CODE HMS_0300-0100-0001-0004 Severity: Medium Difficulty: Intermediate

Micro-LiDAR Camera Calibration Failure

The print head toolhead controller failed to calibrate or receive valid telemetry from the dual-wavelength Micro-LiDAR sensor module. The system triggers this HMS safety lock when optical reflection readings fall below the required SNR threshold during pre-print bed scanning or initial toolhead self-test.

CODE HMS_0300_0D00_0001_000B Severity: Medium Difficulty: Intermediate

Micro-LiDAR Calibration Failure

The toolhead micro-LiDAR optical assembly failed its baseline reflectance or focal calibration routine prior to print start, tripping safety checks for first-layer inspection and dynamic flow calibration.

CODE HMS_0300_0D00_0001_0001 Severity: Medium Difficulty: Intermediate

Micro-LiDAR Calibration Failure

The toolhead micro-LiDAR optical sensor failed its calibration routine during auto bed leveling or first-layer inspection. The sensor could not capture valid optical return signals due to an obscured lens, surface interference, or communication breakdown over the FPC ribbon cable to the toolhead TH board.

CODE HMS_0300_0100_0001_0004 Severity: Critical Difficulty: Intermediate

Toolhead Communication Abnormal / USB-C Bus Packet Loss

The Motion Controller (MC board) in the rear of the printer has lost reliable CAN-bus or USB communication with the toolhead TH board. The printer pauses print jobs and shuts down nozzle heating to prevent thermal runaway.

CODE 0300-8000 Severity: High Difficulty: Intermediate

Toolhead Communication Lost

Error HMS 0300-8000 indicates the AP mainboard has lost signal communication with the toolhead TH board via the USB-C bus cable, halting printing to prevent nozzle crashes.
