Installation manual BMG for Creality CR-10 V1.0 9
Software Configuration
As the new extruder uses a gear reduction to create a high extrusion resolution and
high torque the E-step value needs to be changed. The E-step value tells the printer
how many steps to send to the motor for each mm of filament.
Using original firmware
If you are using the original firmware on your printer you will have to add the
following line to the start script so it will set the new E-step value to 415.
M92 E415
This is the standard start script for Creality CR-10 in Simplify3D
