Firmware link: https://github.com/NARUTOfzr/Neptune_3
Download method: As shown like the pic
Files description
Preparation
- Format the TF card. File system: FAT32 Allocation unit size: 4096 bit
- Copy the two files into the root directory of the TF card
Screen firmware update
-
As shown like pic 1, disassemble the back shell.
-
Pay attention to the plug location, insert the TF card.
-
Reboot the power, wait until the firmware finish loading. The interfaceshows like below after the firmware loads.(Screen firmware update time: around70s)
Motherboard firmware update
Insert the TF card into the machine. Reboot the power, wait until the
firmwarefinish loading. The interface shows like pic3 when the firmware is
loading. It will enter the interface like pic4 once the firmware is
updated.
Remind:
If the leveling fails or the homing fails, please try to restart the power or choosetorestore the factory settings in the settings. The leveling grid data will be cleared after a factory reset and must be re-leveled.
Leveling Temperature Recommendations:
Hot end temperature: 0 ℃
(in order to avoid fan rotation and temperature affecting the leveling
accuracy)
Hot bed temperature:
the temperature required by the filament +5 °C
(To avoid the leveling effect due to the thermal deformation of the hot bed)
Board firmware
Update log：
20220616：
- Added the setting item of leveling temperature. You can customize the levelingtemperature in the Settings.
Reminder: At present, the Z-offset value set during printing will not be savedtoEEPROM (Z-offset data will be lost after power off or power failure, and Z-offset needs to be adjusted again when printing next time). Solution: You can save the EEPROM by heading to 【Settings】→【Temperature】→ 【Leveling Temperature】, clicking 【Save】 in the upper right corner of after printing is ‘completed or canceled’, so that the set Z-offset will be saved totheEEPROM.
20220711:
Improved leveling method.
20220816:
- Fixed some discovered bugs. Optimize the leveling speed and return to the originspeed.
- During the printing process, click 【Pause】 or “Break Detection” to detect a breakin the filament, the extruder will pump back 6mm to avoid the filament leakage issueafter the pause. At the same time, when you click 【Resume】after the pause, theextruder will advance 6mm in the original printing position, so if you replacethefilament, please do not insert it directly into the nozzle position.
- To solve the problem that the Z-offset adjusted during printing will not be saved：During printing, click 【stop】→【confirm】 or click 【confirm】after printingis completed, the Z-offset value will be saved automatically.
