Proper way to set up the MCU monitoring.

Nuramori

I'm trying to tie a fan to the temp of the MCU, and am having problems finding the right way to translate the old format to the new for this particular sensor.

I have the following:

M308 S3 P"mcu" Y"mcu" A"Duet Board" ; Configure MCU sensor
...
M106 P2 S3 H100 T15:35 C"Duet Fan" ; Set fan 2. Manages Duet board fan.
...
M950 F2 C"!fan2" Q25000 ; Define Fan_2 for use - Duet board cooling - PWM fan

The fan and temp sensor does not show up at all. I'm sure I'm doing it wrong, but for the M950, I can't find how it's defined by pin, if at all. the hardwired names in the overview document doesn't mention the proper new nomenclature for the old virtual heater

I've see now that "drivers" will work as a sensor type, but "mcu" does not.

Try "mcutemp" or "mcu-temp".

@Nuramori said in Proper way to set up the MCU monitoring.:

M308 S3 P"mcu" Y"mcu" A"Duet Board" ; Configure MCU sensor

I have updated the documentation and confirmed that:

M308 S11 P"mcu-temp" Y"mcu-temp" A"Duet Board" ; Configure MCU sensor

or similar works

@T3P3Tony thank you!
