Stratasys Dimension 1200es Firmware Update Safe? #73

Open quark78 opened 5 years ago

quark78 commented 5 years ago

I currently have Version 7.0 Build 1866 firmware running on my Dimension 1200es (firmware circa 2007). I see that the latest available firmware is Version 10.1 Build 3810 (firmware circa the past ~2 years or so I think). I currently use this eeprom programmer to reset/reload both the model and support cartridges (Filling them to 99,999 in^3). Does the latest 10.1 firmware still accept rewritten eeproms on both the cartridges (and to 99,999 in^3)? Can anyone confirm this?

For rewritten eeproms - yes, it works on 10,1 firmware. For 99,999 in^3 - don't know.

On my machine "Dimension Elite" with 10.1 Build 3810 the rewritten cartridges are not working. "Material Error". I use the daemon mode to refill the cartridge. @azumi-san how do you rewrite your eeproms ?

I'm using C# version of flashing software for my 1200es. Select Prodigy machine. Read it at first, then just change material quantity and serial number. Try to use quantity less than 60in^3.

Thanks, the arduino/windows workflow works here also.

@CTSchorsch do you know if the issue with the daemon mode was related to the qty of material on the cartridge?

CTSchorsch commented 5 years ago

@bvanheu I dont know. I switched to the windows/arduino version and did not investigate the problems with the linux daemon
