'''Clench Valves''' require the primary head to have firmware [http://hyrel3d.net/downloads/firmware/CVFW-35K-49V.rar 49V] installed, so that the clench valve is activated (instead of primes/unprimes). Download and flash per instructions above.

−
Use '''_TUBES_49V.hex''' :
 
−
* For all emulsion heads using Clench Valves instead of prime/unprime actions.
 
−
* For all emulsion heads using COD LED activity tied to printing moves only.
 
−
 
−
Use '''_FIL_250_PLAT_1A.hex''' :
 
−
* For MK1-250 and MK2-250 heads.
 
−
* For heated emulsions heads which don't seem to reach max temperature.

=== Installing Drivers ===
 
−
 
−
If, for some reason, you re-OSed or re-imaged your PC, or are installing on a new PC (or your local IT people made some changes preventing you from connecting to the printer), you will need to ensure that the proper drivers are in place. AFTER you have done the install above:
 
−
 
−
1. Run: '''C:\repetrel\ST-LINK Utility\Windows 8 Compatibility Resolver.bat'''
 
−
 
−
2. Right-Click and RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR: '''C:\repetrel\DfuSe\Driver\dpinst_x86.exe''' (or other appropriate file if on another architecture); Click to ALLOW this program to run.
 
−
 
−
Now, in Devices and Printers, you should see the '''FT232R USB UART''' without any alert icon. Congratulations!

The Repetrel download will install the Repetrel software (release 2.865) as well as the firmware for your 407 Motion Controller and your 103 Print Head and Hot Bed Controllers. This install must be carried out per the instructions below, so that Repetrel and its dependent resources will be found in the expected locations.

A video giving a quick overview is available at: https://youtu.be/VMyS3h4qiSA

A video showing the actual upgrade process is available at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n4QwiuQtjO0

On new (clean) installs, you MUST run Slic3r.exe BEFORE launching Repetrel. Configure it to run in expert mode, then exit.

Installing Repetrel

  1. Download http://hyrel3d.net/downloads/repetrel/Repetrel_2.865.rar This contains:
    1. Repetrel 2.865
    2. 407 Motion Controller firmware 2.415 (reports back as 2.415)
    3. 103 PH/HB Controller firmware (see next table)
  2. Extract the contents
  3. Rename previous C:/repetrel to C:/repetrel.old (or similar)
  4. Move your extracted repetrel directory to C:/repetrel

Software upgrade complete. Occasionally a user will have to point existing shortcuts to the new executible, C:/repetrel/bin/repetrel.exe
