SD cardreader and firmware

Something happens when i change my SD card on the printer. I use a microSD to SD card adapter and if i let the adapter stay in the printer and just pull out the microsd part and then put it in after im done with it from my computer. The firmware flips out (not every time however, chance about 50%!!!). The display starts showing jibberish signs instead of the normal status page. Restart of printer solv it. Dont know if anyone else have this happening to them but if i pull the entire SD adapter out and then put it in with the microSD this does not seam to happen.

It didnt happen at all in the begining it have started the last couple of days now.

I think there’s a clip in the SD card reader (at least by a Raspberry Pi, I think that’s the same with the Vertex) that checks if there’s a SD inserted in the printer.
When you only remove the microSD, the clip stays closed an the printer tries to access the SD card.

Didnt think of that :slight_smile: Thx Dylan. Going to have a look at it.

That would be the same switch used on the K8095 see this link

I would think all SD card slots have them.

The printer does not sense when you change SD cards. You need to manually use the CHANGE SD CARD option in the menu when you changed your SD card. It will then check for new files.

Was just toying around in the firmware and noticed as @VEL327 say is for some reason the #define SDCARDDETECT -1 in the firmware settings is disabled. Wonder if the hardware have a detect pin for it. As a addtion im a litle confused that my printer react the way it does doing the procedure in the original first post.
