context: i'm using repetier host 2.1.6 and repetier firmware 1.0.4 (or was it 1.4, dont remember now).
occasionally, especially after a print is finished, the host would completely go crazy and if i click to move an axis it would do something extremely wrong. no matter what i do (restart printer, disconnect and reconnect) i must have to close and reopen repetierhost for it to be functional again.
this was random and usually just after printing so it never made that big of a deal for me, until now.
i just experienced a catastrophic failure: in the middle of a print, i got a jam. happens. i stopped the print (print was running from sd but i had repetierhost connected) and went to move Z up. and it happened. instead of going up it went down, and brutally crashed into the part and squashed the bed completely down. now i have to assess the damage.
it's got to be fixed before it destroys somebody's machine
