Dear Ankermake M5 recipients,
To help you better understand and utilize M5, we have put together a brief informational article that we hope will be helpful to you.
Important: Read Before Assembling
Yes, we know that it can be a pain to read the instructions, but we've received some messages about the damage that has been caused due to improper assembly. Before setting up M5, please read the quick start guide or watch the assembly video.
Note: Please pass the cable under the gantry frame through the bottom plate hole before the silver brackets are installed onto the base.
Download the AnkerMake App and the AnkerMake Slicer
Please download the Ankermake App from the Google Play Store or App Store.
The beta version of the AnkerMake Slicer can now be downloaded from the AnkerMake Software Support page.
If you are using Prusa or Cura, please refer to the following article to set it up.
Set Up the AnkerMake App and Update the Firmware
After downloading, follow the app operation guide to set up the AnkerMake App and update the firmware. Keep your M5 firmware up to date for the best experience! You can also refer to this video.
Note: The firmware takes several minutes to update. Once you see a red dot in the right corner, the firmware update is finished. An "Update" window will pop up. Click "Update" to finish, and your M5 now has the latest version.
Set Up the AnkerMake Slicer
