XY-Plotter V2.0 - not drawing correctly


#1

I bought this product and assembled everything correctly. However when I sent the sample files using Gremote, the drawing came out differently and very small as seen in the attached file. Please help ! Thank you.


#2

I had similar problems with the v1.0 plotter kit. I solved them by tightening the belts (and the wheels that turn the belts!) and by providing it with 12V (instead of 9V with six AA batteries).

Hope this helps,
paul

Hi @maohong30,

Sorry for this error,

  1. We have update the software, please download it again.

  2. Please check the two screws which used to fix the pencil, make sure you have made them tight.
  3. Please refer to the A4988 wiki to adjust the DIP switches of two stepper drivers. It will help the plotter draw bigger pictures http://wiki.makeblock.cc/index.php?title=Me_Stepper_Driver#DIP_switch_setting_introduction
  4. Please refer to the advice of Mr @paulcobbaut, tightening the belts.
  5. Please check the “Setting” in Gremote.bat, it would be set as the picture below,
