Shutdown & Reset Procedures
Do not switch off the power supply to turn off your MakerGear M3. There
are two ways to properly shut it down:
1. Navigate to your printer’s OctoPrint interface and click the power
button icon. Next, click “Shutdown system,” then, “Proceed.” Wait a few
moments for your M3’s Raspberry Pi to shut down. Once the Raspberry
Pi’s green light has turned off, it is safe to switch off your M3’s power
supply.
2. To manually shut down your M3, hold down the reset button for 10
seconds before letting go. You will hear a series of tones indicating that
your printer has a) started the shutdown procedure and b) nished the
shutdown procedure.
1. Disconnects your printer from its current network and returns it to
Access Point mode (AP mode).
2. Resets the access point network name/password to its original factory
state.
3. Resets your OctoPrint username/password to its original factory state.

control electronics. The manual reset button should not be used while your
M3 is printing, unless you wish to stop the printer as quickly as possible.

board.
• Holding down the reset button for more than 60 seconds before releasing
will begin the system reset process. This should only be done in special
circumstances, such as when passwords are irretrievable. The system
reset performs the following operations:
