Duet Wifi - how to set cooling fan?

droftarts

@eranglr ~~You have it mapped to the tool T0 with M563 P0 D0 H1 F0. So it won't be active until the tool is active~~. Actually, that's not it at all!

Check that you have connected the fan to FAN0, and not the 'Always on' pins. See the wiring diagram: https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Duet_Wiring_Diagrams

@droftarts connected it to FAN0 (not always on).

The fan is always on even when I turn the duet with no SD card inside.

@eranglr Can you send M122 and post the reply?

Ian

eranglr

@jay_s_uk yes, it is.
Could it be a jumper or something like that?

@eranglr my guess is you've blown the fan mosfet.
Can you take a high quality close up photo of the area around the connector, specifically the area between the fan connectors and the two LCD headers

eranglr

@jay_s_uk This is a brand new card, so I doubt if I blow the MOSFET.

jay_s_uk

ok then, i'll let someone else step in and support

eranglr

@jay_s_uk Just for fun, where's the mosfet, and are there 3 mosfet (one for each fan)?

droftarts

@eranglr And it would be very unlucky if it's blown all the mosfets, as he said it was the same for FAN1 and FAN2.

Is there any chance the fan you are using is shorting out to ground somewhere else? Is it wired directly to the fan pin, or does it go through something else?

The MOSFETs work on the negative side of the fan, so the fan gets +ve volts all the time, so if there is a short on the negative side, it will always be on.

If you can post a photo of your wiring, that may help.

jay_s_uk

they are here for reference

eranglr

@jay_s_uk Doesn't look burnt.

eranglr

@droftarts The fan should be connected directly, but I'll check again to make sure.

eranglr

@droftarts Well, you were right!!
I connected a different fan directly and it worked perfectly.
I guess that the fan minus is touching the ground somewhere.. I'll need to check where.
Thank you!!

droftarts

@eranglr You're welcome!

eranglr

@droftarts Is there a smart solution to the wiring on my printer:
I have two fans that their negative is shared.
Is there a way to control the cooling fan somehow, or do I have to re-wire the fan to have an isolated ground?

droftarts

@eranglr I don't really see a way. Fan polarity is important; see https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Connecting_and_configuring_fans#Section_Caution
You could wire the positives together, but to switch them individually, you need the negative side connected to individual fan (or heater) MOSFETs. You may also have problems if the fans draw different current. Best to wire them separately.

Ian

jay_s_uk

@eranglr is it an anycubic printer?
I ended up fully rewiring mine

eranglr

@droftarts Ok, I'll rewire the fans.
