knob scroll doesn't work

Post by Dr_Arsenic »

Hi all!

I bought ressently an unassembled prusa i3 X and I'm really happy with it ! ;) I went throught the building and I got nice print already without big trouble. 8-)
There is only one thing that bother me is the knob :roll: . It's doesn't scroll very well meaning that I need to turn it multiple times to scroll one line down (or up) on the screen. The press option works fine, it's only the scroll. I saw that somebody got almost the same problem which seems to come from bad soldering. I'm not sure to be qualify enough to check that. Is there any other possibilities for that error ? :?:

All ideas are welcome !

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I already reload the firmware since I had to change the direction of x axis motor. I don't know if I'm doing it again it will change something.

Hi,

I still have no improvment of the knob even after firmware reloading. Is there anything else I could do ? Should I change the board ?

You're right, I will try to change the LCD panel. However I'm not sure which one to buy (I have the Prusa I3 X). I found only those two (http://www.geeetech.com/reprap-lcd2004- ... p-714.html,http://www.geeetech.com/reprap-ramps-v1 ... p-615.html) with the LCD2004 display but the controller doesn't seems to be the same. Can you advise me ?

Can you advise me ?
