slice height... and other questions about arduino...

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Firts of all I would like to say that your system looks very promissing ! I 
really would like to work with it...
Because there is noting on the wiki, I ask my questions here..

Then a (stupid) question : how do you adjust the height of the slice you want ?
When you hit "printer setup", is there a windows which should pop up to adjust 
parameters ? (I don't get any window)...

I have an Arduino One rv 3 and Arduino Motor Shield (L298N) (SKU:DRI0009)... 
what do you use for your tests ?
When I try to connect, after 10 minutes, it says "resseting arduino".. is it 
normal ? after 20 minutes.. nothing.. I had to crash the program.. you will 
find the log attached..
Thank you and go ahead ! it is a great project!

sorry.. because I was enable to fix the arduino problem; I did not see that the 
slice thickness was fixed in the printing process...
then my problem remain with the arduino..

The host needs a proper firmware to be upload to the arduino. 
Theres a button "Upload Firmware" right below the serial port widget that does 
that for you automatically. 

Unfortunate it only works with Arduino Mega 2560 right now. We do have plans to 
add proper support to Arduino Mega 1280, but that's low priority right now. 

There's no plans to support Arduino Uno since the firmware currently requires 
47kb of memory, and the only ones that can handle that size is Arduino Mega 
1280/2560. 

I would recommend you to grab an Arduino Mega 2560 on ebay, since they are 
pretty cheap these days, around $25,00 bucks! :)

Also, we only support our own "CS1 Shield" at the moment, which we may have a 
couple prototypes in stock. Let me known if you want one and I can confirm if 
we still have and how much it would cost including shipping.
