Heater temperature overshoot with new algorithm 3.2

deckingman

@appjaws Is it one of those 2 in 1 out jobbies? I had a quick look and noticed that they claim it's good for up to 350 deg C. That being the case, maybe it's just got a powerful heater. The hot end block doesn't look to be overly large so if they decided simply to bung a higher wattage heater in it, then it might just be too powerful for amount of aluminium surrounding it. That ~~would certainly~~ might lead to overshoot. Do you happen to have a (say) 30watt heater that you could fit?

appjaws

@deckingman No its a single BigTreeTech 1 to 1, although I do have a 1 in 3 out version which I haven't tried yet.

I don't think I have a 30W heater but I do have 40W ones I could try.

Would tuning using a lower P value say 0.8 instead of 1, in M303 and M307 help do you think?

Yes, I would have thought that should help.

@appjaws

Please post your complete config.g and config-override.g files.
What was the exact command that you user to tune the heater?

appjaws

@dc42 I do not use config-override, the tuning command was M303 H1 P1 S205

Just done anther tuning using P0.8

Please tune using M303 T0 S205 instead so that the tuning takes account of the print cooling fan.

appjaws

@dc42 Thank you for the reply, this is the result
M307 H1 R3.525 C171.7:136.5 D10.05 S0.70 V24.6 ;Auto tune with M303 T0 S205

This is a lot better so I now have an overshoot of 5.8 but it still takes a long time to settle.
I could cope with that by carrying on manually waiting to start a print.

Is there a parameter that I could use to ascertain when the temperature is settled?

dc42

I seem to remember that @deckingman had trouble with the Diamond hot end heater being over-powered too.

You could try increasing the R parameter a little (e.g. by 10%), or increasing D by about 30%.

You can use conditional GCode to compare the actual temperature with the target temperature.

That was certainly the case with the 5 colour Diamond which by default, comes with an 80 Watt heater. I fixed that by changing to a more conventional 40 watt heater - hence my recommendation to @appjaws that he try a smaller heater - maybe 30 watt or less.

As an aside. I suspect the reason why RepRap.me thought that an 80 watt heater was a good idea is because of the heat creep issue that the 5 colour has. I guess the 80 watt heater melted everything - including the the filament that is in what should be the cold side of the heat breaks
(I found that using a bigger heat sink fan worked somewhat better ).

appjaws

@dc42 thankyou, I tried the changes for R and D but it made little difference.

Eventually the temperature does stabilise so I need to have a check prior to the print start

With my limited skills I have tried to have a condition to check the heat.heaters[1].current
but I end up in a loop or it is ignored.

Could you suggest a suitable test please
