Disabling Heater Fault

sozkan

Hello All,

As it`s seen here I keep getting heater faults before completion. It is a dyze design Typhoon heater. Are there any people using it successfully? What are better parameters?
Are there any ways to disable pausing? However, during the overheat it is happing. instead of pausing why it is not cutting power?

What firmware version are you using?
Have you done a PID tuning and saved the results?
What parameters are you using?

I have done PID earlier, however, it was not successful. Therefore, tried to find correct settings experimentally changing the values.

I think the Firmware-3.1.1

However, the heat bed is also a problem. In the middle of heating around 32 celsius, it is giving errors like "rising temperature is slower than it should be!" The heated my own built 4 kilowatts 120cm diameter massive part. So it is taking at least 15-20 minutes to warm up

PID test-taking ages in the heated bed. That's the reason I use the most reasonable values too.

PID tuning for very large and slow bed heaters has been improved in the recent 3.4 beta7+ firmwares. You may wish to try those, or wait for 3.4 RC1 coming soon. Even updating to 3.3 stable should show an improvement over 3.1.1. So perhaps in preparation update to 3.3 stable and try tuning again. You would need to update to 3.3 first before updating to 3.4 anyway.

I have updated now 3.3 version. I wanted to make Auto PID tuning but, Dyze design has 2 heaters with different power on one single block. Therefore, what do you recommend for testing? because they influence each other.

I'm not familiar with the Dyze Typhoon but it sounds a bit like my own design which has two heat zones (in my case, they are somewhat isolated from each other by a secondary heat break). The way I approached the problem was to PID the secondary (upper) heater as if it was a single heater starting with both heaters at room temperature. Then I let the hot end cool and PID tuned the second (lower) heater as a tool so that it has two values (with and without fan). Admittedly, this does not take into account the fact that one heater has an effect on the other, but it seems to work and I don't get any faults.

Another approach would be to set one heater to (say) 100 deg C while PID tuning the other. This might give a better fit. The problem with setting one heater to print temperature while PID tuning the other, is that the heater to be tuned will be starting at a temperature much higher than normal ambient, which might give a worse fit.

EDIT. Another thing I have done is because one heater has an influence on the other, I set a wide tolerance on the heater fault detection parameters as follows:

M570 H1 P30 T20 S180
M570 H1 P30 T30 S180

H1 is the lower heater and I've set it to 30 seconds (P30) and 20 degrees (T20) and to cancel a print if the fault persists for 3 minutes (S180). H2 is the upper heater which has a 20 degree tolerance.

Use with caution - the wider the tolerance the less safe your printer will be in the event of a genuine fault.

@deckingman Thank you very much for the valuable information. I think it is more stable than before. The main problem two heating zone on a single block and individual sensing points somehow require to be tuned same time. But like you said preheating the untested one before the test is a wise idea to be close to perfect tuning.

However, the Heatbed still trying to Autotune for 9 hours. No idea when it will finish or the quantity of try.

@deckingman recent releases of RepRapFirmware support the A parameter for PID tuning to set the ambient temperature. This may also help with a (pre) heated second heater?

Thanks - I'll bear that in mind. My hot end heaters seem to be working reasonably well but now that I've got some sort of model, what I might try is, starting from room temperature, PID the secondary heater but start heating the primary heater at the same time (or as close together as I can send those commands). Then do the same to tune the primary heater by starting the secondary heater at the same time as I start the PID tuning. That would simulate what happens normally when the hot end is being heated.

I have tried all the possibilities to get rid of temperature fault rising error. But somehow the problem not going please help.

I have tested all versions of the firmware now I am at the latest one. As suggested, I have kept warm the H1 while I am doing PID on H2 that simulated the real-time condition. But on every PID test shows a different value.

The strange thing is, the fault is happening after 2-3 hours of the start of the printing. Problem on H2 not always over-temperature, sometimes lower temperature. I doubted the temperature control is being held while gcode interpreted.

I have also tested active heat but no printing it is no problem at all. After 24 hours even it was stable.

Board: Duet 2 WiFi (2WiFi)
Firmware: RepRapFirmware for Duet 2 WiFi/Ethernet 3.4.0beta7 (2021-12-16)
Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.26

For some reason, the H1 seems no problem, but H2 is causing the issue.

PID result also seems problematic :

Warning: heater behavior was not consistent during tuning
Auto tuning heater 2 was completed after 3 idle and 25 tuning cycles in 1678 seconds. This heater needs the following M307 command:
 M307 H2 R2.996 K0.308:0.000 D8.50 E1.35 S0.40 B0 V24.4
Send M500 to save this command in config-override.g

@sozkan What does the temperature graph look like during a print? Are there sudden excursions or gradual changes? Can you grab a screen shot and post it.

deckingman

Also - following on from this thread, I wrote a little macro for heater tuning multiple zones. It's working well for me https://forum.duet3d.com/topic/26910/strategy-for-pid-tuning-multiple-heat-zones

sozkan

@deckingman The green curve represents the H2 is unstable during the print but after 2-3 hours of printing starts. I don't have a proper capture yet. While problematic during the printing, it is not in the active or standby with no printing. I doubted if the filament act like cooler while printing. I always find it time-based settings are not really perfect for such a situation.

It is the result of M307 Do you recommend me to reduce or increase some parameters?

M307 H2
Heater 2: heating rate 2.996, cooling rate 0.308, dead time 8.50, max PWM 0.40, mode PID, calibrated at 24.4V
Predicted max temperature rise 539°C
PID parameters: heating P7.0 I0.150 D41.7, steady P7.0 I0.308 D41.7

Excuse my ignorance but just asking: Since we have sensors, why it is crossing the limits and keep powering and fault detection can only find out? can it not be possible to get real-time thresholds to start energizing and stop between thresholds band? in this case, PID engine could only search for the thresholds gap?

deckingman

@sozkan Please post your entire config.g and config-overide.g if you use it. Something looks wrong because the error messages relate to tool 0 not getting hot enough and a heater fault on heater 0 which exceeded it's allowable temperature. But heater 0 is normally the bed heater and wouldn't normally have an allowable temperature limit of 220 deg C, nor would it normally reach 245 deg C. So it looks like you might have something configured incorrectly.

@sozkan I don't see anything there which would explain the error message related to heater 0. Maybe the message itself is erroneous ??

That aside, I see that you are limiting the PWM value when you tune the heaters. Is there a reason for that? Have you tried tuning them with a PWM value of 1.0? If so, what happens?

I note also that you have commented out the fault detection lines for heaters 1 and 2. Given that you have two heater which interact with each other, you might want to re-instate those lines to give you that 30 degree allowable excursion.

Have you tried tuning the heaters using the macro I suggested?

Can you test this beta version as well?

@deckingman said in Disabling Heater Fault:

@sozkan I don't see anything there which would explain the error message related to heater 0. Maybe the message itself is erroneous ??

That aside, I see that you are limiting the PWM value when you tune the heaters. Is there a reason for that? Have you tried tuning them with a PWM value of 1.0? If so, what happens?

I note also that you have commented out the fault detection lines for heaters 1 and 2. Given that you have two heater which interact with each other, you might want to re-instate those lines to give you that 30 degree allowable excursion.

Have you tried tuning the heaters using the macro I suggested?

As far as I remember PWM 1.0 is not suggested. However, I have tried today while testing your macros. I suddenly smell a smoke heavily cable burn type. But I have not seen any evidence of burn. It was a bit scary because all the bunch of cable together and it is high voltage!
Since there is not short yet, I am still trying to figure out what was burned.
