# Document Instructions

QIDI_Max3 is a server-side software that interacts with the screen in the Maxx3 model system. This document contains our source code, and we provide the safer solution to update it:Download the packaged file to a USB drive and insert it into the machine for updating.
QIDI provides a packaged version file in the version bar next to it. Please download the compressed package file starting with MAX.
We have provided multiple different versions of source code. Please select the branch you want to download, and the name of the branch is the corresponding version name.

## Detailed update process

#### Update Package File Selection

Note that all updates cannot be updated from higher versions

We are equipped with two different probes for the Max model, one is a regular probe and the other is a Bltouch probe. Different types of probes require different configuration files.
So we have placed configuration files suitable for two different probes in the upgrade package. You can freely choose to adapt to the configuration of the probe you are currently using, but this requires you to perform some operations on this upgrade package file. Don't worry, it is just a simple file operation, and we will provide a complete operation example here.

1. Download the latest upgrade package file and unzip it in the current folder, open the QD in it\_ The Update folder, as shown in the figure below, shows two different configuration files inside, and you only need one of them.

<p align="left"><img src="other/step2.png" height="60" alt="sample"></p>
<p align="left"><img src="other/allfiles.png" height="180" alt="sample"></p>

2.Identify the type of probe you are using

<p align="left"><img src="other/Bltouch.png" height="720" alt="sample"></p>

3.Keep only the configuration file of the corresponding probe, delete the other one, and rename the remaining one to 'printer. cfg'.
As shown in the following figure, you can use this update package to update your machine

You may be worried about why the max model has a plus model in the configuration file. Please don't worry, this is for users who may have just reset the storage in the machine. The reset version will fall back to the ancient version, making it difficult to recognize the firmware with normal names. You don't need to worry about the existence of these files, which will affect your upgrade. The system will find the files it needs to update itself, The extra files will not have any impact on it.

#### Packaged files

1. Select the latest version in the version release bar next to it, download the compressed file package starting with MAX and extract it locally.
<a href="https://github.com/QIDITECH/QIDI_MAX3/releases/tag/Max3_V4.3.10/MAX3_V4.3.10.rar">Jump link </a>
2. Place the files in the USB drive, such as

<p align="left"><img src="other/sample.png" height="240" alt="sample"></p>

3. Insert the USB drive into the machine's USB interface, and an update prompt will appear on the version information interface. Click the update button to restart according to the prompt.

Different from the usual method of directly accessing the fluid page through an IP address, the QIDI version sets the default port number to 10088, so you need to add `:10088` after the machine's IP to access the fluid page</br>
The 3D printers of QIDI are based on Klipper.On the basic of Klipper open source project, we have made some modifications to it's source code to meet some of the user's needs.At the same time, we have also made modifications to Moonraker, so that the screens we set can correspond to the operations on the page.
Thanks to the developers and maintainers of these open source projects.Please consider using or supporting these powerful projects.
