THIS PAGE IS A PLACHOLDER.

VERSION 3 IS NOT YET AVAILABLE TO THE MASSES.

Contact is if you have an issue with your present install.

Install instructions are essentially the same as for v2, but remember to:

Go to Settings > Printer and load the latest config for your model; and
Flash the Motion Controller with the latest HYREL file (ESR adn 30M), or HYDRA file (EHR and Hydra).

This page has instructions for installing the latest Repetrel software and associated applications, drivers, and environment on a new Windows platform, or over an older install.

Preliminary Steps

Save any files that you want to keep, especially gcode and stl files. Recipes will be saved.
This includes your Printer Settings file:
- For a new install, ignore this.
- For a 2>3 upgrade, ignore this.
- For a 3>3 upgrade, go to Settings > Printer and save your configuration to a file with a name unique to your environment (example: Acme_Lab_West), so that we can easily find it later. Save a copy of this file to your desktop for now.

These steps should each be done in order, and run as administrator.
