Safety Limits

Safety limits are guard rails on temperature setpoints and emergency commands. They are not a substitute for firmware safety features, but they help prevent accidental app-side commands.

Temperature Caps

Printer behavior settings can cap setpoints before commands leave Cindr3D.

Common defaults:

  • Max nozzle temperature: 280 C.
  • Max bed temperature: 120 C.
  • Max chamber temperature: 60 C.

Raise these only for hardware that is actually built for higher-temperature printing.

High-Temperature Warning

The high-temperature warning asks for confirmation above a soft threshold. The default threshold is 250 C.

This is useful when a printer is usually used for PLA or PETG but occasionally prints ABS, ASA, PC, or Nylon.

Thermal Runaway and E-stop

Recommended shared-printer settings:

  • Surface firmware-reported thermal runaway or heater faults as high-priority alerts.
  • Require confirmation before sending M112 emergency stop.

Emergency stop should be reserved for real machine faults. Use pause, cancel, or heater-off controls for normal operation.
