Tutorial: Disable power loss resume feature (vase mode and scarf seams stutter)

Printer stutters when printing fast with a lot of Z changes.

PLR feature writes to emmc very fast, and overwhelmes main MCU with writes.

To disable PLR features and have good speed vase mode do this:

(copy and backup all files you change), and dont update OTA (it will reset some files) - Do at your own risk OTA or this below changes!

Step 1:

Login into ssh to sovol Zero MCU user=sovol pass=sovol

Step 2: in /home/sovol/ you will find plr.sh and clear_plr.sh

in plr.sh delete all and write:

#!/bin/bash

exit 0

in clear_plr.sh delete all and write:

exit 0

Step 3: in /home/sovol/klipper/klippy/extras/display/menu.cfg

delete line 18:

RUN_SHELL_COMMAND CMD=clear_plr

and line 235:

RUN_SHELL_COMMAND CMD=clear_plr

Step 4:

in /home/sovol/klipper/klippy/extras/gcode_move.py

Delete all and paste this version of code (mainline version of code without sovol power loss resume features):

Step 5:

in your printer.cfg (/home/sovol/printer_data/config/printer.cfg) comment out:

#[include plr.cfg] (put # in front of line)

(you can optionaly delete plr_cfg if you dont want to look at it)

Step 6:

Restart klipper and enjoy your fast machine in vase mode or scarf seams :slight_smile:
