Setup temp01 sensor on Toolboard for ambient
-
If I wanted to attach a standard thermistor to temp01 on the toolboard and just monitor the ambient temperature within the printhead enclosure or on the stepper motor, is this possible ?
I've managed to get an IDEX up and running just by following the guides and reading the forum, I'm almost embarrassed this seemingly simple task eludes me ...

It's possible. I can't say that this is the most correct way of doing it but I've just configured my misc. temp sensors to unused heaters:
e.g.
M308 S1 P"temp1" Y"thermistor" T100000 B4138 A"radiator" ; configure thermistor for measuring radiator temp
M950 H1 C"out8" T1 Q0 ; configure heater for 'extruder' (NOT USED)Here I'm not using H1 or 'out8' for anything. Of course configure to your thermistor and input ('temp1' for me).

The M950 line isn't necessary if you just want to monitor the temperature. In Duet Web Control, if you click on the Extras link in the tools pane then you will be able to display the extra temperature in the chart.

Thank you both, like I expected, embarrassingly simple.
