i have installed the z- axis extension for making bigger projects, i started a larger print and it seemed to be working well until it stopped ascending and just kept printing on the same level, when i stopped and pulled the print off I measured it, the Z-axis stopped moving at 125mm, its like the co…

I don’t have the extension, but I think I found something in the forums. Did you upgrade the firmware to 2.11 and tell the controller that the extension is installed? According to the firmware upgrade notes : Added support to Z-Axis Extension Module. When you attach the Z-Axis Extension Module to…

You have to perform the above command from the console to tell the firmware you have a longer slide on it. Otherwise it will just stop rising up…

i have that installed seems to still not want to work, i may have to try re-downloading it. edit: anything i do to the snapmaker i am doing through the provided flash-drive, i have a gaming computer that i edit everything on, and i have the snapmaker in a shop.

I’m not sure that will work. How did you send the M1025 M1 command to the snapmaker? You have to hook up a computer to the USB port on the snapmaker and you have to connect it thru snapmakerJS and then send commands from the console over USB cable to the snapmaker to change the code.

Just a quick reminder to all: before typing “M1025 M1” in the console make sure that Snapmaker.js really sees your printer. Looks like it says “Connected to COMn” even if there’s something wrong with the connection. I’ve spent a pair of hours trying to send the command and checking everything befor…

Thanks for this thread, exactly the same issue I faced. As an extra note, I found that if you create a gcode for the taller print. Start the print, then stop (after the initial heating-up, but before printing), you can then verify the settings by using the Jog-Mode (over USB) and just keep increasi…

just had a similar problem. When I goto “About” in “Settings” on the actual Snapmaker little screen, it confirms in error the 125mm x 125mm x 125mm(Z Axis Extension Installed) Here are my confirmation pics [221MM%20SET]
