Hotend heater fault status

kroybal

I have two toolboards connected via the tool distribution board with T0 under address 20, and T1 under address 21. I am using out0 on both boards to power my hotend heaters. The sensors work and are displayed as being paired with each tool however, when it comes to throwing some heat at it, my DWC reports they fault out in a matter of a second.

Here is my current config.g

Hi,

Where are the M307 commands for the two nozzle heaters?

Did you run heater tuning and forget to include the results in the config.g file?

@fcwilt I had the M307 commented out for the hot ends after I tried heating it up. I tried auto tune then realized the toolboards do not support auto tuning. I will need to tune those heaters manually or via the mainboard. Is the issue likely the M307?

kroybal

UPDATE:

M307 H2
Heater 2 model: gain 340.0, time constant 140.0, dead time 5.5, max PWM 1.00, calibration voltage 0.0, mode PID
Computed PID parameters for setpoint change: P13.4, I0.482, D51.4 Computed PID parameters for load change: P13.4, I0.949, D51.4

M307 H2 A340.0 C140.0 D5.5 B0

Should be what I update in my config.g correct? Either way if I connect the heater to the open out3 port on the mainboard the heater fires up like a champ but faults out via the toolboard.

Even with the updated config.g and the M307 command being present with the tuned parameters.

fcwilt

Hi,

I'm surprised that auto-tuning is not supported. I wonder why.

I've got a D3 main board and a tool board but I have not had a chance to work with them.

Perhaps @dc42 will respond to you.

@fcwilt Right on, more of a concept question here. If hypothetically the board wasn't getting a high enough current (i.e. 2-8A) would the out0 does the heater fault out? I plan on conducting a test for current/voltage to see what kind of power I can expect heading towards the heater.

Heater tuning is not yet supported on expansion or tool boards (M303). Support is planned in release 3.3.0.

from the link:

A heater on an expansion or tool board can only be controlled by a temperature sensor on the same expansion board

I am measuring my hot ends with pt100 sensors on a temperature daughterboard. I feel as though as I will have to swap around my arrangement, perhaps swap my extruder driver to the main board and run my two hot-end carriages (they move independently along the x-axis). I also have IR filament monitors I need to setup.

Currently:
Driver 0 -- X (left carriage/X axis)
Driver 1 -- X (right carriage/U axis)
Driver 2 -- Y1 motor
Driver 3 -- Y2 motor
Driver 4 -- Z1 motor
Driver 5 -- Z2 motor
Toolboard 20 Driver 0 -- E0
Toolboard 21 Driver 0 -- E1
out1 -- signal to bed idec relay
out2 -- signal to chamber idec relay
temp0 -- Bed thermistor
temp1 -- Chamber thermistor

Revisions implemented:
Driver 0 -- E0
Driver 1 -- E1
out1 -- left hot end
out2 -- right hot end
Driver 20.0 -- X (left carriage)
Driver 21.0 -- X (right carriage)
20.out0 -- signal to bed idec relay
21.out0 -- signal to chamber idec relay
20.temp0 -- bed thermistor
21.temp0 -- chamber thermistor

this way my extruder motors are monitored by filament monitors and pt100 on the same board. And my heaters are all being monitored by sensors on the same address.

This issue was resolved for those who experience a similar issue... I had my hotend heater mapped to a toolboard using pt100 sensors on the mainboard. Some rewiring and swapping pins around was in play.
