DWC Fan UI Problem
-
Hello I seem to be having issues with the fan control on DWC. I have set multiple fans but I can only access FAN 0. This is my first time playing with duet and reprap but I'm guessing when I click the FAN 0 button I should be able to select my other fan? A heat sink fan in this case? If there are any files I can share to make helping easier let me know, I'm not sure which ones are used for something like this.

Please post your config.g file.
Keep in mind if the fan is set to thermostatic control you won't have overrides in DWC.

@jrcl you can't control thermostatic fans, which is why only 1 fan is displayed
-
@jay_s_uk I see, is that recommended for a heat sink fan? Or should I change it
-
@jrcl thermostatic is the way to go for a heatsink fan so no need to change anything
-
@jay_s_uk Got it, thanks! Is there a good way to manually test this fan then if you can’t access it on the UI?
-
@jrcl set the hotend temp to something like 50 degrees and it should come on when you reach 45
