Duet Wifi Thermocoupler Daughter board issue.
-
So I setup my board with the Duet Thermocoupler daughter board, but i am not getting any readings for "current" except a 2000c and I/O error fault. I read just about every wiki on this site and tried numerous things but nothing changes. i'm using E3D TYPE K THERMOCOUPLE (CARTRIDGE) and have set it in the 0 slot (using 100) on the daughterboard, but nothing i'm still getting the i/o error and 2000c. I did try connecting the Thermocoupler to E0 thermoistore1 on the board and change the G Code to see if maybe the Thermocoupler wire was bad. I did start getting a reading , but it was high like 350c and stable. but it was reading something. so, what does tell me? I'm thinking of either two things; my G code is wrong or the daughter board is bad. As i have tried just about every variation of G code I could think of. I'm at a lost. and i don't know how to troubleshoot the daughter board. I did try taking a wire and jumping over the connection on the daughterboard (read somewhere in the forum or wiki) and still got the same readings. I am open to any suggestions at this point.
NOTE: this is a new printer build, so it hasn't even printed anything yet.

Which version of the thermocouple board is it? If it's the newer version with two Error LEDs on it, you need X150 in the M305 command instead of X100 - see the instructions on the wiki.

That was it. I must have read the wiki a hundred times and did not catch the version of the daughter board. set my G code to 150 and voila, it works. thanks.

I just checked the wiki and although the instruction to use channels 150-153 was included in the Hardware paragraph, it wasn't mentioned in the Firmware Configuration paragraph. I'm sorry if this misled you. I have now corrected it.
