Ugh. Last night I had a print going overnight for 9 hours to wake up and hear “beep beep beep” and print at 92% complete... T_88 error... reboot try to re print = T_100 error.. looks like I need to open machine up and check cable? I didn’t install any new firmware etc (including recent AA thing).. going to look this afternoon if machine shipped with appropriate size Allen screw or whatever to open the bottom up and check the lcd ribbon connection. When running the UV test instead of getting a strip of light around screen the entire screen lights up? Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I’ve only had my machine for 2 months or so and haven’t used it a whole heck of a lot since. Was about to message support before moving on further

I had to replace the LCD. When I run the UV test i get result you can see on the photo below - thwre is a part of the rectangle visible on the left side of the screen. Dry run on a photon file that worked well previously gives similar result - the image seems to be shifted to the right a bit and „wrapped around” the screen. Any ideas on how I can correct this?

Noob question. Once you have sliced a file into photon format. Then run it through the validator. If u need to add support how csn u do it without starting again ? Anycubic software when I open I csn only see an LCD viewer. Chitubox crashes as file is too big ?! Any ideas what im doing wrong

Photon Newbie since 24H !

Hello Makers :)
I would share my first experience with my Photon arrived yesterday morning.

Just to introduce myself, having 2 FDM printers and playing since 2 years. My Hobby is figurine and tabletop.

So... My choice was on Photon and not Photon S because of the long experience YOU have here and different existing software and price is low (and for the difference, i can have more resin bootleS)

Photon arrived in V4.2.3_LCD.0/F2.5 and i upgraded it to V4.2.17_LCD/F2.7 immediatly lol.
Ajusting Z Offset more easier than on FDM... (Except my Delta with AutoLevel :P )

1st Print:
I used the ChiTuBox with AA 8X and put a part + AutoSupport > Skin Anycubic Resin => Disaster... In fact, I did not take care of settings in slicer.

2nd Print:
Listen yours voices and just print the sample Cube => Wooh !! Really cool :) (Even if not crystal clear)

3rd Print and up to now:
Using the spreadsheets > Set better settings for Skin color > Printed a Ring and after 2 tabletop

Now: Tried to print the Orc but something went wrong with support.
Would be happy if you can put a link for better settings or How-To regarding Supports.

So... I'm in south of France and we have lot of Sun except today lol.... so, my prints remain soft for the moment and i ordered a little UV lamp in case of.
I read a lot on this group and thank you so much for sharing Good & Bad issue to permit me to learn.
I was really surprised when i can listen to the "Ploc" sound when bed is moving Up&Down but i read than it's a good sound for DLP.

Sharing some pics... Happy to be here.
This Photon is an incredible printer.
I would recommend it to start Resin at reasonnable cost & for the big family you are.

Have Fun !

Is this a fep tensioning issue? They usually all print fine. I re-tuned my fep to 320 hz earlier today as it reduced out of itsself for some reason.. Build plate is levelled, LCD works fine.

Ok, guys... My saga of failed printer continues =(

Still having the reboot problem...

I previously posted about my printer getting to the first layer, then rebooting. I was told to first try updating the firmware so I did just that. The firmware that I put on was:

V4.2.5_LCD.0/1440x2560/F2.6 (System: Photon 5.5)

I releveled (paper method), then decided to try to dry print the STL that it failed on. It ran through the motions perfectly.

Today, I decided to try to print the same STL (only thing I modified is the supports and base exposure time after doing some education on those topics).

The print got to the first layer, beeped twice, then did the first layer again. It did this for maybe three attempts (try a layer, beep twice, repeat) when the printer shut off and turned back on again.

I left the machine on, in that state, while I removed the build plate and vat for cleaning. During my cleaning, the printer rebooted yet again (it had been sitting idle the whole time).

What do I do next? I'm not really enjoying my experience, so far =/

What does the ".LCD" file do that was included in the AA firmware update?

What is the fastest anyone has changed a Photon screen? It just took me 32 minutes and I didn't put any of the bottom-side screws in because they kept on falling off the driver since they are recessed. Also I had to raise half of the main board to access the LCD connector and also because the ribbon cable slide onto the wrong side of the board. Probably another 10-15 minutes if I wanted all of the screws put back.

I changed my EPAX in 8.5 minutes because it is just four normal screws on the bottom, and the connector for the LCD is more out in the open.

This LCD lasted 800.7 hours. It was dying for a while but I could work around the dead pixels until now.

Just kind of a generic LCD printing question for the hive mind - any idea what causes this? Under supported? Thanks!
