1. Check Power Supply
The power supply unit and control board of A10 are installed in the bottom of the printer, saving space, as
well as lowering the gravity center of the printer to provide stable support for printing. The printer uses
DC24V, 15A power supply.
2. Software Resources
2.1 Repetier-Host
The Repetier-Host is a simple to use host software, which is be compatible with most firmware. You can add
and position your STL files on the simulated print bed and slice them all together. For slicing you can use
the built-in Slic3r slicer. Just call "Slice & Load" and the job gets delegated to the current slicer, showing its
output in the log window.
Download the Repetier host V 2.1.2 here.
For detailed information of Repetier Host please refer to our wiki.
For detailed using methods of the slicing software, slic3r, which comes with Repetier Host, please also refer
to our wiki.
2.2 Arduino IDE
The open-source Arduino Software (IDE) makes it easy to write code and upload it to the board. It runs on
Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. The environment is written in Java and based on Processing and other
open-source software.
This software can be used with any Arduino board.
