Cura LulzBot Edition
Temperature Control and Monitoring
In the temperature control and monitoring section you can select each hot
end’s temperature and the bed temperature. By selecting the“Preheat”
buttons with no temperature dened in the boxes, it will automatically set
the temperature to whatever is currently set in the quality prole. If you
would like to set a custom temperature, that number can be entered into
the box and select preheat.
The temperature graph below the preheat options will report your
current hot end and bed temperatures.
Active Print
The active print area will report statistics on the status of the current
print job. This reports the File Name, Time Printed, Estimated Time
Remaining, and Final Print Time. Cura LE uses acceleration and jerk
settings to estimate the print time, be sure to update the stock settings if
you have modied your rmware.
Manual Control
The manual control section will allow you to Connect to your 3D printer,
control movement in all axes, heat all components, and send custom gcode
commands directly to the machine. When your printer is plugged in to your
computer and powered on the connect, disconnect, and console buttons
become available.
Connect, Disconnect, Console
• The connect button will allow you to communicate with and control
your 3D printer. All commands in the Monitor Tab will require you
to be connected before the printer will respond.
• The Disconnect button will terminate the connection with the
current machine.
• The Console button will open a window that monitors communi-
cation between Cura LE and your 3D printer. This console can
also be used to send custom gcode commands to your printer. See
