Re: Downside to running fans from a buck converter? 24V Upgrade

I disabled my control box fans and the noise was just as bad. I had not noticed that the relay had an active cooling fan running on it! It was damn near breaking off it's mount. lol After stripping it down I found that it is also 12v. Thank goodness I bought quite of few of those handy buck converte...

Re: GTM32 Mini S WiFi Pinouts.

Hello. I think this topic has been raised before, but I don't remember the details. If you don't find anything on the forum, it remains to read the MCU pinout, and test the connections with a multimeter. But remember: In order for new equipment to work with the printer, the firmware must support it...

GTM32 Mini S WiFi Pinouts.

Does anyone know what the pinouts are for the wifi module connection on the GTM32 Mini S? I have looked on the schematics and it is not mentioned. I would like to attach a ESP82266 module to it.

Re: Downside to running fans from a buck converter? 24V Upgrade

I want to do the same thing, upgrade to 24v 600w PSU. Will I have to change to 12v case fans that run off the Mini S control board or is the output voltage controlled by the board? TIA

Re: Settings and Control windows are too small

I am getting the same thing. Only the very top part of the boxes are showing but they do respond when you click on them.
No text is showing in the part boxes.
