Second thermocouple daughterboard not recognized

atmark

Hi

I'm currently setting up Duet 2 Wifi for my Hangprinter. Today, I was trying to setup three thermocouples on two stacked daughterboards. First I had issues to get a temp reading from the second thermocouple that was connected to the first board.

As I'm working with Tobben's firmware, and the setup uses some of the expansion pins to control the ODrive boards, I suspected that it could be related to the non-standard setup.

So, I disconnected the ODrive cables and flashed the Duet with the latest v2.05 firmware. That helped me to get a reading from both thermocouple of the first board. The second board though remains silent. I only get the 2000deg reading.

Also, I switched the boards just to be sure they are both working, and they are. This is firmware/config related, but I'm not sure where to look.

Any hints?

Please provide your config.g file.

@dc42 Oh wow, I didn't expect a response that quick I already left the lab, so I can't send you the config file at once, but I essentially used the Tobben's example config.

So, I'll try to quickly recreate the config settings based on Tobben's file:

I haven't found a solution yet. Any ideas?

@atmark I have the same problem although my arrangement is a little different.
I am using thermistor for bed.
PT100 daughter board for extruder heater.
Thermocouple daughter board plugged into PT100 board piggy back.
No response from thermocouple board, not even 2000’C. Just ignores it.
I am using duet firmware v2.05.
I’m sure it worked before with earlier versions.
I want to display chamber temp using thermocouple board.

I will post full details and config file once all the Christmas celebrations are over and I’ve sobered up

JuJuDelta

It's working fine now, I had forgoten to put the M141 command in config.

https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M141_Set_Chamber_Temperature_Fast

So I have
M141 H2
M305 P2 X102
in my config.g

Firmware is 2.05

@atmark Can you check which version of the thermocouple daughter boards you have? The older boards are MAX31855-based, the newer ones are MAX31856-based. This will change the M305 assignment. As it says https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Connecting_thermocouples#Section_Duet_2_WiFi_Ethernet_and_Maestro

If your daughter board uses MAX31855 chips then the terminal blocks labelled 1 and 2 on the lower daughter board will be temperature measurement channels 100 and 101 respectively. If you stack two daughter boards, the terminal blocks on the upper board will be channels 102 and 103.

If your daughter board has two LEDs labelled FAULT then it uses MAX31856 chips. In this case the terminal blocks labelled 1 and 2 on the lower daughter board will be temperature measurement channels 150 and 151 respectively. If you stack two daughter boards, the terminal blocks on the upper board will be channels 152 and 153.

If you've got newer boards, and your config.g should be set up as:

M305 P1 X150
M305 P2 X151
M305 P3 X152

Though I did test this (I only have a PT100 daughterboard and a newer thermocouple board stacked on top), using X101 did report 2000C temps. So I'm not quite sure what's going on with your setup.

Lastly, make sure there is a comment mark ; before "Super Volcano 80W 24V" in your config.g. This should be ignored, but just in case it's causing problems, put it in.
