Run Startup Script. This entry launches

the startup script. The Startup Script runs

automatically the ﬁrst time you power on

the MakerBot Replicator 2X. The Startup

Script walks you through the steps for

leveling your build plate, loading ﬁlament

into the right extruder, and printing from

the SD card. To exit the Startup Script,

press the le arrow button. You will not

be able to exit the Startup Script until the

leveling portion of the script begins.

Disable Steppers/Enable Steppers.

This entry allows you to toggle on and

o the stepper motors that move the

extruders and build platform. If you need

to manually move the build platform or

the extruders, you must ﬁrst disable the

stepper motors.

Blink LEDs/Stop Blinking. This

entry allows you to toggle on and o

blinking. When toggled on, the LEDs in

the MakerBot Replicator 2X will start

blinking. When toggled o, the LEDs in the

MakerBot Replicator 2X will stop blinking.

Calibrate Nozzles. This entry launches

a script that allows the MakerBot

Replicator 2X to correctly locate the two

extruder nozzles. Use this script if your

dual extrusion prints don’t appear to line

up correctly on the plate. The script will

print a series of lines with each nozzle

and ask you to choose the ones that line

up best. Your MakerBot Replicator 2X will

store that information and use it to make

your dual extrusion prints align better in

the future.
