Bed Heater Settings
-
No further responses as yet. In the interim, I have been through the ConfigG file with a fine tooth comb. I have examined every line of G Code in the Heater settings and cannot find any obvious errors. I have also re-run the Rerap Config tool and compared old G with new G.
Bottom line, if I plug the Bed thermistor into E0 I get a reading on the DWC Current Bed temperature of -273.1 degrees. If I plug the same thermistor into E1 the the Tool0 current temperature reads ambient room temperature
Current Bed settings in ConfiG are:
; Heaters
M308 S0 P"bedtemp" Y"thermistor" T113800 B4138 ; configure sensor 0 as thermistor on pin bedtemp
M950 H0 C"bedheat" T0 ; create bed heater output on bedheat and map it to sensor 0
M307 H0 B1 S1.00 ; enable bang-bang mode for the bed heater and set PWM limit

Well yes. If you unplug the bedtemp port it would show -273 which means open circuit. If the thermistor becomes disconnected it shows that temp which would throw a heater fault.

Are you sure you're not plugging it into E0?
Can you post the results of M122 and M98 P"config.g"?

From Wiring Diag for the Duet 2 Wifi it is hard to tell which is Eo and Which is E1.
Here is a screen shot when the Thermistor is plugged into my guess of E1My guess is that EO is closest to the Erase and Rest Buttons
-
E1 is closest to the edge of the board.
E0 is more to the center of the board beside E1.
Bed temp is on the edge of the board by the bed heater terminals.My guess is that EO is closest to the Erase and Rest Buttons
No that's E1

Most themistors on chinese silicone beds are B3950 T100000. Contact the seller for more information.your hotend is also not correct. you need to find out which thermistor it is.
-
@ Phaedrux If that is the case, why do I get The Tool 0/Heater 1 reading the bed thermistor ambient (no hot end connected at this point) when I plug it into E0 (closer to center of board?
DWC Screen shot above shows that situation. -
@Veti I will follow your advice and check with the seller. However, When I measure the Bed Thermistor resistance I get a reading of 113800 ohms.
My Hot End Thermistor is an E3D V6. I will check those settings as well. At the moment those are the results that the Rep Rap Config gave.
Thanks for your input.
-
Can you post a photo showing the wiring at the board?

and your room and the bed is exactly at 25C?
E3D V6
if its a genuine e3d its T100000 B4725 C7.06e-8

@Phaedrux As requested, Red wires E0 - Bed Thermistor
Blue Wires - E3D Hot End Thermistor
And DWC Screen shot with those connections and unchanged ConfigG

@Pierre52 said in Bed Heater Settings:
Red wires E0 - Bed Thermistor
Blue Wires - E3D Hot End ThermistorIf that's the case then your config is incorrect.

-
@Phaedrux Ah that has made a difference;
So the Bed Thermistor is reading correctly. I may have misled slightly on the Hot End Thermistor as it is actually one from a Beta test unit. I will be shortly fitting a Biqu H2 unit so will need to find the thermistor settings for that.
"Why aren't you using the bedtemp inputs ?" Very good question. Answer: Because I don't know what Gcode to use in Config G. If you could assist with that I would appreciate it.
I have also now unearthed the next minor issue in that the Bed heater is not responding. Possibly the clone DMWD SSR 40 DA I am using. I will work this through with my electronic guru mate who knows nothing about 3D printing but lots about electronics/
-
The gcode you had before would work if you plugged the bed thermistor into the bed temp port of the board. Its right beside the power terminals for the bed.
-
@Phaedrux Aha the light finally comes on. Thanks for all your help on this.
-
No problem. Glad you got it sorted out.
