Smart-effector and PT100

bulka

HI,

I have a smart-effector and I'm trying to use a PT100 with a daughter board.

I connected the PT100 to the smart-effector ( label TEMP 2-pin black Microfit 3) and connected on smart-effector ( second and third pin) to the daughter board ( RTD1 - pin 2 and 3 ).

is that correct?
I checked many times and for me is ok but I have this error :

Error: Temperature reading fault on heater 1: sensor hardware error

this is the firmware:
RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet Version 1.21 dated 2018-03-21

I tried to change PT100 ( i had 2 ) and the result was the same.

Can anyone hel me pls?

As you are using a 2 wire PT100 connection, have you fitted the 2 jumpers to the daughter board?

Have you configured it correctly in the M305 P1 command?

bulka

I left the 2 jumper but never user M305 P1 command.

bulka

this is the result of command:

Heater 1 uses PT100 (MAX31865) sensor channel 201, 2/4 wires, reject 50Hz, reference resistor 400 ohms

bulka

in config.g file I changed the commant do :

M305 P1 X200

but same result

Was your PT100 board supplied with a 100 ohm resistor? If so, connect it between pins 2 and 3 of the daughter board terminal block in place of the wires to the effector. It should give you a reading of 0C.

bulka

yes, was supplied.

I connected to the same pins used ( 2 and 3 ) and this is the result:

1C is close enough to 0C because the resistor we supply has a tolerance of 1%. So either there is a break in the wiring somewhere, or the PT100 itself is faulty. If you have a multimeter, I suggest you measure the resistance of the PT100 and work towards the Duet from there. At room temperature it should be a little over 100 ohms.

bulka

I'm very lucky ..... I measured the resistance of PT100...and no value... (I used the same for the resistance supplied that is 100.8 ohms)

Great...never used and faulty....I'll ask to e3d a warranty replacements if possible...

bulka

I measured the other PT100 and the resistance was around 100 ohms.

Oh yes ! Works!

Now I changed with this one and it works! ...

Thx for the support!! Really!!
