I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. But Iv build a frame. Gone through the calibration process a couple times and nothing is working.
Says it’s ready to cut but can’t even get it to jog. Clicked home and it just unwound the belts.
Iv tried attaching a video of what it’s doing but won’t let me do anything over 8mb.
Just keeps restarting the fitness saying it’s to low.
Sam
Can you try following along with this video and see where what you are seeing is different than what is in the video?
Iv tried following that about 10 times so far.
So frustrating. I’m uk based so this is taking forever to get sorted with the time difference. It’s better today but when I try and calibrate the bottom belts don’t go tense. They stay slack.
I still get the restarting fitness constant scrolling message in the code.
Just says calculated fitness to low. It’s a Maslow 4 and just upgraded the firmware. This is the first time using it since it arriving last August. Something isn’t right. !!!
Can you please help? I can’t see anything I’m doing wrong.
Iv got it set up vertically and the sled keeps falling off the bottom. This thing is seriously not right.
It does the frame flex. But only seems to do it once not twice then all the belts extend and crunch together. !!!
The bottom 2 belts are almost fully extending during calibration. It’s almost perfectly centre when I hang it on the frame. Then it runs calibration and completely goes off the ply.
All I keep doing is exactly what your video says but it’s not working!!!
This sounds to me like the machine thinks that it’s in horizontal mode. It’s not expecting gravity to be pulling down on it like that which is why it goes off the bottom.
Can you double check the setting for horizontal vs vertical mode is correct?
Also check the Maslow orientation, the power to the maslow board must be coming out in a down direction. I had a similar problem when I mounted mine vertically and had the power pointing up. I also have a 240V router..
I think this is it!! My wires are pointing upwards!
Il try it in the morning. Fingers crossed!
I did make sure a couple times it was vertical. I think Ian’s right with the board being upside down. Thinks the bed is upside down.
so this looks to have sorted it not falling off the board. but i am still getting fitness to low scrolling messsage keeps restarting. any advice? @bar ?

what should the fitness be?
@bar @ian_ab so it looks like the calibration is better now. i did a full rest and new index and maslow.yaml file
its running through the fitness which is now around 0.6 but its at fitness figure in 70000 how many times does it do it? it hasnt restarted but seems to be going on for a long time?
ITS ALIVE!!! finally after lots of troubleshooting its working. !! main problem was the board and the maslow and index files i think. thank you everyone for the help!
Great, have fun with it now. Glad to be able to help
