Unable to configure bed heater
-
@engikeneer You just gave me an idea. I'll try editing the M307 code.
-
@engikeneer EDiting the code directly didn't work either. It's still complaining.
-
post your full config and config override

I would suggest deleting the config-override.g file and then re-run the heater tuning with M303 and when it completes use M500 again to save it, which should create a fresh config-override.g file.
-
@phaedrux I'll give it a shot.
-
@phaedrux That did not work. I got the following message:
Warning: heater behaviour was not consistent during tuning
Auto tuning heater 0 completed after 4 idle and 25 tuning cycles in 3679 seconds. This heater needs the following M307 command:
M307 H0 B0 R0.317 C276.8 D1.57 S1.00 V22.7
Send M500 to save this command in config-override.gAs with all tests, the beep alarm would go off each time the bed heats up. I went ahead and saved the code with M500 but the issue remains. I would be happy if I could just disable the alert. It appears to function fine.
-
@phaedrux I think the issue is the board is treating the bed heater like a nozzle heater. It is running tests with the fan on and fan off.
These codes:
M308 S0 P"temp1" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138
M308 S0 P"temp0" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138They look identical. Perhaps there is a code for bed heaters.

What M303 command are you using to tune the bed?
M303 T# will tune the heater as a tool with the fan
M303 H# will tune the heater as a heater without the fanhttps://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M303_Run_heater_tuning
-
@phaedrux I thought I was using H. I'll double-check when I get home. But the M308 command, shouldn't the T100000 B4138 be different for bed?
-
@weevil depends what thermistor you have. B4138 is the default the config tool uses so is almost certainly not right for your setup. You probably should find out the correct values for your thermistor (for both hotend and bed).
Having said that, it should only affect how accurate the measured temperature is (and probably won't make much difference at lower temperatures used by the bed). -
@engikeneer The thermistor for my Keenovo pad is an NTC100K if that helps.
Also note, the heated bed size is 300x300. -

Chances are the B value should be B3950 in that case.
-
@phaedrux Thanks, I'll try that (fingers crossed).

@phaedrux M303 T# produces this error:

M563 P0 S"MYTHprint" D0 H1 F0
M563 P0 D0 H1 F0You have configured Tool 0. There is no Tool 1.
Although I'm not sure why you are getting the fan running when the heater is.
Also you have a random H without a value:
M106 P1 S1 H T45
Doubt it's causing the problem, but can't hurt to fix.
Isolate, substitute, verify.

@weevil said in Unable to configure bed heater:
M106 P0 S255
This may need to be M106 P0 S1 H-1 to work correctly as a part cooling fan. That might have something to do with it.
-
@theruttmeister My bad, for some reason I was thinking T as temp probe, not tool. Using the code M303 T0 S60 goes to the nozzle. I need this to test the bed heater. I'm not sure what code I am missing.
-
For the tool you use M303 T0 S### (or M303 H1 S###) and for the bed heater you use M303 H0 S##.
The tool tuning is intended to allow the algorithm to use the part cooling fan during the tuning process so that it can compensate for any fan cooling effect. It's not supposed to do that when tuning the bed though, so that may be a bug. Or maybe it's taking into account the fan effect for the bed heater now as well.
-
@phaedrux Yeah, it's still running tests with the fan. I'll see if the error goes away after the test.
