Mine kept shutting down around 7-8 hours in on a print. They told me the same thing on the USB C cable. I got a 100w data with the 90deg connections off of Amazon, and I’m 21 hours in on a 36hr print. You should put some air over the cooling fins on the drivers. They’re probably hot to the touch, and most likely getting more power than they need. Mine were set pretty high especially on hold current.
@@bobabbott8370 that’s great. I put that cable I found on Amazon in and did the same with the update and ran a 35hr print with no problems. They did send me a cable but I needed to print a large ABS print before it got here, which amazes me they can send a part out of China and I get it in 4 days and it takes 2 days for USPS to get something across town.
I’ve been having the same issue, but on an Ender 5 Plus since the last Klipper update. I’m thinking they shipped with that version. Hadn’t had it powered on in a week or two and it seems everything had new versions pushed. So I’m upgrading. Qidi have their Klipper locked down, but they likely have a new firmware version for you to install that might fix your issues
Who knows what is going on. ...they have said it was the firmware...and the last failure was after a 30 hours into a 55 hour print and now they say it is the SD card they supplied was not compatible with the new firmware....
@@bobabbott8370 maybe they mean the sd card format. That’s an easy fix. I would ask them to specify exactly why the sd card isn’t compatible. It being say exFat and needing to be Fat32 would be understandable, and as I said easily fixable. But the firmware should be being updated over the internet. Klipper is run in Linux and it shouldn’t need an sd card to upgrade, unless the firmware is for the literal Motor Control board and not the basically a Raspberry pi that controls the motors control board. If it’s the motor control board then yeah I’ve heard of that when they have screens attached, and have to be flashed over usb. Yes it’s very convoluted, but that’s because everything was designed to run Marlin and then Klipper came along to take all the heavy lifting off of the motor control boards plate. No one is making control boards specifically for Klipper yet. Yay bleeding edge
It has the metal rods so I think it is the latest. The new cable and a firmware update took care of the error. The benchy came out better than I have seen on my Bambus and other QIDi printers I own.
@@bobabbott8370 that's reassuring! How was your z leveling experience? I'm a bit new in they're these and I really want to try and use a feeler gauge but I'm not so sure the setup will allow it easily.

Thanks for the heads up..
Ultimately a firmware update and the cable fixed it....all seems to be rock solid now.

Is your model the new one with all the fixes and steel not carbon fiber? If so how's it holding up, and how does jut stack up to their 600mm/s claim?

the supplied "Calibrated" paper card is very easy to use and calibrate. Once set, it is very stable.
