    Software: S3D v4.0.0.
    Printer ROBO3D R1+
    After updating S3D to 4.0.0. , when I attempt to print the z-axis starting going up and will continue until I press emergency stop. I upgraded the firmware to V2 on the printer and attempted the print again with the same result z-axis continually goes up.

    Make sure both of the Z axis limit switches are under the left and right side arms and that both are depressed.

    Well, I finally got a chance to look at the switches. I found the left side was not touching and the right side was touching. I found the nut on the right side had twisted just enough to not be properly seated. Loosen the bolt that clamps the switch and turned to reseat.

    Thanks Waldo
