but extruder 0 is extruder 2. that is very annoying, you never know which extruder will be working.

And last thing, because Conrad electronic is a company i will never ever come back, and probably i will sold my printer (bought it 3 weeks ago), and i'm not a novice, I'm designing printers, i do own 3 other printers.

RF2000 technically and in build quality terms is good.

But it is not worth 2000 euro, cinco 3 weeks i couldn't print even one good print ! Makerbot does not have any of those problems, works magically well, ultimaker also.

What is wrong with this RFfirmware ?

Do you use the Repetier-Host with your RF2000? If yes, can you continue to operate your RF2000 via the Repetier-Host?

Please explain what exactly is a "problem with out leveling" for you. In case the heat bed scan does not complete, this is typically a mechanical reason and not a fault of the firmware.

0 and 1 , 1 and 2, and extruder 1 in firmware is extruder 1 in repeater, but extruder 0 is extruder 2. that is very annoying, you never know which extruder will be working.

There are the G-Codes "T0" (in order to select the 1. extruder) and "T1" (in order to select the 2. extruder). We kept this standard and we consequently use extruder 0 for the left extruder / extruder 1 for the right extruder within the firmware. The Repetier-Host uses a mix of 0/1 and 1/2, but this is outside our sphere of action.

But it is not worth 2000 euro, cinco 3 weeks i couldn't print even one good print !

Please explain exactly why your prints have failed.

Best Regards, RF1000
