  • Network access

Physical Connection

  1. 1

    Connect to network

    Connect the F370 to the plant network via the rear Ethernet port. The printer uses DHCP by default.

  2. 2

    Set static IP

    On the touchscreen: Settings > Network > Ethernet > Static IP. Set to 10.0.100.x range.

  3. 3

    Connect edge node

    Ensure the Flowstate edge node is on the same subnet as the printer.

Machine Configuration

  1. 1

    Enable GrabCAD Print API

    Install GrabCAD Print on a workstation. The API exposes printer status, job progress, and material levels via REST endpoints.

    The Flowstate edge node polls the GrabCAD Print API and bridges data to MQTT/Sparkplug B.

  2. 2

    Configure SNMP (optional)

    The F370 supports SNMP for basic status. Enable SNMP v2c in printer settings for supplementary monitoring.

Verification

  1. 1

    Query GrabCAD API

    From the edge node, query http://<printer-ip>/api/v1/status. Verify printer state and material levels.

  2. 2

    Dashboard check

    Printer appears in Flowstate with build progress, temperatures, and material usage.
