Tool Board Heater Tuning Leading To Faults

@fcwilt All boards connected, happens ALWAYS when heating up. Never reaches peak or anything

But it seems to be happening when the cooling fan kicks in?

Have you changed the temp of the cooling fan to see if the fault tracks that temp?

How about adding a M570 for that heater and increase the default P parameter value (5) to something like 30.

@fcwilt Yeah, lowered the fan temp to 50, still faulted at about 78C.

M750 is at P10, will raise to 30

I'm interested to see which parameters affect when the fault occurs.

It seems we don't know exactly what condition is occurring that is triggering the fault.

Does a M122 report anything related to the fault?

I'd still like to see a photo of the hotend in case there is something obvious.

Perhaps you know the answer to this question.

He posted a screen shot showing 3 heaters displaying a fault.

Does a single heater faulting cause all heaters to display a fault or did all three heaters have to fault at the same time?

Frederick

@phaedrux Ask and you shall receive

KevinMar

@fcwilt It's a printer with 4 tools, just so happened that the 4th tool continued heating to ~120C before faulting (different M307 parameters). All 4 tools have the issue

I can't quite tell from that photo, but is the heater block itself making contact with the body of the extruder, or is there an air gap exposing the heat break?

Is there any adjustability on the duct to lower it slightly to direct more air away from the block/nozzle itself?

KevinMar

@phaedrux The Hemera tool and V6 hotend are assembled correctly.
There is no adjustability to the fan duct, but the ducting is aimed down to the nozzle. It's a fan duct by Rene Jurack, evaluated by an aerodynamicist at BMW

When the fault occurs have you issued a M122 to see if anything related to the fault is reported?

@kevinmar

Thanks for the M122 dump.

Sure would like to know what condition is causing the fault. I'm surprised that information is not being displayed somewhere.

You mentioned that one heater took longer to fault. Were you able to determine what settings were different that might be relevant?

Have you tried disabling the cooling fan to see if it is playing a role in the fault?

Frederick

KevinMar

@fcwilt Yes, I've tried disabling the fan.
The heater that took longer to fault had different M307 parameters at that time

@kevinmar said in Tool Board Heater Tuning Leading To Faults:

And it still faulted?

Perhaps @dc42 could explain what conditions can lead to a fault.

I was trying to point out that R, L and N are the only additional parameters for PT1000 devices.

Fumble

Was there any resolution to this?
I just ran tuning having swapped my V1 tool board for a V1.1 and fitting a new power supply and get the same thing the heater faults every time anywhere between 60 and 100 degrees. Replacing the new M307 parameters with the old works OK
