I think I got a defective tool board
-
I purchased a tool board and distribution board from Filastruder. I wired the tool distribution board to my Duet 3 6HC control board and my printer's 24v Power Supply using the included data cable and some 20 Gage wire for power. I hooked the Tool board to the Distribution board with more 20 Gage for power and some 22 Gage wire crimped onto the provided tool board connectors. I was able to get the tool board to connect and the led's on the tool board and the 6HC stay in sync. I was even able to do a firmware push from the mainboard. However, nothing plugged into the tool board seems to work. Both thermister ports give wildly fluctuating readings, both with a thermister (Slice 300C) plugged in and the same reading with the thermister unplugged.
Am I doing something wrong?

Please share your full config.g and the results of sending M122 and M122 B# where # is the can address of the toolboard.

@kiendeleo I deleted my first comment, but looking at that, it seems your thermistor cable is shorting itself. Either that or your boron paste is still wet.

@ctilley79 It’s happening with the thermistor unplugged.

Can you try adding a G4 S4 command near the top of the config.g? This will add a short pause at startup to allow the toolboard to boot fully before sending it commands.
Also can you send M98 P"config.g" and post the results?

@phaedrux M98 P"config.g" did not create a result in the console
-
That's a good sign.

@phaedrux Well, I might have figured out what this might be.... @ctilley79's comment made me think so I unplugged everything except the thermistor and heater cartridge, and now the thermistor is responding correctly... weird
-
It looks like the issue was a reversed power and ground wire on my magnetic filament monitor.
