15. Software “Repetier Host”

a) General Notes on Software

It is unfortunately not possible to explain the complete function of the enclosed software in the scope of this instruction. For this,

we refer to the integrated online help function and the information on www.repetier.com.

The basic operation and the path to the ﬁrst printout are, however, described below to that you can get a result quickly and

easily.

The enclosed SD card holds a custom version of the software that contains the printer settings and conﬁguration ﬁles

for the RF1000 in the folder “Repetier-Host”. We urgently recommend to install the custom version of the software since

then you do not need to conﬁgure the software and the required drives are already installed as well.

Conﬁguration of the software and driver installation are explained below in the Annex to these instructions for the

sake of completeness. However, the software only needs to be conﬁgured if you install the basic version of the soft

ware from www.repetier.com. The conﬁguration ﬁles required for this are enclosed on the included SD card in the

folder “Slic3r Settings”.

If you have already installed a previous basic version of the software, the old version can be uninstalled and the cu

stom version can be newly installed. The slicer settings of the previous version are not deleted and reappear in the

custom version.

The software Repetier-Host performs the following tasks:

• Placement of the 3D-object to be printed on the printing plate.

• Slicing of the object to be printed into thin layers that the 3D printer can print out layer for layer. The result of this process is a

G-Code ﬁle.

• Review

of the G-Code ﬁles for error and printability.

• Sending the G-Code ﬁles to the printer or saving on an SD card for standalone print.

• Monitoring the 3D printer in operation.

• Setting and storage of printer and ﬁlament-speciﬁc data.

b) Installation

• Install the ﬁle “setupRepetierHost_RF1000_3D_x_xx.exe” from the directory “Repetier-Host” from the SD-card (x_xx designates

the software version here).

For the installation of the custom version of the software the user has to be registered as an administrator. Otherwise the

necessary conﬁguration ﬁles and printer settings won´t be installed.

• Alternatively, the installation ﬁle for the basic version of the software can also be downloaded from www.repetier.com. There,

MacOS X- and LINUX versions of this software are oered as well.

Prerequisites for installing under Windows:

Microsoft

.Net Framework 4 must be installed on the computer. This software can be downloaded free of charge from

www.microsoft.com.

The further system requirements for installation of Repetier-Host (also for other operating systems) are found on www.

repetier.com.

Updates for Repetier-Host are regularly published under www.repetier.com. Updates of the custom version can be found

on www.conrad.com in the download area on the product page of the 3D-printer.
