    I recently received my new Robo 3d and have it working wellJ. My question is; it came with a sd card slot but I can’t seed to get it to run independently from the computer? Is there a way to start a file from the computer and then have it run off the card in the Robo 3d? Basically I want to know if I can run a file and not have to keep the computer attached to it? If so can you tell me how or direct me to some instructions?

    Just did the bed upgrade on mine today (and it had the SD card adapter) and was wondering the same things.
    I am not sure what/how that works.

    If no answer I will experiment with it tomorrow and let you know.

    Rumor has it the next MC will have it, this one doesn't.

    Repetier Host has the option for it though.

    I can attest that Simplify3D sees and can use the SD card as well.
    Pause/resume even works with it if you are attached.
