WIFI SD Card for 3D Printer (FlashForge Creator Pro 2016)

thingiverse

2019 04 07 CyberDuck WARNING !!!!!!!! Today I made a mistake with an update of CyberDuck and it was impossible to access my Toshiba WIFI Sd card. After many attempts, I finally found the problem. It's not the WIFI Sd Card that's causing the issue but rather the version of CyberDuck. On Mac, the last good one is Cyberduck-6.3.2.27291.zip. You can go to the ChangeLog webpage to find the correct version: https://cyberduck.io/changelog/ 2017 12 13 WPA2-PSK/AES not supported I tried to switch from WPA to WPA2-PSK/AES on my internet box, but it seems that the Toshiba WIFI SD Card doesn't support this encryption. It works with WPA2-PSK/TKIP. Maybe this will help some of you. 2017 09 22 : update http access area (Thanks SCHACHUE for your comment) In my example, I don't have an APPNAME line, so the default HostName is FlashAir on my SDCARD, not FlashForge. In my DHCP server, I assigned a fixed IP address to it. On my computer (PC and MAC), I added a new line in the HOST file to fix the IP address to FlashForge name. I don't like waiting for name resolution! 2017 05 21 : Mac OS support To easily manage your WIFI SD Card, just download CyberDuck from the original link: https://cyberduck.io/?l=en. You'll find the full settings in the PNG file. Be cautious and select the correct WebDAV access (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning). The other one won't work. Just drag and drop your 3D files, and this software will copy them for you. You can create directories, delete files, and more. If you like it, consider purchasing it. Note: I haven't tested it on Windows because it works flawlessly on Win10. 2017 02 21 : New ! my tutorial to help you with the settings I'm not a Toshiba support! It's difficult for me to assist you if you have issues because it worked smoothly from the start. Download the Tuto FlashAir.zip file (27MB uncompressed), which includes lots of screenshots! After discussing this with DrLex, I purchased a Toshiba FlashAir WIFI 8GB card for my FlashForge Creator Pro 2016. Note: The STL file won't create a WIFI SD Card! The new model (w-03 with firmware v3) can easily establish a WIFI link between your FlashForge Creator Pro 2016 and computer using the WebDAV protocol. Don't buy the W-02 model; it doesn't work. The price was 20€ on the 4th of January in Amazon.fr, but now it's 28€! Make a copy of the default settings before! Use the FlashAir.exe software to configure the card to connect to your home network (freebox_xxxxx). Just modify the \SD-WLAN\CONFIG file by adding WEBDAV=2 and add a directory "3D" to store your 3D Files. Then, you can add a network access in your computer. Sorry I'm using a French Win10Pro, so the translation won't be the same on Windows 10. On win10 -> This PC -> Connect a network drive. Use the last line "Connect to a web site..." and follow the next steps. Enter: http://FlashForge/3D (with FlashForge = Your APPNAME, not your APPSSID). Alternatively, you can add or delete files from your computer and use them in real-time without rebooting your 3D printer! I'm unsure if this will work on all 3D Printers. As I know, the WIFI will be activated if you have a real support for the SD-HC card reader (a pin is used to provide power to the WIFI). The WIFI is active after a very short time! Here's a copy of the CONFIG file: [Vendor] CIPATH=/DCIM/100__TSB/FA000001.JPG APPMODE=6 APPNETWORKKEY=** VERSION=FA9CAW3AW3.00.00 CID=02544d535730384731c2f5d67900f101 PRODUCT=FlashAir VENDOR=TOSHIBA APPSSID=FlashForge LOCK=1 WEBDAV=2 TIMEZONE=4 DNSMODE=1 BRGSSID=freebox_xxxxx BRGNETWORKKEY=**** APPAUTOTIME=300000 Contact me if you need help configuring it!
