Can anyone explain to me exactly what to click to download the resin exposure file from the photonster github page...

I don't understand github at all ?

Please stop using the spreadsheet exposure settings and learn to use the exposure test appropriate for your machine.

The spreadsheet figures vary wildly and have caused a lot of issues of late. The figures quoted probably worked for the person who posted them but they are highly specific!

Use the appropriate exposure test to calculate your specific exposure requirements for your machine in your specific location. If you get exposure related failures or conditions change run the test again to see if it's still right.

Blindly copying someone else's settings is like asking how hard they push the accelerator in their car, copying that and expecting to go the same speed. It can be a vauge guide only at best.

Edit: This is the the original Photon:
https://github.com/…/photon-resin-cal…/blob/master/README.md

If you have an S or other model you are going to have to do a bit of work yourself to find the exposure test ;)

First print complete! Leveled as the manual describes and everything came out pretty great. The docs on github were so great to get printing right away. Only issue is the support yanked a few pieces off the bottom when I was clipping it off. You live and you learn!

Hi... Somebody could advise on how to -step by step- interpret these results (both pictures are the same only difference is flash). On GitHub and thingiverse there is no column multiplier for this test, nor clear instructions. Thanks!

Just bought and started using a photon S. I notice that the github knowledge base only deals with the photon, anyone got a link for a photon S page, (resin cure tables ect) my search-fu is weak today.
Also I notice that alot of prints are pictured sliced at an angle, is this
A - an artifact of the slicer
B - so the print fits in the bath
C - to reduce suction force when the bed lifts. Reducing the chance of a failed print
???

Hey guys, quick question. I'm having a Z- Axis issue. I'm going through the troubleshooting on the Photonsters github and had a question for the group. Anyone know where I can get a motherboard at a decent price? I bought the printer for $100 used so I feel like paying $100 for a replacement motherboard is a bit of a poor choice. But let's hope I don't have replace it and it's just an EEPROM issue. Thanks in advance guys!

Resolved: I cannot use gcode files with the Fauxton. =/

I am attempting to run the resin exposure finder. I downloaded it from Github. I have a standard Photon running Firmware V5.0.2. When I put the GCODE files in the base directory (as pictured) the printer cannot see the files to print. I feel like I'm missing something obvious, because the directions make it seem obvious. I should just be able to insert the flash drive and print the GCODE files, right?

Hey all, new to the group and new to my photon s. I think I've been having exposure issues, where I'm just not getting the detail I think I should be getting on my prints. I tried using the exposure finder on github, but when I try to run the g-code from my usb drive, it isn't showing any of the test files, only the files I've sliced with the photon slicer. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Hey everyone. I've tried searching online, searching this group, searching github, praying to the gods, and I am still at a loss.

All I want to do is use Anycubic transparent yellow resin with my Photon S. The photon S spreadsheet doesnt have yellow on it at all. I tried the settings from the Photon spreadsheet, but they didnt work.

I was able to successfully print the Photon S exposure test from github, but I cant figure out how to convert that to settings. I've included photos of the exposure test I used. I was previously told I just need to "double the column"... But how do you get the column number? Its not on the actual print, and the preview file shows 5 on every segment. Am i missing something? Are there instructions out there for _this_ exposure test?

(P.S.Please be kind to the noob. I know this is a user group and not a help group. I've really, really tried to figure this out on my own, but i dont want to waste a bottle of resin because I cant pin down the Damn settings.)

Greetings. Having had my Photon for a couple of month now, and having had successful prints and failed prints, I’m feeling a bit more confident and wanting to get the correct settings for my exposure rather than take defaults or work by trial and error. I’ve read the resin-xpfinder from GitHub and just want to make sure I have understood the instructions correctly. It looks like I have to change the config of the printer , print my resin test, and then return the printer to ‘print’ mode. Can u pls tell me if I have got this correct...

Step 1) load the file ‘test-mode.gcode’ onto the USB stick and run it (by selecting from the screen on the printer.
Step 2) run my exposure test file , resin-test-xxx from the USB stick
Step 3) Return the printer to print mode by running print-mode.gcode from the USB stick

Have I got this correct ?
Is there any chance my printer will not return to its present state when I bring it back to print mode ?

Thanks in advance
