How to make shorter supports?

Is there any reason it is not possible to make the supports shorter than 3.5mm? I see no reason to waste printing-time making them taller than 1mm. Or is there a good reason for this limitation?

IWantToHelp - fep sources

Any thought to adding sources for non-photon branded FEP? In the US, the Anycubic brand FEP is 6x more expensive than offbrand, would be nice to get accounts from users successful with other brands.

I would post specific links, but I don't know if this is desired information or not. (Vendor stuff gets messy)

MonoX (Mono-x) raise height after job complete is very low

When the new MonoX completes a job, it raises the plate about 15-20mm.
That's not a lot. So after every job the user has to raise it manually on the touchscreen Very user UNfriendly.

Can the bed be raised to nearly the top just like the older Photons? Leaving plenty of working room?

365nm Light source for Anycubic photon

Anycubic light source uses a 405nm LED (visible range) . There are some printers that uses 365nm light source. It seems the light source for Anycubic can be replaced to 385nm so as allow use of other materials that are photo curable at 385nm. I am looking for such an alternative (light source). Is there any suggestions to guide me on this (light source selection and replacement). Thanks

Safety of Resins

I just sent the following question to MonoCure about the safety of their resin. The answer will be input for the safety page.

Hi, I am trying to read your datasheet but it keeps me wondering if it is save to use your resin inside my home.

I use it in an attic room (20 Celsius) inside a custom (laminar air flow) print enclosure which vents to the outside. Some odour does leak in the room when printing. (When opening the enclosure to remove the print and cleanup, I use a mask. The mask is a Skandia 1047454 Dual Half Mask with A1 filters. For cleanup I use ResinAway.)
When not printing, I keep the resin in the printing vat (in the enclosure) with an almost airtight lid laid on top.

I, my wife and son sleep one floor lower. Should I be worried?

system error anycubic photon the program can't start because api-ms-win-crt-runtime-

I have tried to install the system through the USB and through the website but both them results in the same error (image attached), also tried to uninstall and install again and nothing. Then tried the ChiTu DLP Slicer32 and also resulted at the same error.
I need help to identify the reason of the error and fix it. Is it the PC's configuration? What are the Software needs to run properly?

Firmware GCode Query

Good Afternoon,

With help from the documents on here I'm trying to decipher the firmware GCode settings in relation the the Z axis speed.

I have a query around M8015 and M8016 (mm/s speeds the buildplate moves up in slow phase / fast phase + down). In older firmwares, the values used are TXX, and in the newer ones PXX. Is there a difference between the T and P setting? The comments at the end of the newer version I can't translate, but appear to be defaults if value is 0?

Ultimately, I am trying to flash new timings to the Newer (PXX) version firmware, but am unsure whether to use P or T as I don't understand what the difference is.

Any help is appreciated

Thanks

new printer killed 3 Usb-Sticks

Hello photonsters,
I bought the photon a few days ago and i am new in the field of 3D-printing. The setup went well. However sometimes the touchscreen flickers and the included USB-Stick, as well as two of my own, were killed within minutes. At least i managed to print 1% of the photon.photon until my last USB-Stick was destroyed.
Is there any known issue or possibility to fix this easily or should I send it back (I don't want to risk my warranty)?
By the way I don't have facebook and can't see the comments in the group. Is there any possibility you can make the settings more liberal?
Thanks a lot for helping!

Off-time

I just upgraded my Photon to 4.2.18 SW.

When printing I now see that it moves the platform, exposes and then has the off-time.
I was expecting, move platform, off-time and then expose.

Is it just me or is it for everyone?

I made the .photon using original slicer, then editing it and changed exposure time in Photon File Validator. Now printing...

RERF files...

It would be keen if we could get the RERF files for each of the photon models. I lost my original USB drive and I don't have one for my original Photon.

LCD screen not functioning

Hi,

So I own an anycubic photon 3D printer. My screen star print my models with hole thought them and when I did a test the screen showed spots with black holes. I was advised to get a new screen do to the screen failing. So I went and got two ELEGOO 5.5 Inch 2K LCD. When I plugged it in it gave me two error codes T_100 and L_43. I do not know what L_43 is but I do know what the T_100. I then went and tried updating the firmware and to see if that help when that did not help I tried plugging in my back up that I got. When I installed I tried a screen test and it gave me a blank light square with no black square in the middle. I then tried to print something and got no error codes but nothing printed. If anyone has any idea how to fix this?
Any help in solving this problem would be grateful.

Thank you in advance

Consider splitting up the "cool models for testing" section

It would probably be more useful to split the Readme's "cool models for testing" section into two sections:

1. Calibration Models

This section would just have one or two standard calibration models that everyone tends to use for testing, and the second section would contain a list of links to sites like Thingiverse, CGTrader, TurboSquid and any other repositories of free or paid 3D-printable models.

2. Model Repositories

This would probably be of more general use than the current list which is a mix of calibration models, standard test pieces and just random other sculpts.

Everyone has a different definition of "cool" anyway 😄

UI personal Mod

Hi, my name is Max, I saw that you can change the UI of the Photon, I would like to try it too, but on the CBD website there is no longer the program to change the UI, is it possible to download it somewhere else? Thanks for the attention.

IWantToHelp

Hi,
here's more detailed description of chitu gcode settings - get them from Orbeat D100 distributor.
As i can see, D100 is using same board as Photon.
I've also connected external stepper driver - TMC2208. On board there are exposed soldering points for connecting external drivers.
Now i'ts silent - i suppose that on board is A4988.

Got also question - photon file editor.
can you make few improvements:

  1. better file opening - that open dialog is annoying - is possible to make something similar to windows open dialog ?
  2. can you add file types .cbddlp

cheers
bartek

heres what i've got from distributor.
Hope it helps

Non-standard use of the printer

Hello. I have a printer, ANYCUBIC PHOTON. I want to use it for more than just printing. Tell me if I can display an arbitrary image without using slicer (preferred image format *.BMP, or any other)? And turn on the lights for a few seconds?

FAQ request - curing

FWIW, I read through the FAQ and did not see any info on post-print curing boxes. Would like to learn about common OTS and DIY options, including info on LED wavelength and power. Thanks!

#IWantToHelp - Anycubic Photon Firmware <-> Chitubox slicer setting correlation experiment

#IWantToHelp

I ran an experiment to correlate Chitubox (v1.7.0) slicer settings with Anycubic Photon Firmware (4.2.19.3) behavior. I thought I'd share the results for others' benefit. Please insert the below in the repo in a place that makes sense to you.

Anycubic Photon Firmware <-> Chitubox slicer setting correlation experiment

I was scratching my head about what exactly the "settings" changed. I couldn't find satisfactory answers online, so I had to do an experiment.

###Method:
In Chitubox: put a model far off the build plate. Model is off the plate because I had resin in the vat, so I did't want it curing.
Make a bunch of .photon files with different combinations of settings; with file names like "E_50,2,2,5,0,0 15,10,65,65,150.photon"
Record video of running the first few layers of each file and go back and try to make sense of stuff.

###Results:
I'll try to list what I found, but first, the "anatomy" of a layer print on the Anycubic Photon. These are "instantaneous time points" I'll use later:

  1. Start Layer exposure
  2. Finish Layer exposure
  3. Start move slowly away from screen
  4. Start move quickly away from screen
  5. Start move quickly back toward screen
  6. Arrive at next layer Z
  7. Start Layer+1 exposure

Here is the settings screenshot for the file "E_50,2,2,5,0,0 15,10,65,65,150.photon":
Screen Shot 2020-12-29 at 15 17 13

I hope the "bottom" layer stuff is self explanatory; it's just special set of parameters for the first few (2 in this picture) layers. I didn't scrutinize the transition between bottom to normal layers.
One exception: "Bottom Light-off Delay" doesn't seem to do anything.

Here are the more difficult-to-understand (IMO) settings:

  • Light-off Delay: This is the time between time-points t2 and t7 above.
  • Lift(ing) Distance: This is the total Z distance traveled away from the screen between layers. It's traveled between time-points t3 to t5.
  • Lift(ing) Speed: This is the Z speed between time-points t3 and t4.
  • Retract Speed: This is the Z speed between time-points t4 and t6.

​Now I see the biggest source of my confusion: There is no setting for the distance traveled between time-points t3 and t4. It seems "hardcoded" at 2.5mm (my estimate).

I was messing with these settings because I can clearly hear the layer doesn't separate from FEP film in those 2.5mm. Now I see why my messing was in vain. I suspect there are M8xxxx gcodes for that distance. I'll start looking in Photonsters repo.

Updating from 4.2.17 to 4.2.18/9 causes LCD errors.

When I perform a UV test on 4.2.17 my Photon is fine. However, if I then update the firmware to 4.2.18/9 (Anycubic or Epax) the LCD begins to flicker whenever the UV test is performed. I have swapped USB sticks, tried updating multiple times.

How to control curing time for each layers independently?

I want to use two different resins. Cure one partially with one and then another with a different color. Since curing time for each resin is different, I need a way to control the curing height and curing time for each layer independently. I tried 010 Editor, but could only modify the height of each layer. Is there any hack for independent control of curing time and curing height?

Is there a way to level without touchscreen?

My touch screen is not working in right-down corner, so i can not press the "back" button and therefore level the bed. I hope there is an alternative way to do this

USB read issues

Hi

I just wanted to share my theory on the common USB read errors with some of the AnyCubic models.

I had issues where it would not read Lexar USB sticks at all and from what I gathered AnyCubic recommend using <8GB sticks, mine was 16GB.

But I don't actually believe it's the capacity itself as I have now got a SanDisk 16GB to work.

The reason I selected the SanDisk was due to having read an number of reports that the +5V line on the USB interface is sometimes relatively low and so I started to believe that there maybe a power delivery issue and SanDisk appears to have relatively low power consumption.

I think this is why <8GB is recommended and may often times work more reliably as it's likely got less power draw on average.

I'm not sure if we could figure out some mod to provide more reliable power delivery to the USB, or potentially use a USB drive that has external power supply (I've not tried this and it would be less convenient than a flash drive anyway).

Edit: I'm using a Photon Mono.

Measurements for the LED reflector

I found this group and have a similar DLP printer, the wanhao d7, which we have been upgrading but someone mentioned that some of our upgrades may also be useful for the Photon. Is there any chance you can take some pictures and measurements of the space and holes for the reflector for the UV led?

Thanks!

Downgrade from .19 to .18 issue

I have tried to downgrade from 4.2.19 to 4.2.18 but I can run the .18 bin OK while the .18 LCD gives me "Unknown file format". Is the LCD necessary given the fact I have installed already the .19 LCD?

New Firmware Version Avaliable

It would appear that there is a new firmware available for the photon, titled V1.1_20180720
The bin file is V22_89 compared to the current V22_83

Turning off touchscreen

Is anyone aware of any gcodes for turning off the touchscreen?

I'm working on a web-based controller for the Elegoo Mars (which often has similarities to the Photon). One of the things that I would like to be able to do is turn off the touchscreen - which seems to be on all the time even if I use M8085 T0 or M8085 T5 (the "screen saver time" command, which just makes the printer show the logo as a "screen saver").

How can I test the serial STT via the shell? I see the ttys under / dev / serial.

Is:
GND and RX2 and TX2 the right connect?

Or should I take GND RX1 and TX1?

In the first step I just want to see if I can query something via the serial UART port.

Thank you.

LCD screen flickering

The LCD screen on my photon has started flickering. I tried reconnecting the wire and updating the firmware but neither have worked.

FAQ Vat Tightening issue

I believe the post intends to say KHz rather than Hz. 150 - 350 Hz is the basic frequency range of a bass guitar. The snap of a snare drum falls much higher in the frequency range.

Printer doesn't seem to detect the file Update.LCD

Hello everyone,

Anyone has any idea why the printer wouldn't update the firmware when it starts, we even tried to manually update the firmware by printing the .bin file but it doesn't work.
We tried with these two versions of the firmware :
Photon_firmware_4.2.17_beta
Photon_firmware_4.2.14
none of them is working so far, our current firmware version is : V4.2.0_LCD.0 /1440x2560 /F2.7
