After updating to 3.4.0beta2: faulty heater 1, -273.1C.

jbarros

I have the same issue with 1 of my printers: 4~5ºC negative difference to real temp and ~3ºC jumping around in under 5s (ex: -23.5º ~ 26.4º)

Send M308 S1 (assuming the tool board thermistor is Sensor 1) and record the result, in particular the H and L values.

M308 S1
Sensor 1 (Extruder) type Thermistor using pin 20.temp0, reading 27.5, last error: sensor not ready, T:100000.0 B:4725.0 C:7.06e-8 R:2200.0 L:0 H:0

Send M122 B121 and record the reported VIN value

M122 b20
Diagnostics for board 20:
Duet TOOL1LC firmware version 3.3 (2021-06-15 16:12:58)
Bootloader ID: SAMC21 bootloader version 2.3 (2021-01-26b1)
VIN: 24.3V

Switch the tool board firmware to 3.4beta2.

Send M308 S1 again, check that it reports the same H and L

M308 S1
Sensor 1 (Extruder) type Thermistor using pin 20.temp0, reading 22.1, last error: sensor not ready, T:100000.0 B:4725.0 C:7.06e-8 R:2200.0 L:0 H:0

Send M122 and check that the reported VIN value is the same as before

M122 B20
Diagnostics for board 20:
Duet TOOL1LC firmware version 3.4.0beta2+1 (2021-08-08 13:53:53)
Bootloader ID: SAMC21 bootloader version 2.3 (2021-01-26b1)
VIN: 24.4V

Run the calibration procedure described at https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Calibrating_thermistor_and_PT1000_readings on the tool board thermistor input. If it's tricky to do the short-circuit calibration test, just do the open-circuit calibration, which should be sufficient to correct the reading at room temperature.

Send M308 S1 again to see the new H and L values

M308 S1
Sensor 1 (Extruder) type Thermistor using pin 20.temp0, reading 829.6, last error: short-circuit in sensor, T:100000.0 B:4725.0 C:7.06e-8 R:2200.0 L:-70 H:19

Check whether the readings are now correct.

The reading is more accurate but still lower and jumping around:
M308 S1
Sensor 1 (Extruder) type Thermistor using pin 20.temp0, reading 25.6, last error: sensor open circuit, T:100000.0 B:4725.0 C:7.06e-8 R:2200.0 L:-70 H:19

I am assuming that you do not have H and L parameters in your M308 commands in config.g, so it will use the values stored in NVRAM.

I do not, and my other printer with the same hardware Duet3 6HC + Toolboard v1.0, firmware and bootloader does not seem to have the same issue (haven't printed yet).

@jbarros thanks for that data. It seems that some tool boards work well with the new firmware, including all of mine and one of yours, while others give errors and when calibrated the L value is either very negative or out of range.

Please run the following two commands on your system, with firmware 3.4.0beta2 installed on the tool board, and report the responses (replace B121 by the CAN address of then tool board, if different):

m122 b121 p1007 a{0x806020}
m122 b121 p1007 a{0x4200442c}

Thank you for looking at this and I have 3 more Toolboards (that I wish now they were v1.1 ), all v1.0, if required for any testing.

@jbarros @CadetC @pixelpieper does any of you live in UK?

If this were an usual year I'd say we were a British colony at this time of the year but alas no, I live in Portugal

PS: I have a close relationship with one of your partners here, let me know if you want me to send you something through them (B2B shipping).

Unfortunately I don't live in the UK, in my case it's Poland

@dc42 sorry, I am in Switzerland...

@dc42
So what do you think? Are our problems caused by software bugs or could it be a hardware problem? What's the prognosis?
Should I return my toolboard as faulty under warranty? Or is there a chance that it will work as it should?

dc42

@cadetc I hope to find time to look into this again tomorrow.

@sotidii @CadetC @pixelpieper @Serge thanks for your patience.

I have tested the new firmware on 9 tool boards and I don't get a problem reading temperatures on any of them. So I would ask you for some more help. I will apply the changes made to the new tool board firmware a few at a time on top of version 3.3 in order to pin down which change introduced the problem.

I have put new tool board firmware at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/heg82sqvhpqb670/AAARGaD-zLptgnHj-PiqiwQBa?dl=0. Please can you try installing this firmware on your tool boards and let me know whether the temperature readings are OK or not. It identifies itself as version 3.3+test1.

My temperature is ok with this version.
