Heated Bed Power Blinking (RADDS)
-
Hello so I am having an issue where when I set the heated bed to say 60C, the heated bed is getting power in very short blips. Both the led next to the mosfet on radds, and the led on the heated bed, blink at a consistent rate when I turn it on. It looks like it is only on for a very short blip, every half of a second or so. In my room the bed lies around 22-23C, but after having the bed blinking for 30 minutes it reaches 26C, so it is working. I believe the issue is the PID parameters. This is my config file, if someone could tell me what I am doing wrong that'd be great. The bed I am using is a standard pcb heater from an old anet a8. Here part of my config.g…

Unless you are running an old firmware version, you should remove the M301 commands from config.g and tune the heaters as described at https://duet3d.com/wiki/Tuning_the_heater_temperature_control.
